[ubuntu-in] Error Openoffice.org requires Java runtime environment (JRE) to perform this task. Please install JRE and restart Openoffice.org

[Ramnarayan.K]

Hi

am running version OOO.org 3.0.0 on Ubuntu 8.10 (installed from a
download from the openoffice website). Ubuntu 8.10 ships OOO.org 2.4
by default.

Mostly things are ok but some time back i had made an impress
presentation (on an older OOO) with some gimmicky stuff - objects
flying, bouncing, fuding, video, audio. Now when i try to run the
presentation i get this error message and the video and audio don't
run.

The error message is
"Openoffice.org requires Java runtime environment (JRE) to perform
this task. Please install JRE and restart Openoffice.org"

So far, with the exception of this error , everything seems to work
fine in OOO.org 3.0.0, any suggestions as to what i can do,

I found that this might the problem
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7217396&postcount=5)
that openoffice.org3-gcj is not installed

The problem is i don't know how to get this file becase the OOO was
not installed via synaptic

So any ideas how to get this file / and or any other solution
