Fixing “Write Error – the file could not be written” error in OpenOffice.org on Ubuntu
By admin | May 6, 2010
Write Error
In OpenOffice.org on Ubuntu by default, the package openoffice.org-java-common is not installed. As a result, when you try to save using some filters in OpenOffice.org that require the Java Runtime, you may experience the error as a result. To fix, this install the package openoffice.org-java-common:
sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-java-common
This should fix the error, however you must restart OpenOffice.org for this to take effect.
