1 An internally managed office server is an office process that XWiki starts and stops itself; to connect to one you run yourself, [[connect to an external Office Server>>documentation.xs.admin.exports.office-server-properties.connect-external-office-server.WebHome]] instead. To connect your wiki to an internally managed office server:
2
3 1. Install [[LibreOffice>>https://www.libreoffice.org/]] or [[OpenOffice>>https://www.openoffice.org/]] on the server that runs XWiki.
4 1. Open ##xwiki/WEB-INF/xwiki.properties## in a text editor and find the [[office server properties>>documentation.xs.admin.exports.office-server-properties.WebHome]].
5 1. Uncomment ##openoffice.autoStart## and set it to ##true##.
6 1. Uncomment ##openoffice.homePath## and ##openoffice.profilePath## and set them to the [[installation and profile directories>>documentation.xs.admin.exports.office-server-properties.WebHome||anchor="office-paths"]] of the office suite you installed.
7 1. Save the file and restart XWiki.
8 1. [[Administer the wiki>>documentation.xs.admin.base.content-organization.administer-wiki.WebHome]], select "Content" and then "Office Server". The "Server type" reads "Internally managed (local)" and the "Server state" reads "Connected":(((
