Description Laurent 2014-07-26 04:08:00 UTC
Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run "open somefile.odt" from the OS X Terminal

Current behavior:

The LibreOffice icon temporarily appears in the dock, then the application crashes. The following message appears in the OS X Console:

> com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[733]: (org.libreoffice.script.31536[4415]) Exited with code: 1


Expected behavior:

The application does not crash and open the file.

This definitely used to work in earlier versions of LibreOffice (maybe 3.x?) but doesn't work anymore in recent versions.
Operating System: Mac OS X
Version: 4.2.5.2 release
Comment 1 Christopher Alexander Chavez 2014-07-26 07:24:01 UTC
I am able to use "open …" on .odt or any other type for LibreOffice 4.3.0.3 (aka RC3), OS X 10.9.4.
What version of OS X are you using specifically? Does actually double-clicking the file result in a crash?

[QA: should this be set to NEEDINFO?]

possible duplicate of bug 74447?
Comment 3 Laurent 2014-07-26 16:54:04 UTC
My version of OS X is 10.9.4 though LibreOffice was already crashing before this version. If I double-click the file it opens fine.

Laurent, please attach your file (keep in mind that your file will open to public) if that only happen with particular file.

You could also try 
- LO 4.3.0.3 : http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/?version=4.3.0

ODT file that crashes LO when opened via "open Empty.odt"
Comment 6 Laurent 2014-07-26 17:37:05 UTC
I'm not sure but I think it might have something to do with document corruption and/or the document restoration feature. I can replicate the issue consistently like this:

1. Open LibreOffice and create a new, empty, ODT file.
2. Save and quit LibreOffice
3. Run "open empty.odt" - the file opens fine.
4. Quit LibreOffice
5. Run "open empty.odt" again - the dialog for document restoration briefly shows up (no controls are visible but, from the size, I assume it is this one) then LO crashes.

If I open empty.odt again by double-clicking on the file, the restoration dialog shows up and I can restore the file. From there, it's possible to repeat step 2 to 5 and crash LO again.

I've attached empty.odt at a point where it crashes LO for me, though I don't know if it's going to do it on different configurations.

For info, I've also tried deleting my profile and I could still replicate this.

@Laurent : by any chance, are you saving to / reading from a USB connected drive? I have seen similar behaviour (file corruption in such a case) ?
Comment 11 Laurent 2014-08-01 16:34:38 UTC
@Alex, I've just tried with my local HSF+ partition and with a FAT32 one and it's crashing in both cases.

By the way, before each crash, I see the following line in the Console, could it be related?
