LibreOffice would always crash at a point about 35% through the splash screen, so I couldn't use the UI to disable the use of Java. I checked with sysctl -a and also by dumping all strings in the kernel, and "stack_guard_gap" isn't a valid kernel parameter. If I edited the LibreOffice config file "javasettings_Linux_x86.xml" to look like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>  <java xmlns="<a href="http://openoffice.org/2004/java/framework/1.0">http://openoffice.org/2004/java/framework/1.0</a>" xmlns:xsi="<a href="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance</a>"> <enabled xsi:nil="false"/> <userClassPath xsi:nil="true"/> <vmParameters xsi:nil="true"/> <jreLocations xsi:nil="true"/> <javaInfo xsi:nil="true"/> </java> LibreOffice 6.0.6.2 00m0(Build:2) would find the java virtual machine, update the config file, and then crash as before. The (partial) solution was to rename /usr/bin/java and /usr/lib/jvm/ AND code the javasettings file as above. With these steps taken I can at least edit documents in --writer and spreadsheets with --calc. Creating a native database requires Java, so that doesn't work, but I was able to attach to a spreadsheet and treat it like a database. Not sure about Access/Jet or SqLite databases yet. Of course, anything else that requires Java is now broken. Java version is OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 10.0.2+13-Ubuntu-1ubuntu0.18.04.4) OpenJDK Server VM (build 10.0.2+13-Ubuntu-1ubuntu0.18.04.4, mixed mode) I tried creating a "Hello World" Java program and it worked as expected. Hmmm... "Mixed Mode?" Also, this version of was intended for Ubuntu 18.04.**4**, whereas I have 18.04.**1**.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
