Re: Office hangs at "Configuring Office Components" for 10 min (update)



Hello again,

I thought that I would post an update to the issue. The issue is it will hang on "Configuring Office Components" mainly Excel not loading fonts. Although it is more predominant on wireless systems (taking up to 15 min.)than on wired (taking up to 2 min). Evidently configuring office components is dumping a fair amount of information to the network home directory (during this phase it seems to write 137 files totaling 51.9MB with seemingly random names i.e. "REGEDOANHNFPLzqkkkkkk--------"). I don't see this happen when it is used with a local account. I have tried all the preferences that I can think of and the issue is still reoccurring. Of note this issue will only occur if I login to a different system each time. If I login to the same system performance is amazing. I just can't afford to have the 51.9MB being written each time a user logs into a different computer especially if they are on a wireless connection.

Thanks again!

Hello everyone,
So I thought I would throw this one out there. I am running a network home directory environment. With a mixture of wired and wireless clients. Which is working fine. That is all other applications except for MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint. The problem is that when you launch a MS app for the first login on a computer it takes around 10 minutes to startup. If I logout and log back in, no problem Office launches in under 5 seconds. Nice! But if I move to another computer the whole process needs to be repeated taking another 10 minutes. I have already moved "dofonts" from the Microsoft Office/Office folder as well as moved the Fonts to / Library/Fonts. Any suggestions?


Thanks in advance,
