Description Craig 2019-11-19 05:15:00 UTC
Description:
Working on a Raspberry Pi with LibreOffice 6.1.5.2

I set up a link from one calc sheet (link to external) to another calc sheet in a different file.  Set to update every 5 seconds.  This works fine for a while, but if I leave the spreadsheet unattended for 60 minutes the link no longer updates.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a fresh calc sheet enter 1 in "A1" and name the cell and save the sheet.
2.Open a second sheet and in cell "A1" link to the named cell in 1st sheet, with 5 second update.
3.Test link.  (It will work fine.)  Walk away for 60 minutes.  Retest.  It will fail.


Actual Results:
It works for a while and then left unattended it fails.

Expected Results:
I expect it to work as long as the file is open and running.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This failure occurs on LibreOffice 6.1.5.2 running on a Raspberry Pi.  Failed on both RPi 2 and RPi 4.

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.
