Problem description: Will not provide a 'recent documents list' Steps to reproduce: 1. LO 3.4.5 recent docs list not retained 2. Created and saved new test doc 3. Recent docs list still nonexistant Current behavior: Applies across all of LO 3.5.0 Expected behavior: Platform (if different from the browser): Kubuntu 11.10, Linux 3.2.0-12, KDE 4.8.0 Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686) AppleWebKit/535.20 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/19.0.1036.7 Safari/535.20
Can you check if this happens if you create a new user profile?
I believe "Applies across all of LO 3.5.0" means that not only CALC is affected
Same here. Ubuntu 10.04 / 64 bit. Updated my 3.4.5 install to 3.5.0 and there is no recent documents list saved now.
Markus: Renamed the ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user folder, forcing LO to create a new user folder on startup. Recent Files now works okay. Thanks for the suggestion.

The best comment on this seems to be Leon's: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46172#c1 It seems the schema changed for Recent Documents, more code reading required, but it is entirely possible that this has wider ramifications for lost settings and profile problems - Stephan might have some insight into that.
Yes, looks like migration of configuration set elements loses property's values. Investigating.
Stephan Bergmann committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=f3f79cc9e6c265baf48955d53f7e888205e0b3e0 Resolves fdo#46074: Fix Partial::contains for paths that go past a leaf node
The patch mentioned in comment 12 should fix this on master towards LO 3.6. (Backporting to LO 3.5.1 is planned) If you worked around this problem on Linux by removing your ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user directory, and you still have the pre LO 3.5 ~/.libreoffice/3/user directory around, you can apparently force LO 3.5/3.6 to do a fresh migration of the old data by removing ~/.libreoffice/3/MIGRATED and the new ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user directory. (But you should of course only do that in a LO 3.5/3.6 build where this issue is fixed.) However, please note that the Recent Documents list is not migrated (i.e., it will always be empty in a fresh LO 3.5/3.6, regardless of any pre LO 3.5 data). This is because officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/Setup.xcu does not contain any MigrationStep for /org.openoffice.Office.Histories. (That migration of user data from LO 3.x to LO 3.5 became necessary at all is a nasty consequence of bug 32263.)

To clarify: As this bug was present in LO 3.5.0, if you migrated from < 3.5.0 to LO 3.5.0 and now to LO 3.5.1, the issue will still appear to be present (as it happens when the user data is migrated, and that happened for you when migrating from < 3.5.0 to LO 3.5.0). You can resolve it manually by removing the LO 3.5 user data (Linux: ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user). Upon next LO start, fresh user data should be created and newly saved documents should start to appear in the recent documents list. Optionally, you can also remove the marker file indicating that the < 3.5.0 user data had already been migrated (Linux: ~/.libreoffice/3/MIGRATED etc., depending on what your < 3.5.0 actually was). Then, your old user data should be migrated upon the first LO start after removing the LO 3.5 user data. (But note that the recent documents list is never migrated, see comment 13.)

removing ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user did not solve the problem for me... nothing changed (except that I had to reconfigure my dictionnaries)
(In reply to comment #41) > removing ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user did not solve the problem for me... > nothing changed (except that I had to reconfigure my dictionnaries) Just to be sure: You need to both remove the user directory *and* update to at least LO 3.5.1.
I have LibreOffice 3.5.1.2 (and I had that when I removed the folder). Do I need to reinstall it?

We have some reports for that problem for versions 3.5.1 and later for Linux and WIN. May be we have a second problem what is not fixed by the fix here?

Removing ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user causes the Recent Documents to begin working again. Am using: LibreOffice 3.5.2.2 Build ID: 281b639-6baa1d3-ef66a77-d866f25-f36d45f On Mint Linux Release 12 (Lisa)

Thanks. Also letting LibO create a new ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user directory and then coping over the old uno_packages, extensions and config directories brought back the extensions & config and the recent documents list still appears to work.
Thanks, that worked.

This all very well for Linux but what about Windows? I too have LibreOffice 3.5.2.2 , Build ID: 281b639-6baa1d3-ef66a77-d866f25-f36d45f. But I don't have a folder ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user. The installation in Windows creates ... \LibreOffice\3\user\config So I'm none the wiser on what to do. But to be blunt, I really don't want all this geekery. Can someone PLEASE simply issue a version of LibreOffice 3.5 that just works and not expect usres to fathom how to get full functionality? At the moment, I am thinking seriously of uninstalling and going back to the MS software - which DOES work.

On Windows, you can remove LibreOffice\3\user\registrymodifications.xcu (it will cause some customization to get lost, like things changed in "Tools - Options"). (That Windows is affected at all by this LO 3.5.0 bug is an unfortunate consequence of another bug in that version, which caused LO to "migrate" its existing per-user configuration data onto itself. And, unfortunately, there is no good way for a later LO version to automatically fix the breakage caused by this bug in LO 3.5.0.)
Totally agree.

The various, legitimate complaints here that LO should self-heal its blocked Recent Documents list made me have another look at the code, and indeed the above master commit (comment 58) should make a broken Recent Documents list work again without any manual intervention (old entries will still be lost, but new entries will start to appear again). I am intending to get that fix backported into LO 3.5.3.

I removed the file registrymodifications.xcu and I still have nothing in Recent Documents after opening and closing a few documents.
(In reply to comment #62) > I removed the file registrymodifications.xcu and I still have nothing in Recent > Documents after opening and closing a few documents. David, where exactly was that file located? (If you are running on Linux, you likely have different directories ~/.libreoffice/3/user vs. ~/.config/libreoffice/3/user containing that file.) Also, if you can wait for LO 3.5.3, you could check whether my subsequent fix makes your problem go away automatically (that fix was not yet in 3.5.3 rc1, but will be in later revisions).
Okay, this is getting confusing. So there are two places where the file is saved. So I removed it from the other location and replaced with a modified version, in which I kept just the first few lines (cutting out all document history from the file, as well as anything referring to Openoffice.org), and now I have the recent documents listed again. When the 3.5.3 comes out I shall upgrade to that. Thanks for your help and work on this.

Reset version number to original value (3.5.0). Please note that the version field should containt the FIRST version which is known to contain the problem, NOT the last one!

To fix that and not loose settings use HistoryMaster addon. Set pick list to 0, Apply. Next set pick list to 10, Apply. And done, recent list is back.

*** SOLVED ON WINDOWS *** Just download and install LO 3.5.4 (LibreOffice 3.5.4.2 Build ID: 165a79a-7059095-e13bb37-fef39a4-9503d1) Platform is Windows 7 64 bit on Lenovo Y460 notebook. Previously suffering from this bug. I.e. no document listed in recently used. Did not do anything to remove whatever user file etc as suggested in work around. Just straight away install without uninstalling previous version (which I forget to record, probably very early version of 3.5, remember only upgrade it one time) After the installation boot up and no recent document in the list. As expected. Open a document. Close it and the recent document list is updated with that document. Tested with another document and work as expected. Hope this help other people on Windows. And I would suggest that any workaround in the future is to be suggested with all platform in mind. Thankfully the act of installing a new version is very similar to all platform ;) Have a good day!
