In cell G3 formula is =F3*L3, where L3 is percent value. Instead value i get error:522. For ods, xlsx this problem doesn't exist

A hard recalculate (Shift+Ctrl+F9) or even a simple reload solves the problem. Not sure yet what's going on there..
Comment 2 MM 2015-11-11 22:02:34 UTC
Does turning off OpenCL fix the problem ???
Maybe the same as bug 94924 then ?!
Comment 3 Eike Rathke 2015-11-17 02:04:15 UTC
This is indeed due to OpenCL being enabled, though it is not OpenCL that fails..

@tml (as you were lately working on OpenCL and group calculation):
Breaking in ScFormulaCell::Interpret() in if(bRunning) and going up the stack reveals that calculation was entered through ScFormulaCell::InterpretFormulaGroup() and ScGroupTokenConverter::convert() and ScColumn::FetchVectorRefArray(). In appendBlock() of sc/source/core/data/column2.cxx for sc::element_type_formula blocks the sc::FormulaResultValue is checked for ScErrorCodes::errCircularReference and the formula cell is reset (with comment "This cell needs to be recalculated on next visit."). However, if the calculation dependencies involved other cells that already resulted in errCircularReference which then is propagated, resetting only that cell doesn't help, actually all cells that it depends on and their predecessors would have to be reset as well.

This first happens for cell J4 on sheet 2 (ScAddress ScFormulaCell::aPos == {nRow = 3, nCol = 9, nTab = 1})

To me that approach can not work as the reverse dependency information is not available and I'd entirely disable handling sc::element_type_formula in appendToBlock() and immediately return false instead.

Other opinions?

I'm trying some different approach first.
