Thank You for this! Did the trick for me!enry13 wrote:i have just seen that some debian users or maintainers have found where is the origin of this
problem and it is (strange!) related to the kernel version and java libreoffice extensions:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrepo ... bug=865866
Anyway i have not downgraded the kernel as they suggest but just removed
two java libreoffice-writer extensions that apparently cause the problem and that i
have never used or seen before (they are installed by default as example of extensions):
apt-get remove --purge libreoffice-wiki-publisher
apt-get remove --purge libreoffice-nlpsolver
After this libreoffice-writer is now running fine and for
me the problem is solved

Re: debian 9 libreoffice writer fails to start in 32bit inst
I had same problem.
I removed the following packages.
libreoffice writer is now launching.
Special Note:
Instead of removing this package, try disabling Java Runtime Environment.
Steps to disable Java in libreoffice.
1. Launch libreoffice
2. Tools -> Options -> Advanced
3. Uncheck "Use a Java runtime environment"
I got lowriter (libreoffice-writer) to launch.
I removed the following packages.
Code: Select all
apt-get remove libreoffice-gtk2
apt-get remove libreoffice-gtk2

Re: debian 9 libreoffice writer fails to start in 32bit inst
It's admirable to file a bug report but you should check if one has already been filed. There are now at least five for this bug starting from June 20.
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrepo ... bug=865303
There is also a workaround suggested that doesn't require removing packages https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrepo ... 865303#230 -

I've been discussing this regression with upstream develo[pers. It's
now understood and we have several possible fixes but we have not yet
settled on the best one.
You should also be able to work around it by temporarily disabling the
Stack Clash fix using the kernel parameter stack_guard_gap=1

Re: debian 9 libreoffice writer fails to start in 32bit inst
I've had the same problem. To fix it, go into another LibreOffice app (eg LibreOffice Calc). Click on Tools -> Options -> Advanced. Deselect "Use a java runtime enviroment".

Re: debian 9 libreoffice writer fails to start in 32bit inst
I'm a newbie and I learnt an easy workround for this problem. Open Libre Office in the terminal with: libreoffice --global. Works every time.
