Description guillaume.ameline 2019-09-26 13:07:28 UTC
Description:
My Calc project worked just fine until LibreOffice 6.2.7.1, but from 6.3.0.4 to 6.3.2.2, The most important curve can not be displayed anymore, because somethig goes wrong in some "iterative" calculus.

Steps to Reproduce:
Open the file "Modelisation trajectoire aeronef avec vent.ods" with Calc 6.3.0.4 or newer.

Actual Results:
In FiltrageVent sheet, observe all "err :522" on columns H,I,K etc...

Expected Results:
I expected the same result as when opening the file with Calc 6.2.7.1 or older.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
With Calc 6.3.0.4, I have already been able to make the calculus temporarily work again, by copying several times the cells down columns G,H,Y, or up column DN, from FiltrageVent sheet. But saving and opening again the file brought back the errors.

I wish I was able to norrow down the problem to something more precise, but that is all I can say so far.

The problem is not happening if you disable calculation threading.

Actually it's a duplicate of bug 124270

Indeed, disabling multithreaded calculations removes the "Err :522", but the calculations become wrong, with an unstable result...

Thank you Xisco Fauli, for these steps forward.

repro with 6.3.0.0alpha1+, nonrepro with 6.2.7.1, but also the second is not 'bugfree'. 

hello guillaume, 

!respect! - huge project, 

my suggestions: 

while not fixed go back to 6.2.7.1, it's the most stable version i've seen yet, 

(since 4.1.6.2) 

also try to use it 'unthreaded', i had - very rare - 'err:522' and 'stuck calculations' (values not updated unless 'hard recalc') also in this version when 'threaded', 

avoid doing productive work with 'dev' versions, i learned it the hard way :-( 

(but i hope my problems contributed to the overall quality of the program)

Thank you b, that is all very well said.

I did go back to 6.2.7.1, with backups and all that. And I will keep your advice in mind, if I see strange results. It probably happened already, but the project seems to be quite stable now, even with threaded calculations enabled.

I only tried 'dev' versions so that my reports can be as accurate as possible. And I mainly use Linux to work on this project...

Best tegards,

Guilaume
