CentOS 6 not running UNOCONV correctly

[cgpatulski]

Hello,
We have migrated to a new server running on CentOS and we are having issues with UNOCONV not rendering previews of office files.

/usr/bin/unoconv --format=pdf
'/mnt/www/dev/rs/filestore/3/5_56b4985a802e658/35_f0ddca5ec9a1a4d.pptx'

But fails with the message:

UNO IllegalArgument during import phase: Source file cannot be read. URL seems to be an unsupported one.

On the old system (UBUNTO 8.04/UNCONV.5/OpenOffice 2.4) having openoffice-impress seemed sufficient to get these files recognized, but this seems not to be the case here.

Server details:

• CENTOS 6
• Apache 2.2.1
• PHP 5.3.3
• MSQL 5.1.4
• Python 2.6
• Unoconv .5
• LibraOffice 3.4

We use UNOCONV to support an application called ResourceSpace

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Any ideas?

Someone mentioned that unoconv doesn't work from NFS shares.
I have not verified this myself, and it would be very strange if that makes a difference, but it is worth to check. Could this be related ?

Sorry unable to verify--not on this project anymore.

Closing, we can reopen if needed.
