I could not reproduce using Version: 4.3.0.0.beta1 Build ID: 2e39c7e59c8fc8b16a54c3d981dceef27fb0c07f Ubuntu 14.04 - Sophie
Not reproducible, tested using Windows 8.1 with LibreOffice Version: 4.3.0.0.beta1 Build ID: 2e39c7e59c8fc8b16a54c3d981dceef27fb0c07f Kind regards, Joren
Created attachment 99711 [details] The same file opens correctly in Ubuntu 14.04 The same file opens correctly in Ubuntu 14.04. This bug appears in Windows (XP?)
In Ubuntu 14.04 you can see another bug that I have not yet been reported. at the end of the mail merge insert a page break are not present in the original document and an empty table.
Created attachment 99728 [details] LO 4.3beta1 and LO 4.2.4 side by side The bug does not seem related to a specific document. Rather than Windows XP. I installed LibreOffice 4.3beta1 on a second computer with Windows XP, so I opened several documents .doc, .odt and .pub. All crashed. LibreOffice 4.2.4 open them.
Hello Marco, I don't reproduce with LO 4.3.0.0.beta1 Build ID: 2e39c7e59c8fc8b16a54c3d981dceef27fb0c07f under Windows 7 Home Premium. Regards, Jacques
joel madero has shown me that this bug seems to be a duplicate of: bug 79112: LibreOffice-Libreoffice critical/medium UNCONFIRMED 4.3Beta1 on Windows XP: Crashes almost always on "File"->"Open" Tahnks
This is a auto spellchecker issue as found in bug 77891. Disabling auto spellchecker will cause it not to crash when loading. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 77891 ***
beta1 builds for windows on http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/win/x86/ have been replaced with a fixed version if the problem still occurs after deinstalling the old beta and reinstalling the fixed one, please reopen this issue.
