Description chan2703 2018-08-03 08:58:27 UTC
Description:
I wanted to export the content as PDF but wrongly let the cursor stay on the SEND button.  In Ubuntu 16.04 the screen just blacked out for a while and then crashed.  In Ubuntu 18.04 the screen did not black out but crashed directly.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new/existing document
2. Press the File button
3. Let the cursor stay on the Send button or click the Send button

Actual Results:
LibreOffice crashes.

Expected Results:
Never used this function before.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Thank you for reporting the bug.
it seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice.
Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to
'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.

Same behavior.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a document with Writer
2. Scroll down to File > Send
3. LO freezes for a few seconds (or longer) then crashes 

I haven't changed any of the Tools>Options>Internet settings from the defaults, so e-mail is blank.

Crash also occurs in LibreOffice "Safe Mode".  

(Note that selecting File > Send does _not_ cause a crash for me in Calc, Draw, Impress, or Math; only Writer.)

My system info:

The issue (for me at least) seems similar to Bug 112930.  

A comment there says, "my crash linked with JRE. If disable option "Use a Java runtime environment" in Tools>Options>LibreOffice>Advanced, then LO works OK"

That's the same for me - if I disable option "Use a Java runtime environment", then LO does not crash.

This bug may also be a duplicate of Bug 108619.

Perhaps the original reporter could check if disabling using Java has the same effect (prevents crash).

I can't speak for the original reporter, but both workarounds from https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108619#c16 eliminate that crash on my system.  Thank you.

I upgraded LO to Version: 6.0.6.2, Build ID: 1:6.0.6-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 and turned off JRE as suggested by other users.  The problem was gone then.  

JRE was defaulted as 'On' for this version, LO Writer just woundn't start, it just crashed. LO Calc would start with a blank spreadsheet, but it also crashed when opening an existing spreadsheet.
