I had also the described problem, and a simple re-installation of the same WPI archive did help.

But now, it does not work anymore even I reinstall AOO. I tried 4.17 and 4.18. I have no idea anymore what to do. There are three different computers envolved, and an additional installation where I did not update the DLLs.

Check to make sure you have all the prerequisites with rpm running the following string in a command line:

yum install libc libgcc1 libgcc-fwd openssl curl libjpeg libxslt libicu zlib libxml2 mmap pthread urpo libstdc++6 libstdc++ uclip

Anything in popuplog.os2 or a trp file? Whate does the stdout or stderr say? As AOO usually is not vanishing silently.
I'm pretty sure there is a pattern why it's the same on 3 different computers.
For sure we need more information to help further.

I am using Version 65.1 of Libicu, not the 68.1 that gives me problems. You can try if this is.
I have installed OOO4.18.
