@Joseph : please indicate how you are using Zotero and, if you are using an extension, please also indicate the version of the Zotero extension. Also please provide detailed steps of what you mean by "I attempted to add a Zotero reference" Setting to NEEDINFO, please set back to UNCONFIRMED once you have provided the requested information. Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been in NEEDINFO status with no change for at least 6 months. Please provide the requested information as soon as possible and mark the bug as UNCONFIRMED. Due to regular bug tracker maintenance, if the bug is still in NEEDINFO status with no change in 30 days the QA team will close the bug as INSUFFICIENTDATA due to lack of needed information. For more information about our NEEDINFO policy please read the wiki located here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bugzilla/Fields/Status/NEEDINFO If you have already provided the requested information, please mark the bug as UNCONFIRMED so that the QA team knows that the bug is ready to be confirmed. Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone! Warm Regards, QA Team MassPing-NeedInfo-Ping-20170502 I insert Zotero citations using the Zotero extension, through clicking on the "Insert Citation" button provided by the extension. I'm currently using Zotero extension version 3.5.9, although I'm sure it was an earlier version when I reported this bug. I communicated with Zotero developers about this and they tell me the freeze may have to do with bugs in Java (which the Zotero extension relies on). But they think it's impossible that the Zotero extension could affect which version of a file is recovered. The Zotero extension simply adds a text field to the current document and doesn't do anything complex like interacting with backup files. @Joseph: thanks for the reply, but we need more information and a reliable way to reproduce this: - which Java version are you using ? - assumption is that you are using a complete JDK and not a JRE ? - assumption is that AutoSave is activated under Load/Save ? - what time setting have you set the AutoSave feature to ? Not many QAers still use OSX 10.10 - is there a reason why you haven't upgraded to OSX 10.12 ? (hardware, or some other reason ?) Please also re-test with the current production version of LibreOffice from the LibreOffice website download page. Dear Bug Submitter, Please read this message in its entirety before proceeding. Your bug report is being closed as INSUFFICIENTDATA due to inactivity and a lack of information which is needed in order to accurately reproduce and confirm the problem. We encourage you to retest your bug against the latest release. If the issue is still present in the latest stable release, we need the following information (please ignore any that you've already provided): a) Provide details of your system including your operating system and the latest version of LibreOffice that you have confirmed the bug to be present b) Provide easy to reproduce steps – the simpler the better c) Provide any test case(s) which will help us confirm the problem d) Provide screenshots of the problem if you think it might help e) Read all comments and provide any requested information Once all of this is done, please set the bug back to UNCONFIRMED and we will attempt to reproduce the issue. Please do not: a) respond via email b) update the version field in the bug or any of the other details on the top section of our bug tracker Warm Regards, QA Team MassPing-NeedInfo-20170531 |
