We had to manually created and populate the default path that

and I used rsync to copy my laptop /home/amon/.openoffice

I have no idea why the set up had not autopopulated this directory
and required such extreme measures.

A few comments on human factors. Although this looks like it
might be exactly what I want, for a person unfamiliar with
the terminology it is not at all clear how to proceed.
In Administer Wiki, I see Applications, but the
only thing which
seems to pop out is 'Extension Manager' which claims to not really
be safe to use yet. And it is not clear where an extension is
synonymous with a plugin, which is what the OfficeImporter is
documented as being.
You missed the "OpenOffice Server" administration section? From there
you can start the OpenOffice server, which is used by the office
importer module to import/convert office documents. Of course, you
need to configure the OpenOffice server connection first, and this is
described on
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Office+Importer+Applic…
(there is a link to this page from
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Features/OfficeImporter ).
Well, I installed pretty much everythings which
said libreoffice, as
that is the Ubuntu and Debian standard.
I hope you read my notice from my previous mail. I'm pasting it here:
"Note that there was an issue with the latest versions of both office
servers, http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6832 , which was
fixed recently in our code. So you either install on older version of
OpenOffice/LibreOffice (e.g. 3.2) or use the latest XWiki Enterprise
3.2 snapshot (becuse 3.2M3 wasn't released yet)."
Then I changed the openoffice.homepath=/usr/lib/openoffice/
It should be /usr/lib/libreoffice/ because you installed LibreOffice
and not OpenOffice.
Rebooted the VM just to be sure everything was
updated.
Force the current page to clear on my laptop.
In the Administer->Configuration->Open Office I tried to 'Update'.
It replies:
"Failed to execute the [velocity]
macro"
If you click on it you should see the full error message, including a
stack trace which is very useful to understand the problem. Otherwise
you can look at the server console/log.
Hope this helps,
Marius
