Unable to make OpenOffice service listen on particular port

[SumanthPrabhakar]

Hi, I am using OpenOffice 4.1.6 on a Windows 10 OS machine. I have installed the OpenOffice successfully and then tried to add the OpenOffice as a service with the help of nssm software using the below statement in the command line.

nssm install OpenOffice4.1.6 "C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenOffice 4\program\soffice.exe" -headless-accept=socket,host=localhost,port=8300;urp;

Now the service is running but not listening on port 8300. How to make the OpenOffice service listen on port 8300. Need help here. Your help is appreciated.

On my Linux system:

Code: Select all

openoffice -headless -accept="socket,host=localhost,port=8300;urp"

Look up open port 8300:

Code: Select all

netstat -tulpen | grep :8300
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:8300          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      1000       149747     12268/soffice.bin 

WIndows 10 also has a netstat program.

For the records: LibreOffice uses long option names with 2 dashes:

Code: Select all

libreoffice --headless --accept="socket,host=localhost,port=8300;urp"
