A Mexican government notice

Writer hangs when trying to open the attached file.  After it hangs, the CPU usage of the soffice.bin process remains high (>90%).
Comment 1 Juan 2011-05-13 07:45:54 UTC
Tested today with 3.4 beta 5 (DEV300m103 build:5) and the results are same same: it hangs.

Observing the behavior of the soffice.bin process in task manager, the memory usage increases constantly.  I let it run for around 5 minutes...
Comment 2 Petr Mladek 2011-05-16 08:34:38 UTC
I see this also on Linux (SLED11-SP1, x86_64) with LO-3.4-beta5 and with LO-3.3.2.
Comment 3 Juan 2011-05-16 10:31:29 UTC
In case this helps, OpenOffice 3.3.0 (OOO330m20 Build:9567) under Windows XP has no problem opening this file.
Comment 4 Juan 2011-05-20 10:10:08 UTC
Another sample file that hangs under LibO 3.3.2 & WinXP.

The same file opens OK under OO 3.3.0 (OOO330m20 build 9567), MS Word 2000 (9.0.2720), and MS Word Viewer (11.8169.8172 SP3).

Cheers!

I expected to see a link to the URL that I included on my comment #4.  Anyway, I just want you guys to know that the URL on this bug corresponds to that comment.
Comment 6 Mike §chinagl 2012-01-15 05:04:00 UTC
I can confirm it that Writer hangs under Ubuntu Linux 10.10 with Kernel 2.3.35.31 with LibreOffice 3.4.4 OOO340m1 (Build:402)
Comment 7 Caolán McNamara 2012-02-29 06:15:22 UTC
caolanm->mstahl: do you have some good ideas about how to debug into these apparently layout loops
Comment 8 Julien Nabet 2012-08-18 18:47:22 UTC
On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I reproduce the problem.

No specific console logs so I runned gdb and Ctrl-C at random, found this interesting bt:

more than 5000 times this same line !
    641         if (pMaster)
    642             pMaster->HideAndShowObjects();
    643     }

I tried this very naive patch, it seems to fix the loop found but it doesn't solve the bug :-(

Comment 9 A (Andy) 2013-05-05 19:24:33 UTC
reproducible with LO 4.0.2.2 (Win7 Home, 64bit)

in MSO 2007 it is opened immediately
maybe it depends on the large table in this document?

3 bts at random

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources udpated today, I still reproduce the hanging. I attached 3 bts at random. There's nothing special on console.

Comment 13 Juan 2015-05-05 06:39:27 UTC
Today I tested under Win 8.1 Pro observing the same behavior.

The following versions of LibreOffice hang while opening this file:

   3.3.0   OOO330m19 (Build:6)
   3.6.5.2 build id 5b93205
   4.4.2.2 build id c4c7d32d0d49397cad38d62472b0bc8acff48dd6

In case it helps, the file opens under:

   OpenOffice.org    3.2.1 ooo320m18 build 9502
   Apache OpenOffice 4.0.0 Aoo400m3  build 9702

As requested, after testing under 3.3.0 I am changing the version to "inherited from OOo".

Thanks for keeping with such a good job with LO!

Reduced test case DOC

I add a reduced test case DOC. The only thing in there is section break. I reported header issue separately as Bug 97128.

Comment 17 Julien Nabet 2016-07-31 09:21:32 UTC
With master sources updated yesterday (on pc Debian x86-64 +  gtk3 rendering), I still can't open reduced test case doc.
I got nothing on console logs after this:

Michael/Oliver: thought you might be interested in this long standing bug since you're the Writer experts (https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/FindTheExpert)

It opens if 347bb1634b10eba577742fe8a7edb4b2dd69265d is reverted. Closing as
