Answer 1

Have a look at your event log, it should have more detailed information. Most likely your web server is not logged in as the "correct user":

I used libreoffice, unoconv and PHP-unoconv

You can install libreoffice from here MAC http://mirrors.adams.edu/LibreOffice/mac/LibreOffice_4.3.7_MacOS_x86-64.dmg

Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install -y libreoffice libreoffice-script-provider-python uno-libs3 python3-uno python3

for unoconv: Mac: brew install unoconv --HEAD

Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install unoconv

then you can use:
