Description zahra 2016-07-08 12:00:25 UTC
Created attachment 126127 [details]
this is the problematic document that i could not open it in libreoffice because of the crash.

hi every one. 
i have a very valuable docx document. 
every times, when i want to open this document, libreoffice crashes immediately and wants to recover my document. 
but unfortunately recovery also has no result and libreoffice crashes for me after completion of recovery. 
i tested this documents on windows and also i realized that this file makes libreoffice crash even on linux, i dont know about mac and other operating systems. 
this file can be open in openoffice and microsoft office without any error and crashes. 
i use windows xp and even it causes the crash on windows ten. 
i tested many versions of libreoffice since version 4.3.0 and even the newest version which is 5.1.4.2 now. 
i am not shure about the previous versions before 4.3.0

steps to reproduce:
1- double click in this document. 
current behaviour:
sometimes libreoffice crashes and wants to recover this file. 
sometimes fatal error SEH exception access violation. 
expected behaviour:
this document can be opened properly without any crash. 
hope you solve this bug for me. 
i pray for you and request Allah's mercy and grace for you.
Comment 1 MM 2016-07-08 13:07:39 UTC

Version 5.1.5.1 x64 (RC1) still crashes when opening the attached file under Windows 10.
Maybe patch was not included in time for 5.1.5.1 (compiled on Jul 13th)?
Comment 8 Timur 2016-07-20 16:59:39 UTC
Pedro, you can see for yourself (by clicking on 5.1) that it was included: wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan
Caolán, I also have a crash with libo-master~2016-07-12_09.25.31_LibreOfficeDev_5.3.0.0.alpha0_Win_x86. Should this one be reopen?
Comment 9 Caolán McNamara 2016-07-20 19:58:38 UTC
caolan->timur:

I definitely fixed *a* bug with this cause it doesn't crash for me under Linux anymore and if I revert my fix it crashes again. I guess there must be another problem. Is there any automated crash report backtrace associated with your master windows failure ?

Backtrace of v5.1.5.1 x64 crash under Windows 10

Thank you for the tip on the Release Plan, timur. But because the patch was added the day before RC1 was compiled I wasn't sure it was in. If it is, then here is the backtrace.

Backtrace of LO 5.3+ 32-bit crash under Windows 7 x64

(In reply to Caolán McNamara from comment #9)
> Is there any automated crash report backtrace associated with your master windows failure ?

I'm aware of automated crash report from 5.2. but I don't know how it's used, and how backtrace is created. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/5.2 doesn't say, and it should.
I attach my backtrace from WinDBG.
Comment 13 Caolán McNamara 2016-07-21 08:51:28 UTC
The most recent bug I found here in scrolling past page 44 was in SwFlowFrame::IsKeep which is at the top of Pedros bt, so that's promising.

Timur's though is in some other place which hasn't triggered locally yet.
Comment 14 Caolán McNamara 2016-07-21 09:37:47 UTC
Timur's one though does state that the unwind info might be wrong, while Pedro's doesn't. Perhaps they are the same underlying problem. Lets wait until there are builds available with the above fix and have another test then.

Comment 21 Caolán McNamara 2016-07-22 16:29:17 UTC
Presumably pBoss is null, but without being able to reproduce it its probably pointless to continue to handle each local oddity as they come up. I might have a windows environment in a few weeks to be try and reproduce the full set of issues, until then someone else can have a try.

Running with OpenGL disabled (what one would expect for a user still on Windows XP) neither test document "crashes", the first scrolls backward and forward across page 44.  The second takes a loooong time to open, but then behaves scrolling and paging.

And, no apparent issue with OpenGL enabled.

With 32-bit WinDbg attached, had some issues with RTL in en-US local, but those were are 1st & 2nd instance hangs.  Without the debugger attached the documents seemed to function.

Was this patch committed only to the 5.1 branch? Unfortunately there aren't any Windows daily builds except for the Master branch.

I tried a daily from the Master branch and it still crashed

If those patches are included in 5.2.0.4 than I'm afraid it's not fixed yet.

The document in this bug report does not contain any images at all so the problem is not the same. But maybe the patch for 102073 also solved this problem. I will check when 5.2.3 is out.

Comment 35 Timur 2016-11-04 10:07:14 UTC
It seems that this remains Windows-only fileopen bug now, as already noted, since Linux can be open. Tested with master.

This is crash report with LO 5.2.0.4 on Windows 7:
crashreport.libreoffice.org/stats/crash_details/58616547-7caa-4311-ac55-5c8ea5cb75e6
This is crash report with LO 5.2.3.3 on Windows 7:
crashreport.libreoffice.org/stats/crash_details/a8ddf995-7fcd-402a-9c7c-e7f607db222a
Windows master also crashes.

This docx has 202 pages in MSO, 170 pages in OO 3.3. (aligned left), 17 pages in LO 4.1.6 (still aligned left) 18 pages in LO 4.2.8. (aligned right), how to find for versions which crash on fileopen or scroll started from LO 4.3, 241 pages in Linux 5.3+ master (which is actually rather fine).
If bibisectRequest makes sense here at all, that would be for fileopen bug. But I wouldn't call this a regression, so I remove it.

Added back regression and bibisectRequest

Took a little time to test with older versions (because the document never crashed OpenOffice): LibreOffice branches 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 load the document without crash. The first branch that crashes is 3.6 (tested with version 3.6.7.2 under Windows 10)

Comment 41 Timur 2016-12-29 08:39:30 UTC
LO 5.3 beta 1 on Windows opens it with 199 pages and scrolls without crash. Seems like solved in 5.3. So this should be WorksForMe.
But, since there were fixes here, I close as Fixed and change title to note that Windows fix came in another bug.

