Maybe we could eventually learn something from that file... I am using OpenOffice, Firefox an Thunderbird. I stopped all of them, and renamed the folders: ~/.openoffice.org ~/.mozilla ~/.thunderbird The error was still there: after reconfiguring OpenOffice for my user, I was still unable to save and open password-protected files. Maybe it is something else? > The thing is, we shouldn't be using a library that fragile, that commonly > breaks in the field with disastrous consequences, even for something simple > like calculating cryptographic digest functions, and that we have no easy > way to debug or fix. FWIW I totally agree with you on this. :-) I am actually a bit puzzled by the fact that there is no error reporting. I tried to compile a debug-enabled AOO some days ago and got a somewhat cryptic error log (I am now going to attach it). > Maybe once we better understand what's wrong, and can > reproduce the problem and test, we can use NSS with different settings so > its more resilient, but its license doesn't really suit us either, so an > alternative would be welcome. I've started an email thread on our > [email protected] list to discuss possibilities. I am not sure I can contribute to this topic. Office programs are not my cup of tea, I am sorry. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
