That probably because this

zipping everything is wrong (apart from that it lacks subdirectories). Instead,
copy the old document to file_new.odt and then *freshen* the zip using

zip -f file_new.odt content.xml

The reason is that the 'mimetype' file
a) MUST be the first entry in the zip
b) MUST be stored uncompressed plain text

Zipping everything (in shell expansion order if * is used) will violate both.

Alternatively, of course in a subdirectory that *only* contains the document's
files and directories, create a new zip with

zip -0 file_new.odt mimetype
zip -r file_new.odt * -x mimetype