Does it still crash when using the old layout engine?

> Does it still crash when using the old layout engine?
Yes.
For testers: The layout is seen in Help-About. To use disable new/use old layout engine it one needs to set environment variable SAL_NO_COMMON_LAYOUT=1.

Thank you for the instructions, Timur. I can confirm that with Layout Engine: old the document still crashes LibreOffice. This means that the bug is fixed in 5.3 but can not be back-ported, right?
Comment 45 Timur 2017-01-04 15:29:48 UTC
This is not about simple bugfix that can be backported, it's new development, Harfbuzz layout engine from 5.3. 
Note: Since old code is dropped in 5.4, no layout is shown in Help-About there.

That is fine, please post the crashreport link for its stacktrace and the signature it shows.

Unfortunately there is no Crash Report link. The Crash Report dialog just shows Error.
Any suggestions?

That is a shame, if the "Breakpad" based report gatherer is not running to catch a minidump and submit it to the project crashreport server, you have to revert to catching the dump/mini-dump yourself and analyze--or catch the stack trace--either done with WinDbg against symbols for the project.

Unfortunately the document now crashes LibO 5.3.0.2 under Win7 x64.
This is the first version that crashes LibO under Win7

Maybe this is related to the changes in issue #104969 ?

So, those both are crashes against signature "rtl_uString_acquire", added to the signature block.

http://crashreport.libreoffice.org/stats/signature/rtl_uString_acquire

And with 5.3.0.2 on Windows 8.1 64-bit I also reproduce a crash, but at a different location and more in line with the issues that Caolán had already squashed.

But on Windows 8.1 Ent 64-bit en-US with

With and without OpenGL rendering with new rendering, on scrolling through the document I receive the original crash between page 36 and 44.

Open attachment 126127 [details] the .docx religious text in RTL Persian with "Traditional Arabic" font.

Scroll or page to page 36, at the bottom there is a large block of footnotes held as rows in a table. On opening, they are compressed over top of each. A zoom into the page causes the table to expand removing the over written. Continue to scroll to page 43 there is another large table holding foot notes, it too will expand.  Scroll back up to page 36 and then down to 43.  Shortly have a crash.

added a check for the null pOldBoss I see in 5.3 to master to make it assert in debugging versions and continue without crashing in non-debug versions. I've added a 5-3 variant to not crash at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/33304/ and 5-3 at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/33305/

this may help the windows crash

hi pedro, stuart and all testers and programmers that helped me to use libreoffice more properly and without worried about openning and reading my books!
you are very helpful and i dont forget your kindness and goodness!
in the five times daily prayers, i remember you and request divine special blessings and graces for you all.

also hi Caolán
i realy appreciate your efforts and endeaversto resolving my issues.
i sincerely pray for you in my five time daily prayers and request divine extremely mercy and blessings for you.
could you please provide the patch for version 5.2.5.2 of libreoffice too?
i realy admire you and your tireless efforts to help people even for free!
i realy wish that can open all of my documents properly without any hang or crash with libreoffice.
most of my documents are in docx format which users of microsoft office give me.
does your patch also resolve the problems with other books which i have?
i mean that is this bug duplicate of the

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101125
and also this bug which you mentioned its a duplicate of this bug?
i mean
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100859
could you please test these two bugs and compare the result with the current one?
could you please solve this issue with libreoffice 5.2.5.2 also?
i tried different versions of openoffice since 4.1.1 until the current version 4.1.3 and it does not crash for me.
i mentioned this and asked these questions because i am not a programmer and i am completely unfamiliar with coding and computer  programming.
but also i realy wish that i can open my documents and read all of them completely as soon as possible!

yeah, basically writer doesn't support tables in footnotes (try it in the ui and its not allowed) but the apis the docx import uses don't enforce that, so you get glitches with tables in footnotes. Not crashing is good enough for this bug.

But since MS Word does allow to insert tables (and apparently people use it) wouldn't it make sense for LibreOffice to use it too?

Furthermore, when a document containing a footnote table is saved as ODT the whole table is simply eliminated without any warning (and the user will only realize this when the document is reopened)

Is there some document rule that says that tables in footnotes are not acceptable?

If such a rule exists, then the text in the table should be converted to footnote text, if not then tables in footnotes are a missing feature...

hi.
today i downloaded libreoffice 5.2.6.1 and installed it.
its extremely great and compatible with xp beyond my immagination!
i dont know how to appreciate God for its great favor, also you and all developers to helped me eventually find my favorite version and open all of my books properly!
i have more than 90 islamic books in different folders!
they are realy divine treasury for me.
today i tested them and i could open them in 5.2.6.1 without crash!
its incredible and one divine miracle for me!
i dont know how appreciate God for this extremely great favor and also you all developers and programmers that helped me my dream (openning my documents without crash and complete compatibility with windows xp) became a reality!
i am extremely happy and i cant discribe my happiness and feeling in english.
even openning my books speed is increased very much in 5.2, i dont have any crash after exiting on windows xp and i study all of my books without any afraid!
i should be grateful to this favor for my lord.
because God says in the quran:

And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce [it].
i sincerely pray for you in my five times obligotary prayers because God says:

And when you are greeted with a greeting, greet with a better [greeting] than it or return it; surely Allah takes account of all things.
and also i pray for you and i am sure for acceptance in the divine court.
because God is extremely merciful, accepts our prayers and said:

And when My servants ask you concerning Me, then surely I am very near; I
answer the prayer of the suppliant when he calls on Me, so they should answer My
call and believe in Me that they may walk in the right way.

you presented me the best version of your program for free, and i present my sincere and honest prayer which i always remember you, your kindness and i request divine infinite mercy, graces, blessings, bounties and favors for you all.
