Yes.   I don't have the system with openoffice handy at the
moment so I can't tell you the whole path, but just go to
where you have OO installed .../conf I think and do:  'touch soffice.cfg'

Later, if you find some things you want in it, you can add it, but
for starters, empty is good enough.

There is also another file like that too (eg non-existant) that needs
to be created but empty is enough.  I don't remember the name right now.
It would help if their web page had some separate getting started
documentation.
