Bug ID: 162845
Summary: FILEOPEN General input/output error when opening any
files
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.8.0.3 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Ever since updating from the maintenance branch 7.x to 24.x, all LibreOffice
components on my system have been unusable, because I cannot open any files.
Additionally, icons do not appear in any toolbars.
I described the problem on the Artix Linux forums:
https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,7245.0.html
Other users of Artix have not had the same issues, so the problem is something
specific to my system.
I am not expecting someone to "fix this", because it seems to be my personal
problem, but I'm hoping for some insight on trying to figure out what the
problem actually is. The only error message given is the one in the summary.
There's nothing to go on.
I have tried many times to wipe LibreOffice's own configuration (reset user
profile); no change. Same issues in "safe mode", too.
I suspect there is something missing on my system that the newer versions
require (my system is very bare bones), or some bit of system configuration
causes a conflict. But what could it be?
Some notes:
AppImage of version 7.6.7.2 works fine.
Version 7.6.7, previously shipped by Artix, worked fine.
Have tried versions 24.2.6 and 24.8.0 (which are shipped by Artix) as well as
the "development branch" 24.8.0.3; they all have the described issues.
Steps to Reproduce:
Seems to be specific to my system; others have been unable to reproduce, but
here goes:
1. Launch LibreOffice Writer,Calc,whathever
2. Try to open a file
(or, try to open directly from file manager / command line)
Actual Results:
On startup, there are no icons in the toolbars but only text.
When opening a file, get a dialog saying "General input/output error".
Additionally, when opening an .ods file in Calc, there is first a dialog about
"importing text" with tons of garbage printed, and only after okaying that the
same input/output error.
Expected Results:
On startup, icons should show, as per the default configuration (GTK3).
When opening files, they'd open.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
