Hi,
I removed the openoffice 1.1 release from my system (kernel 2.6.9) for install the full OpenOffice 2.1.
But after trying to start the new soffice, nothing happen. (may be java problem ?)
Could someone help me ?
Regards?

How did you install 2.1? What sort of errors did you get?

I assume you installed the rpm's, you should also install the rpm for the menu. The command starting openoffice has changed.
$ooffice -writer

I have seen this before.

Check your process table (ps -ef) for a (probably bunch of) running javaldx processes. Ifyou have them, what is happening is that javaldx has found a java binary to run which requires that you accept a EULA. The java is trying to pop up the EULA so you can accept it, but due to the way javaldx invokes it, the EULA pop-up never happens.
So either you can figure out how to make the java binary pop up it's EULA so you can accept it (and if you figure that out please reply to the list so I can learn) or edit the soffice script and comment out the call to javaldx (which will probably break other things but so far my users have been happy with this "solution").
