I have 1000 .docx files that I want to convert to pdf so I have written a program to do this, but I can never get through all 1000 files before an error is thrown. I start a headless version of LibreOffice using soffice --headless --accept="socket,host=127.0.0.1,port=2002;urp;"
. I am using LibreOffice 4.2.0.4 and JODConverter 2.2.2. This is my conversion code (prior to this I just iterate all the .docx files in a directory):
try {
File inputFile = new File(sourceFile);
if (!inputFile.exists()) {
return -1;
}
File outputFile = new File(destFile);
OpenOfficeConnection connection = new SocketOpenOfficeConnection(host_Str,
Integer.parseInt(port_Str));
connection.connect();
DocumentConverter converter = new OpenOfficeDocumentConverter(connection);
converter.convert(inputFile, outputFile);
connection.disconnect();
return 0;
}
catch (ConnectException e) {
System.out.println("Openoffice listener exception!");
return 1;
}
I can always convert at least 50 files or so before an error is thrown; this is one of the errors I have had:

In every situation (so far), I have been able to retry the conversion on the docx file where the error occurred and the conversion has been successful.
I have looked at similar questions on this site but most them are for situations where an error is thrown the first time a conversion is attempted, whereas in my case there are always some successful conversions before a failure. I have also tried using OpenOffice with the same results. I have tried googling error messages but to no avail.
My question is why are these errors occurring, and what can I do to convert all 1000 docx files? Also I am aware of docx4j but I need to be able to convert .doc files as well which this does not support.
