Unable to install extensions on windows using unopkg

Post by castorident »

I am writing an extension for Openoffice 2.3 using a Linux laptop (Suse Linux Desktop 10), Netbeans 5.5.1, OpenOffice.org API plugin for Netbeans 1.1.0, JAVA JDK 1.5.0_14.

My extension (.oxt) is generated using openoffice plugin menu within Netbeans and on my Linux laptop.

I can install and use my extension without any problem using Openoffice on my Linux laptop. However when it comes to install it on Openoffice 2.3 on my Windows XP laptop I get the following error from unopkg :

Code: Select all

###### Progress log entry 2008-03-25 00:24:05 ######
Copie : Challenge.oxt
Activation : Challenge.oxt
 Activation : types.rdb
 rollback...
  rollback finished.
ERROR: (com.sun.star.ucb.CommandFailedException) { { Message = "Une erreur s'est produite lors de l'activation : types.rdb", Context = (com.sun.star.uno.XInterface) @621e194 }, Reason = (any) { (com.sun.star.registry.InvalidRegistryException) { { Message = "Couldn't open registry file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Pr%C3%A9sident%20GO78/Application%20Data/OpenOffice.org2/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/1F3.tmp_/Challenge.oxt/types.rdb for reading", Context = (com.sun.star.uno.XInterface) @0 } } } }
anybody got this problem before and can help me ?

Is this just when using unopkg? Does the addon installer inside of OOo fail also?
