The OOo Installation Site has all the latest info, however the best reference right now is an old Sun PDF available there called StarOffice 5.2 - Installation with Response Files I created a response file for what install options I wanted: CODE [Environment] InstallationMode = INSTALL_NORMAL InstallationType = STANDARD DestinationPath = <firstfree>\openoffice StartProcedure = MyStartProc EndProcedure = MyEndProc [Procedures] Sub MyStartProc ShowSetup End Sub Sub MyEndProc HideSetup DefuseRestart(True) End Sub [Java] JavaSupport = preinstalled_or_none And I run the actual setup like this: CODE %systemdrive%\install\OOo\setup.exe -r %systemdrive%\install\OOo\response.txt Enjoy!

You'll have to modify the installation response file line: DestinationPath = <firstfree>\openoffice From the aforementioned docs CODE DestinationPath Values d:\office5x <firstfree>\office5x <home>\office5x Default: <firstfree> + directory name of DefaultPath from the setup script You can enter the target path for an installation in absolute terms or relative to an identifier which the Setup replaces. '<firstfree>' will be replaced by the first drive letter found that has enough disk space to store the specified installation type (WIN/WNT). '<home>'will be replaced with the home directory (UNIX). You'd probably want something like ONE of these: <firstfree>\Program Files\openoffice (best one if it'll accept the space, it should considering it's used on *nix) <firstfree>\progra~1\openoffice (alternate to get around the space if needed) c:\Program Files\openoffice (of course you can force a drive) c:\progra~1\openoffice (either space or 8.3 way of course) DogMeat |

I made a multi-user install with all the OOo files on a networkshare. However, while with this each new user will simply get all the user-specific files when he first starts the program, there will be no file-associations. This also happens with a local multi-user install and is a well-known problem on the OOo forum. To get around this one of the users there posted a reg-file with all the file-associations. If I get around to it I will attach it here. You will have to a 'replace string with...' to replace the path of the program with yours. It's quite big really, about a 1000 registry entries...and I haven't tested it yet. I also can't get the orginal link because there is no official OOo forum and I got from one of the unofficial fora, of which there are plenty. Stay Tuned. To sum it up: OOo installer sucks... |

To Crusty01 :=) I agree on Your summing up. And I would like to add that the whole OO is really shakey - instable. Sorry, but that´s the case. / SwedenXP |

Hi, I'm installing OOorg v1.1.2 with this switch: setup.exe -r:Full\Path\to\setup.txt -debug QUOTE (setup.txt) [Environment] InstallationMode=INSTALL_NORMAL DestinationPath=D:\OpenOffice EndProcedure=PostSetup [Java] JavaSupport=preinstalled_or_none [Windows_Desktop_Integration] Register4MSWord=False Register4MSExcel=False Register4MSPowerPoint=False RegisterAsDefaultHTMLEditor=True [Procedures] Sub PostSetup SetReboot( False ) End Sub No the first time the program is run, I have a message box asking me: Another instance of OO has access to your preferences or is blocking them. A simulatnous access may create incoherence in your preferences. Before continuing, be sure that the user 'AUTORITE NT/SYSTEM' quits OO on <HostName> Are you sure you want to continue? (translation of the screenshot) I'm installing OOorg @ t-12 (cmdlines.txt). It ask me this only on the first user that runs OOorg (admin or not)

What would be the command to use to install openoffice 113 from the sfx file? This would save a lot of space if first the installer gets copied to hd,then extracted to same directory and then used the response file to install |

If you navigate to download.openoffice.org, you can download the latest beta (1.9.65), which rids the need of a response file. The install can be run from openoffice1965.msi, which can use the switches /qn and /qb for unattended installation.
