Description Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2011-12-03 10:45:38 UTC
This is the Meta issue to track Bugs concerning problems continuing use of the existing LibO 3 User Profile after the upgrade from 3.3 or 3.4 to 3.5

If anyone finds a Bug in 3.5 Master or 3.5 Beta / RC  where the suspect exists that problems are caused because the update still uses the existing user Profile, please add the Bug ID as
dependent Bug here to the Meta Bug in field "Depends on". Additionally please
leave a comment here containing the bug Subject line.

Example for WIN:
Existing User Profile: C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\3\
(Modified) User Profile referece in C:\<LibO_Installation\program\bootstrap.ini:
 UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/Libreoffice/3

Please backup your User Profile before a test and also mention hints on <https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel>

Rainer: should fdo#46155 be a dup of this tracker or should  this tracker depend on fdo#46155 ? (or both !?)
I searched in these links :
- http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport
- http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport_Details
- https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA-FAQ#How_to_assign_a_bug_.28QA_team_only.29
even the thread http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Cleaning-bug-list-tp3988836.html
Perhaps I missed it.

Comment 18 Roman Eisele 2012-08-11 16:15:29 UTC
Moved bug 53303 from "Blocks" to "Depends on" -- this is the way it should be, isn’t it?
Comment 19 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2012-08-12 07:31:05 UTC
Add "Bug 43491 - CONFIGURATION: Using existing User Profile after update existing WRITER documents VIEWING settings are modified", I am pretty sure that that one is related.
Comment 20 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2012-08-12 15:34:45 UTC
I am pretty sure that "Bug 52022 - CONFIGURATION: 'My Macros' lost after update from 3.5.5.3" also is correct here, although some of the circumstances are not so typical.
Comment 21 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2012-08-12 17:40:47 UTC
Add "Bug 51323 - Constant crashes on MacOS X 10.7 after using existing User Profile folder for upgrade". A user profile is available there as attachment.

repair help crasher on upgrade linkage to duplicate bug#53337
Comment 26 Roman Eisele 2012-08-21 17:13:45 UTC
Added bug 53869 - "CRASH on startup". Reported for MacOS X 10.6.8 (Intel). Immediate crash on startup of LibreOffice 3.6.0.4 after upgrade from 3.5.5. Renaming the user profile solved the issue.

Important: the faulty user profile is attached to the bug report, therefore this report may be especially helpful for further investigation.
Comment 27 Roman Eisele 2012-09-09 07:19:11 UTC
Supplement:
Julien Nabet has added Bug 54374 - "Crash when sliding the File-menu down".
Comment 28 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2012-09-10 08:55:30 UTC
Current knowledge seems to say that "Bug 54621 - EDITING: CRASH in .ods documents with lots of (conditional) formatting" is related to this one
Comment 29 Korrawit Pruegsanusak 2012-10-17 11:23:33 UTC
Adding bug 55839. This bug occurred after upgrading from 3.5.6 to 3.6.2, causing all applications to crash when do File > Print or Ctrl + P. Crashing user profile could be downloaded from the bug.

Julian, tschloessers msg is just an auto-reply because he on vacation.

Can anybody elaborate on tommy27's question if they have issues updating from LO 3.6 to 4.x
Comment 34 retired 2013-08-12 06:28:24 UTC
Is it even worth keeping this meta ticket for 3 bugs which we are not sure if they still happen on 4.0?

Imo close this meta tickets and look into the three remaining bugs and be done.

If you agree please proceed accordingly.
Comment 35 tommy27 2013-08-12 07:56:23 UTC
@James
I agree. removed mab3.6 block.
let's focus on the remaining 3 open bugs.
Comment 36 V Stuart Foote 2016-01-27 07:54:06 UTC
