Description Jean-Luc GARNIER 2014-12-09 15:23:16 UTC
Draw suddenly shuts down while editing a one-A3 page file. I suppose adding pictures is the root cause, but cannot reproduce the bug with any image. Last event: I was adding a logo and moving it to proper location. Draw closed after move is done (no action).

Sometimes crashes, sometimes not, without any notice nor error message.

Thanks for any help!

Hmm... could be related to some of our underlying image management problems (bug 47148).

Hmmm, hmmm. One thing you can try to do is to run LibreOffice from the command line -- that will give you some sporadic debugging output, the last few dozen lines of which *might* give a clue as to what's causing a crash.

Please upload the A3 file that's causing Draw to crash. (If there's anything private in the file, please sanitize it before you upload it: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Sanitize)

Status -> NEEDINFO

(Please change the status back to UNCONFIRMED once you've provided an example file)

Thanks!

Hi Robinson,

Thanks for your quick answer! I don't know how to start LibreOffice from the command line, can you please point me to the proper documentation?

Some additional information:
- I've uploaded a sanitized version of my drawing, but it's a sensitive document, so I've removed a lot of items and expect the buggy one was not removed in this process...
- Once all sensitive items were removed, I've saved the dwg with a new name... and Draw immediately crashed!
- I'm using some custom fonts throughout the drawing (eurofurence bold): could this be another reason for the weird behavior?

Thanks again for your help!

Best regards.

I can resave attached file without crash. I can add graphics into file and move them without crash. LO 4.3.4.1, win7

Great, same configuration! How can I start in command line mode? Maybe some debug info would lead to fixing my system and not the software... ;-)

Start -> cmd  (or from Start-Programs- Accessories-Command line)

type
C:\Program Files\LibreOffice 4\soffice.exe
adapt the path to your installation of the LibreOffice software

You can also try this with a regular GUI session: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/How_to_get_a_backtrace_with_WinDbg
Comment 8 Joel Madero 2014-12-16 16:24:15 UTC
Marking this as NEEDINFO as the current information is not enough to reproduce.

@Jean-Luc GARNIER: 

If you could try to get some output from command line or even get a backtrace using these instructions: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/How_to_debug


You could jump into the QA channel and try to get 1 on 1 help if you'd like :)

Once more is provided please set to UNCONFIRMED. Thanks!

Unable to catch the bug again, maybe some update fixed it...
Comment 11 Buovjaga 2015-07-19 11:35:14 UTC
Ok, I guess you are using 4.4 now. I'll set to WFM. If the problem returns, it can be set back to UNCONFIRMED.
