OpenOffice.org2GoogleDocs - export & import to Google Docs, Zoho, WebDAV
by Przemyslaw Rumik
Export, Update and Import your documents to and from Google Docs, Zoho and WebDAV servers.
With OOo2GD you may export to Google Docs, Zoho and WebDAV servers:
* Documents: ODT, SXW, DOC, RTF without modification, other known to OO.org after conversion to ODT
* Spreadsheets: ODS, XLS, CSV without modification, other known to OO.org after conversion to ODS
* Presentations: PPT, PPS without modification, other known to OO.org after conversion to PPT
For Google Docs you may export, update and import all your documents, spreadsheets and presentations, for Zoho you may export documents, spreadsheets and presentations, and import documents and spreadsheets, to WebDAV you may export what you are able to open in OO.org :-)
Needs Java 5+ to work.

Crashes when trying to configure
After installing the extension, I go to File > Export to Google Docs.. > Configure, and the OO crashes. I tried to just click Export to Google Docs on the toolbar and nothing happens. Using Mac OSX Lion.
Same problem
OS X 10.7.2
OO.org 3.3.0
Toolbar does nothing, and configuration crashes OO.
Failed to install
on windows 7 x64 Oo 3.3 - Could not create java implementation loader
Failed to install
I have windows 7 (32 bit) and OOo 3.3. Upon opening the extension manager after the download I get the message 'Could not create Java implementation loader' , and the extension will not enable.
Getting an error when installing
On Windows 7 (32 bit) OpenOffice 3.3 when installing this extension Windows tells me uno.exe stopped working end then I get the following error:
(com.sun.lang.disposed execution) {{{ message= ??? Disposed\X000a(tip=5588) unexpected connector loss context= com.sun.uno.xinterface) @0 }}}
"invalid credentials" error --> solved
I can install and activate this extension to LibreOffice 3.2.2, but when I try to upload the document I get an "invalid credentials" error.
I searched on the net and I found that this error occurs if your password includes the character "@"
Even now that I changed my password to : wordnumber without any other strange characters, I still get the same error.
---> SOLVED : I did give the wrong credentials :)
Configuring Crashes Openoffice every time.
I am running the latest version of Mac OS X 10.6.7. I have the latest version of Java and Openoffice and I just downloaded your plugin and installed it. When I try to configure it to sync with Google Openoffice promptly crashes every time.
Cannot configure
Mac OSX 10.6.6
OO 3.3.0
OOO2GD 2.3.1
I can see the Google Docs & Zoho menu on the File menu, but the options are grayed out and unselectable, so I cannot configure. From the pages here, it looks like this should be relatively straight forward to set up, and there are no other steps listed to connect OO to Google Docs.
Have I missed something?
Localisation - how to? ;-)
If you want to localize OOo2GD to new language, you may prepare new localization file and try to place it in your user directory (on Windows XP it is c:\Documents and Settings\), after this OOo2GD should can see new language. This language may be visible as country code (exactly as part of file name, so if you will call your localization file ooo2gd_toster.properties it will be probably visible as toster).
You may also (And this will be the best idea :-)) to send me this file with info who you are, and which language it is, and I will try to add your translation :-) (to contact with me go to http://www.przemelek.pl/kontakt)
Not working WebDAV in 3.3.1
Trying to add a new WebDAV server results with nothing. So, there's no possibility to use this way of syncing...
Localisation
Hi guys. Please, help me to find info how to localise this extension to Ukrainian? I tried to create a new file ooo2gd_uk.properties but that didn't help me. Thanks.
Error: POST method does not support concurrency
Every time I try to submit anything to Google Docs with this extension, I receive the error "POST method does not support concurrency" and then the process aborts. This is made even more frustrating my the fact that it used to work perfectly.
I'm running OOo 3.2.1 in Windows 7 Home Premium. I previously used the extension in older versions of OOo in both Win2k and WinXP64.
It suddenly started working
It suddenly started working again but I have no idea why.
Extension not working in OOo 3.3?
Installed OpenOffice 3.3 RC1 and this extension doesn't seem to be working anymore.
Other extensions work.
Have heard others with same problem.
Thanks anyway for a very useful extension.

