Can't open any Libre Office docs in 12.04

rated 0 times [ 2] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 9357 / 3 Years ago, mon, september 13, 2021, 6:59:01

This error message pops up when opening a document in LibreOffice:

LibreOffice 3.5

Read-Error.

An unknown error has occurred.

I can, however, open a fresh new document. This is obviously not desirable behaviour.

EDIT: I tried opening a Calc doc which I used in my 11.04 installation (which is now 12.04). The documents are as they always were, in my Documents folder. Impress files seem to open fine. I've not yet tried a Writer file yet, as I don't use them too often.

What is the problem?
