while trying to open <http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?pubRef=-//EP//NONSGML+TA+20110623+SIT-03+DOC+WORD+V0//DE&language=DE> the application crashed. Ending .do was changed to .doc first. Mac TextWriter could oben the .doc without major trouble.
Reproduced on : LibreOffice 3.4.1 OOO340m1 (Build:101) MacOS X Leopard (10.5) Intel Core 2 Duo But not with OOoLight OOL102r1100 (Build:10) on the same platform It open the file successfully.
Hi, I can not reproduce here when I pass the download straight to LibreOffice 3.3.2, it opens fine on MacOSX. You don't have to change the name of the file extension, LibreOffice can open up the file without that. However, I can reproduce when I try to open it in 3.4 m1 build 12. Attaching apple crash trace. Setting regression with regard to 3.3.2. Additionally, this might actually be a duplicate of other doc/docx crash causing bugs already registered. Alex
Created attachment 48372 [details] crash trace for MS doc import bug
Still crashes with 3.4.1rc1. Alex
defined title of report more precisely
Not that it makes much difference (because its a crasher anyway), but setting importance to high. Alex
I can reproduce this, easy enough workaround I guess.
Fix committed to master as http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/writer/commit/?id=fd768eb1d726e63a9c9cad0b245d1603eba6b5d9
Caolan: Thanks for that! Signed-off & cherry-picked to libreoffice-3-4, so it will be in 3.4.2.
Thanks from me, too - that was fast.
Just for record. The bug will be fixed in 3.4.2 release. It affects only limited number of documents => we do not want to block the 3.4.1 release because of this. In the meantime, you could use the nightly builds, see http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/