Trouble in OOo 3.3
Am I the only one who's not getting this extension to work in OOo 3.3 RC's ?
Works for me.
Hi, just tested it and cannot reproduce.
I installed 3.3.0 RC 1 for Windows and I even didn't need to install OOo2GD, OOo reused my old installation.
Try to install OOo2GD again from http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/ooo2gd, as always you need to restart OO.org to start new plugin.
If it wont help, please share with information about your configuration.
If you are using Ubuntu it is probably known problem with Ubuntu for OO.org, #7 on http://code.google.com/p/ooo2gd/wiki/KnownIssues with "normal" versions of OO.org it may be fixed by apt-get install openoffice.org
You need also Sun Java.
Will not install
I have v 3.2.1 OOO320m18 (build9502) on mac os x 10.6.4, the extension will not install due to some 'bridging error'. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kjetil
No luck. I have tried
No luck. I have tried restarting and reinstalling both OOo and the extension but no icons/menus show up. All other extensions work. My system: Windows XP SP3, OpenOffice 3.3 RC1 and Java 1.6.0_22.
Edit: After going back to OpenOffice 3.2.1 the extension works again!
Not working on Ubuntu
I have had this extension for some time now and earlier this week it stopped working - the options no longer showed up in the File menu. I reloaded the extension, no good. I un-installed and re-installed OpenOffice and the extension,no good. I un-installed OO and removed the .openoffice.org directory from my $HOME, re-installed all, no good.
So now I am stuck.
I have:
OpenOffice 3.2.0
Java6 Open JDK
- java version "1.6.0_18"
- OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.8.1) (6b18-1.8.1-0ubuntu1)
- OpenJDK Server VM (build 16.0-b13, mixed mode)
Openoffice2googledocs gdocs_2.2.0
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Why isn't this working with
Why isn't this working with Zoho??? I try to Upload to Zoho, it says the upload completes, but my zoho account doesn't have the document. I have tried multiple times, my login info is correct. I'm boycotting google due to their abandonment of their previous open internet philosophy (I encourage others to do the same as well!), and zoho looks wonderful but the only problem is this plugin is not working.
The files are there
I test it, and indeed there is something strange. The files are uploaded and you can consult them in the Zoho writer, but not in the Zoho document manager. Try it and confirm.
I think it will be a good idea to explain to the zoho team.
Doesn't work on MacBook Air, MAC OS 10.6.4, Open Office 3.2.1

Ooo2Gdocs dialog boxes have crazy overspaced text!
7/4/2010
Hi,
Happy user in Windows and Ubuntu, so thanks for the extension!
However, just got a new MacBook Pro w/ OS 10.6.3, Java SE 6, 64-bit. Installed NeoOffice 3.1.1 Patch 1 and got your extension today, but so far I can't use it because all of the text within your extension's dialog boxes is spaced apart so far that the boxes extend well past the edge of my monitor, and I can't really read anything.
Here's a screenshot of what I see when I select to upload to Google Docs:

Using within a Macro
Is there anyway I can use the google doc addins within a Macro? This would be huge for me. The problem with sycing to docs is it changes the google id, I need to open the existing doc update it and save it automatically. Any help is appreciated. Thankjs
To install on Ubuntu 10.04
After a long search, I managed to install this extesión without installing the "official OpenOffice.org."
Install the packages related to "Java" and "JRE" in the Ubuntu Software Center. "OpenDJK Java 6", "Base of all Java", "Standard Java or Java compatible runtime", "OpenDK Java runtime (architecture independent libraries) and try.
The extension works perfect.

