Terje J. Hanssen	Wednesday 07 December 2005 5:45:50 am Trying to get the OOo2 extension v2 beta2 to work for a new site hosted at an eZ partner using Exponential 3.7.2 on SLES9. * I downloaded and extracted the ooo_extension_documentation from http://ez.no/content/download/940...ffice_org_extension-2_0-beta2.tar.gz * accessed the URL <mysite>/oo/import and imported the following example files to our site: - general_document_example - openoffice_org_article_import_document - ooo_extension_documentation Next using the corresponding URL <mysite>/oo/export to export the same files back to my OpenSuse Linux 10.0 PC, result in empty (0 B) OO2.odt files with no content. As the previous empty file bug has been reported as fixed according to http://ez.no/community/bugs/oo_export_generates_empty_files I wonder if something can be missed in the setup at my Exponential provider, e.g regarding the zip, or maybe other reasons?

Bård Farstad	Wednesday 07 December 2005 5:49:49 am This probably happens because you don't have the zip command line properly functioning. Check the installation guide for details on how to set up the zip path's in oo.ini. You can also test the svn version of the extension, it has added some additional tests so it should provide better information about what's going wrong. --bård Documentation: http://ez.no/doc

Trying to get the OOo2 extension v2 beta2 to work for a new site hosted at an eZ partner using Exponential 3.7.2 on SLES9.

* I downloaded and extracted the ooo_extension_documentation from
http://ez.no/content/download/940...ffice_org_extension-2_0-beta2.tar.gz
* accessed the URL <mysite>/oo/import and imported the following example files to our site:
- general_document_example
- openoffice_org_article_import_document
- ooo_extension_documentation

Next using the corresponding URL <mysite>/oo/export to export the same files back to my OpenSuse Linux 10.0 PC, result in empty (0 B) OO2.odt files with no content.

As the previous empty file bug has been reported as fixed according to
http://ez.no/community/bugs/oo_export_generates_empty_files
I wonder if something can be missed in the setup at my Exponential provider, e.g regarding the zip, or maybe other reasons?

Hi Bård,

I use a remote Exponential hosting provider.
Do you mean oo.ini on the Exponential server or locally on my OpenOffice PC?
