------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Jan 22 10:53:59 -0800 2007 ------- I can confirm this with version 2.1 on both Linux and Windows, and in Calc and Writer. I have a system running Gentoo, using a binary install of OpenOffice 2.1. In both Writer and Calc (I have not tried the other parts of OpenOffice) whenever I click the Save icon to save a document that is stored on my Samba server it pauses for a couple seconds and pops up a dialog box to report it could not create a backup. If I click OK on the dialog box, then immediately click the Save icon again it saves the file without complaint. During the first attempt it not only does not create a backup, it does not actually save the file. At work I use a Windows XP computer and save files to a file server running Windows Server 2003. Again, I'm using OpenOffice.org 2.1. In both Writer and Calc I can open up a file from the server, make some changes and click the Save icon. The first time I click save after opening the document it saves without incident. Every subsequent time I modify and click Save OpenOffice freezes for a few minutes before popping up a dialog box saying "Could not create backup copy." Again, if I click OK and immediately click Save again it saves quickly and without problem. I've noticed this issue in the 2.0.x versions of OpenOffice on Linux and this is not a very big problem on Linux because the freeze is for only a second or two and I can just hit Save again immediately to successfully save my file. This is a big problem in Windows because the application freezes for minutes instead of seconds, and all open OpenOffice windows freeze, so if I'm working with a spreadsheet and a couple of Writer documents, I click Save in any one of these open files and all work on any open file is halted. This only happens for files that are opened from network shares, if the file is on my local hard drive this does not happen in either Linux or Windows. In both of the above scenarios I have unchecked the "Always create backup copy" checkbox in the Options dialog. I have not changed the default backup path on either system, I can confirm that the Windows XP default backup path is pointing to a folder on my C: drive. I believe this Issue needs to be escalated to include multiple components and multiple operating systems. ds --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
