Description Martin Lange 2015-12-24 17:13:20 UTC
Overview:
I want to insert an existing file "Zwei.fodt" in another existing file "Eins.fodt". This results in an "Read error: Error reading file".

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Opening an existing document "Eins.fodt"
2. Clicking "Insert -> Document".
3. Selecting another existing document "Zwei.fodt"

Actual Results: 
LO displays a message "Read error: Error reading file".

Expected Results:
The content of file "Zwei.fodt" is inserted in file "Eins.fodt" at and below the cursor.

Build Date & Hardware:
Version: 5.0.4.2
Build ID: 2b9802c1994aa0b7dc6079e128979269cf95bc78
on Linux Mint 17 Qiana, KDE 64-bit

Additional Builds and Platforms:
Not checked with other builds and platforms.

Additional Information:
1. I'm aware of Bug 94374 - Insert -> Document: "Read-Error. Error reading file." for DOCX files

2. Work-around
2.1 Saving file "Eins.fodt" as "Eins.odt" and file "Zwei.fodt" as "Zwei.odt".
2.2 Opening file "Eins.odt".
2.3 Inserting file "Zwei.odt".

This works just fine. Only the FODT document format seems to be affected.

If I can provide any further information or help, please ask.
