Set up UserInstallation in build

Post by anobody »

Hi,

I built the 4.1.1 in CentOS 6, the default UserInstallation = $ORIGIN/../.openoffice/4 is in installation directory. How can I set UserInstallation in build command to change the user profile in user home directory when each user calls soffice?

I tried to use export UserInstallation = $HOME/.openoffice/4 before calling main/configure, it did not change the value in bootstraprc. I've also followed instructions in viewtopic.php?f=74&t=12426 to run:

$ soffice -env:UserInstallation=file://${HOME}/.openoffice/4

It did not work in 4.1.1, tried "soffice -env:UserInstallation=file://home/hce/.openoffice/4", did not work either.

Appreciate anyone explain me a little bit details how the user profile directory can be set either during the build process, or invoking the soffice.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Hi and welcome to the forum!

I fear that this is a rather too technical question for the forum, there are no developers here and very few users build their version.
Have you tried to ask on the dev mailing list?
