Hi Cassandra: Please check my posting dated June 26, 2013 and titled "Can't locate LibreOffice 4.04" for some comments, and other download links that may work for you. If you could confirm that the error message you received is the same as the one I describe, perhaps that might help someone resolve the issue as none of the LO folks seemed to be able to duplicate the problem.
As far as I can tell, this problem has been around for quite a while (since about the introduction of v4 which I think is the first time I encountered it). I have been unable to load LibeOffice from any of the "official" sites since then, either under Windows or Linux (as it happens, I just downloaded a recent version for Windows this morning and still got the same error message, so went to an alternative site). If any other users have run into this, it might also help if you reported it. Since the late 1970s, I've used probably every word processor known to man, including the early stand-alone machines as well as several proprietary ones, so I can state with some confidence that, although there are in fact some bugs in LibreOffice, I find it much more useful and much less annoying than products like Microsoft Word, so I would say it's worth whatever hassles you need to go through to get it running. It's also able to read and write Word documents (well, at least all but the most complex ones), so you don't have to worry about compatibility issues with your co-workers. Hope this helps ...
