[solved] .doc & .epub not opening

Hello!

I reinstalled artix and for some reason these file extensions are not working with the same programs I used before. I'm using libreoffice-fresh to open the .doc and foliate to open the .epub, but they're not responding. I've attached a screenshot:

-Libreoffice says "General Error: General Input/Output Error", and foliate first gives a "Permission" error and then adwaita warnings. Opening the .epub  in zathura gives the following errors:

I've tried installing:

via yay:
zathura-pdf-mupdf-git

via pacman:
jre-openjdk
ebook-tools
libgepub

Thanks for the help.

Hi tintin! Thanks for the help, but I'm not using neofetch at the moment.

Regardless, the latest -Syu broke my nvidia. Instead of booting nvidia-xrun, I was forced to use startx, thus using my intel card (dual gpu laptop). Opening the documents through this route now allows me to see .epubs and .mobis. Thanks nvidia!

I don't particularly care much about the .doc I was trying to open, so I'll just make a new one. I guess this means the problem is solved. Thanks!
