Description Ian 2018-08-20 23:39:53 UTC
I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017)
Processor:  3.1 GHz Intel Corer i7
OS:  MacOC High Sierra

I'm using Libre Office, Calc, Ver. 6.0.6.2

Problem Description:  (1) Linked, external files cause application to crash. (2) Removing external links doesn't quite solve the problem. Upon opening a file that once had an external link, I'm asked if I want to update the link. "Yes" causes a crash. "No" avoids a crash.

This bug is similar to bug 119141. In my case, I was trying to paste/link to another Libre Office Calc file (not to a web page).

Thank you for your quick replies. Unfortunately, the documents are my personal balance sheet and income statement. Everything in it is personal.

The good news is that I can manage to avoid doing things that crash the program (no cells linked to other documents).

Feel free to close this ticket. There's not more that I can do I think.

P.S. I am one who donates to the cause.

Not reproducible for me with my own file (spreadsheet linked to a csv data file).
Tested with LO 6.0.6 provided by PPA Ubuntu 18.04 x86-64.

Ok, so closing as InsufficientData. Feel free to reopen in the case you still encounter this crash with a file without private data that you can share.

Best regards. JBF

On the other hand, would you mind sharing the document privately with me so I can investigate the issue?
