I was able to replicate the bug on Windows 7 Professional and Windows 10 home.
Both of these systems were running OpenOffice 4.1.2. While I was unable to get
the exact formatting shown in the sample file provided by jy1, I was able to
replicate the main problems for both alphabetical and user-defined indexes.
These problems were:

Instead of showing the number of the chapter that an indexed word appears in,
the index displays “??”
Instead of showing the title of the chapter an indexed word appears in, the
index displays the entire line containing the word that was indexed

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a new OpenOffice Text Document
2. Create some chapter titles using the style “Heading1”
3. Highlight the chapter titles you created and click the “Numbering On/Off”
button to apply numbers to the chapters
4. Type some sample text under one or more of the chapter titles in the “Text
Body” style
5. Select some of the sample text that you would like to be indexed. You do
this by highlighting the text, then clicking Insert > Indexes and Tables >
Entry. From here you must choose either Alphabetical or User-Defined Index.
After you have chosen what type of index the selection will be filed under,
click “Insert” and close the dialogue box. The selection should now appear to
be highlighted in grey, and when you hover your mouse over your selection it
will give you information about the index entry.
6. Click on your screen where you would like to put your index and navigate to
the Insert Index/Table options by clicking Insert > Indexes and Tables >
Indexes and Tables
7. Under the “Index/Table” tab you should see a drop down box labeled “Type”.
Change this to either Alphabetical Index or User-Defined Index
8. Click on the “Entries” tab. Find a button labeled Chapter info and click it.
A new drop down box labeled Chapter entry should have appeared. Change the
value in this drop down box to “Number range and description”
9. Press the “OK” button 

At this point you should see either the alphabetical or User-Defined index
depending on what you chose to do. Under this index you should see an entry
that looks something like:

?? the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogfox………………………………………………1

Where “fox” was the word you indexed and “the quick brown fox jumps over the
lazy dog” is the line fox was indexed from.

I attached a document I created that shows this issue.
