flat xml i/o filters

LibreOffice is not able to load flat xml .ods document any more. 3.4.1 and before worked just fine, but 3.4.2 is not able load it anymore.
Comment 1 Kristof Ralovich 2011-08-01 10:55:23 UTC
As a workaround I can use flat.jar (see attachment) xml i/o filters.

Not confirmed with [Win2K LibreOffice 3.4.2 OOO340m1 (Build:203)].
File loads as expected without your flat filter.

Have you tried repairing LO with the setup script ? This sometimes helps, as it copies new versions over damaged ones.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:

Forgot to mention, LOdev was freshly installed after un-installing all previous version of LO.

For people having this same issue, you can enable Flat ODF in your LibreOffice
installation by rerunning setup and modifying the installation to include:

    Sample XSLT Filters

So:

    setup.exe -> Modify -> Optional Components -> XSLT Sample Filters

Should get you the required filters for using Flat ODF files on Windows.

The above configuration should no doubt become the default on Windows !
Comment 13 Michael Stahl (allotropia) 2012-02-07 05:06:28 UTC
looks like a windows-only installation regression?

Fridrich enabled it, unfortunately too late for 3.5.0. Will be in 3.5.1.

Great to hear. Could it be updated for 3.4.6 too ?

Why not... Pushed to libreoffice-3-4 branch, too.

Thanks ! I updated it in our tracker too, so new users can find the relevant information.

Comment 18 pirri 2012-02-13 08:27:04 UTC
And for people like me, who is in the middle of a project of deploying LibO 3.4.5 in a corporation (4K machines), and we want to change from RTF to FOdt, is there a solution/workarround?

3.4.6 and 3.5.1 are too far for us, we must deploy LibO 3.4.5 next monday. 

We can modify the MSI installer with ORCA (in fact we did it to disable auto updates, remove some languages, etc), but we have no idea about what exactly do we have to change to deploy LibO 3.4.5 with the XSLT Samples component by default.

Any help will be welcomed.

In Orca open the Feature table, find gm_o_Xsltfiltersamples, and set the Level to 20 (it is 200 by default).
