Errors were encountered while processing:

This is after I changed to the Desktop folder from root. I get similar errors when I just put in the code with out going to desktop.
Help?
Did you perhaps download a different language version of OpenOffice? The quoted command is for the US language version so you have to change the US part in the command to the language version you downloaded. In other words, check that the part after /OOO320-m12_native_packed-i_en is exactly the same as the filename you downloaded.
Do the same for the last command in the original post.