Not compatible with the latest version of the Google Docs editor
Trying to update a document created with the latest version of the document editor in Google Docs (enabled in Settings->Document Settings->Editing->New Version of Google Documents) results in a "Problem: Could not convert document".
It would be nice if OOo2GD could support the new Google Docs editor. Uploads are a lot truer to the original document.
display mismatch for import screen
Export is working fine for me, but the import screen is changing to useless during loading in. I have Ubuntu Linux Lucid (10.4) Netbook edition:

You need to reinstall OO.org in proper way
Don't know why, but OO.org shipped with Ubuntu is "strange", please look at issue 5) on http://code.google.com/p/ooo2gd/wiki/KnownIssues
Most important will be using apt-get install openoffice.org, this should resolve your problem.

Installation Fails
Im using 32 bit Ubuntu 9.10 2.6.31-20-generic with OO 3.1.1 OOO310m19 (Build:9420)
The installation fails with the error dialog
(com.sun.star.registry.CannotRegisterImplementationException) { { Message = "", Context = (com.sun.star.uno.Xinterface) @0 } }
OK
Incomplete/broken installation of OO.org
Under Ubuntu you need to install OpenOffic.org in proper way by using:
apt-get install openoffice.org
After this instalation of OpenOffice.org2GoogleDocs should work without any problem
Thank you for your help

Export to Google Docs: OpenOffice Crashes
When I try to export to Google Docs, OpenOffice crashes.
I'm using Mac OS X Version 10.6.2
Any help appreciated

As far as I know this isn't
As far as I know this isn't problem with extension but with OO.org on MacOS, here more details http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=92926. Strange is that from this what I know problem is visible only on OS X 10.6.2
Great Little Product - It would be nice if?
Something for the next release if it could handle sub-folders on Zoho Docs. At the moment it only appears to look in the main folder of your Zoho account when downloading/uploading.
Handling documents uploaded to GoogleDocs without conversion?
Hello,
Google Documents now can upload documents without conversion, e.g., complicated spreadsheets in Excel format that do not convert - see http://docs.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=50092. However, for me this extension's (v.2.1.0) "Get list" function only lists the documents that are in GoogleDoc format, others are "invisible". Would it be possible to also list and open the unconverted documents? I am running Debian GNU/Linux "testing" and OO.org 3.1.1.
Thanks.
it depends
It depends when Google Docs List API will support it, for now only supported thing with unconverted documents is uploading such files to Google Apps Premium accounts, rest of users cannot use this feature via API.
If Google will add to API features for uploading and downloading unconverted files it will be added to OOo2GD.
Error: "Could not convert format"
When I try to upload a .doc file, I get this error after a while: "Could not convert format". Anyone knows why??
File is probably too big
I'm guessing that your file is too big to upload to Google Docs, can you try to upload it with Google Docs Upload feature?
I need this file :-)
Can you create new issue here http://code.google.com/p/ooo2gd/issues/list and attach sample file which case this problem? Or can you send me this sample file to my address which you may find here http://www.przemelek.pl/kontakt?
Cannot Upload
Suddenly, when I try to upload (a file I have uploaded many times previousls), the extension hangs and gives the error:
Cannot convert document.
Why does this happen? How can I fist it.
Works with Google for Domain to!
I didn't think this would work with Google Apps for Domains to, but it did. It would be nice if you could choose where to store the login information though. Then you could store it in an encrypted folder.
It works with Google Apps for Domain
I'm using OOo2GD with my 2 accounts in Google Apps for domains in two different domains and it works.
I'm using it with Standard Edition of Google Apps and probably with premium.
String index out of range: -1
Hi,
Ubuntu 9.10, OOO 3.1.1 (OOO310m19, build 9420), java 1.6.0.16.
Menus did not appear when first installing. Remembered an old suggestion and installed twice, both times restarted OOO. Now menus appeared, but when trying to up- or download String index out of range: -1 message is given in alert box, together with another small message somewhere right side of screen Please wait... The normal alert message goes away when clicking but the small Please wait (it is also on a task bar with a Java logo) can be closed only when closing it from taskbar.
Configuration dialog from menu opens normally.
Best regards

Using Zoho with Yahoo Login
I log into Zoho using the Yahoo account option.
Is there a way to get this to work with this extension?
Thanks
