Description Uwe Wiest 2014-04-09 13:32:35 UTC
Writer Web stürzt ab beim Versuch, das Menü "Seite" aufzurufen. Gespeicherte Datei lässt sich nicht wieder aufrufen.
Damit ist libreoffice als Web-Editor unbrauchbar geworden.
Comment 1 Jorendc 2014-04-18 21:22:53 UTC
Please communicate in English. Provide step by step how to reproduce your problem. If possible, attach a sample document too.

Thanks for your extra information.

Kind regards?
Joren
Comment 2 Uwe Wiest 2014-04-23 09:11:45 UTC
 1. Open an empty  writer/web document. Choose Kontext-Menu "Page"
    (German: Seite). Libreoffice crashes. So it is for example
    impossible to create a background
 2. Open a Writer/Web document. Write a Text, create a spreadsheet. Save
    the document. It becomes very large.
    You cannot open it with Libre again or only with strange changes.

This happens with Libreoffice in ubuntu-linux, in window 7 and windows 
8.1. Version 4.2.3
Libreoffice Version 4.1.5 writer/web is o.k.

Kind regards
Dr. Uwe Wiest

Comment 3 Harald Koester 2014-04-23 21:55:43 UTC
Writer/Web also crashes, if you try to format a page via the menu:

1. Create new HTML Document: File > New > HTML Document
2. Format > Page...: Writer crashes, expected: No crash
Comment 4 k-j 2014-04-24 08:25:15 UTC
Can confirm it in WIN XP 32bit with LibO 4.2.4 RC1 and WIN 8.1 Upd 1 with LibO 4.2.3.3 portable
Comment 5 Terrence Enger 2014-04-24 15:08:06 UTC
Working on debian-wheezy, I see varying results:

(*) LibreOffice version 3.5.4.2, delivered with debian-wheezy, has no
    problem.  Hence, this is a regression.

(*) two commits from 2014-04-11, configured with and without dbgutil
    respectively, go into long loops, pegging the CPU; I cancelled
    first excution after half and hour, the second after about a
    minute.  This may be an entirely different problem, but I am
    leaving it alone for now.

(*) bibisect-42all latest: segfault before LibreOffice finished
    painting the dialog.  I am assuming that the reporter's crash is
    also a segfault.

(*) bibisect-42all oldest: no problem

Comment 6 Terrence Enger 2014-04-24 15:12:53 UTC
I see no reference to an operating system other than Linux, so am
setting platform accordingly.
Comment 7 Terrence Enger 2014-04-24 15:20:14 UTC
Sorry, I just read comment 2 more closely.  Setting platform back to All.

This sounds like a different problem, maybe three problems: very large
file, cannot open, looks strange.  Can you file new bug reports for
them?  Please add me <lo_bugs@iseries-guru.com> to the cc.

Early questions will be:
(*) What means "very large"?  Please attach an example and tell us
    what part of the file should be omitted.
(*) Please attach an example which crashes LibreOffice when you try to
    open it.
(*) Please attach an example which looks strange when you open it.
    What is strange about it?  A screenshot can help.  What should it
    look like?

Comment 12 Brian Piccioni 2014-05-12 20:20:12 UTC
I should add that, on a lark, I tried to replicate the bug on my office system. Writer does, indeed, crash when I attempt to create an HTML document and Format Page. This is an entirely different machine with Windows 7
