Picture - error message
Hi. This bug is causing me approx one hour work.
I cannot find out WHY this happens, but I'm trying to provide as much info as
possible:
I have a mounted Truecrypt volume. The bug is not likely to be a TC issue
because I've never had any similar problems with other programs before.
The volume is mounted as removable media. That means if the ods files had been
laying on a memory stick, the same problem should appear.
The folder structure where the two files lies is named:
"W:\Divæsje\Regnskap\2011"
The files is named:
"Bil_626_b.ods" - Write protected
"Bil_626_c.ods" - Copy "Bil_626_b.ods" of to be modified and saved. NOt Write
protected.
I cannot tell whose file I did first opened.
So I start working with the "Bil_626_c.ods" while I have the other file open. I
switch active windows (those two opened ods files) several times.
While "Bil_626_b.ods" is still open and "Bil_626_c.ods" is active window, I try
to save.
Then I get an error message saying:
"Error saving the document Bil_626_c:"
"Write Error."
"The file could not be written."
Now there is no way out. All the work is gone. While LibO was still open I
tried following but no success:
* Try to save to another folder. Same error message. Cannot save.
* Kill LobO process and try to recover. Still no success as only the existing
document is recovered.
I'm not very familiar with the Severity selection (on Bugzilla). I set this to
"blocker" since it block all possible way out so I can save my data.
After I close Libo without saving, the content of the ods file is not changed.
