Description samtuke 2017-11-01 19:36:46 UTC
Description:
When a template is already in use, and another template is opened via 'File -> New -> Templates -> [Select a template] -> Open', the following error message appears:

 creating a new document:
General input/output error while accessing /snap/libreoffice/39/lib/libreoffice/share/template/common/presnt/LushGreen.otp.

Using a snap version of LibreOffice on Fedora 26 via the 'Candidate' channel.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Impress. Open a template.
2. Select another template via 'File -> New -> Templates -> [Select a template] -> Open'
3. View error message

Actual Results:  
Popup error message

Expected Results:
The newly selected template replaces the old one in use.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This occurs when a template from a pptx file has been used as well (this is the use case which led to the discovery).

So it does not occur otherwise? (I could not repro with the templates that ship with Impress)
Is it tied to the Snap version or can you repro with a TDF build?

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the information.
