LO v5.0.1.2.0+ / Build ID 00m0 (Build:2) -- Calc Debian 8 / Gnome 3.14.1 Unable to open files from NFS Server. Last worked 2 days ago (12th Sept). Either select in Files and double click or using Open Recent. No error displayed. Copy file locally and it opens fine. Create new in Writer: Save to NFS -> Error saving document xxxx: Nonexistent object. Path to the file does not exist. Save locally - no problem.
It also happens in Write so I have changed the Component to LibreOffice. On further checking further it appears that my system was updated to 5.0.1.2.0+ after the morning of 12th Sept 2015. LO not used until 14th and problems appeared. I don't remember selecting an update to LO but it may have come through Debian updates - trouble with remembering! If open Calc / Writer and try to open existing file on NFS failure is silent - just doesn't happen. If double click on an NFS file Calc / Writer just do not open.
This does appear to be Libre Office specific (above 4.3.3.2) - so a bit more information:- 2x 64 bit machines running Debian 8 with all updates installed I have been using SMB Bookmarks to access files on server with no problems up to LO 4.3.3.2 One machine - LO updated to LO 5.0.1.2 - will not open files using the SMB Bookmarks anymore. Did a parallel install of LO 4.4.5 - this also does not open the files from SMB Bookmarks When I do a user mount to a local folder LO works fine with 5.0.1.2 Other machine - running LO 4.3.3.2 - works fine Did parallel install of LO 5.0.1.2 - SMB Bookmark files will not open These are multi-user machines with "public" and user specific folders mapped to the server. Using Bookmarks worked well - therefore I haven't had to worry about mount for the multi-user systems - until now if I want to run latest LO.
I have tried several parallel installations (5.0.1.2, 4.3.7.2, 4.3.5.2, 4.3.4.1, 4.3.3.2) including the same version that runs OK (4.3.3.2) with a straight install to try to find which version starts the problem. Trouble is that none of the parallel installs open the files from SMB bookmarks! Even tried with a new profile (.config/LibreOffice) So I would be really grateful for a little input here.
Oh well! I have discovered pam_mount and changed my NFS mapping to use this and it has so far worked with LO 5 So I haven't solved the original problem - just found a workaround.
Thank you for reporting the bug. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
Thank you for taking the time to check on this. Unfortunately it is so old I cannot remember what/how it was encountered and therefore I can't check again. I am running 5.3.4.2 and have not encountered this problem since 21/9/15 so I guess the bug can be assigned to resolved - although I see the note says to change status back to unconfirmed so will do just that.
Ok, Thanks for the feedback. Setting to RESOLVED WORKSFORME as the issue is no longer reproducible.
