Bug ID: 89394
Summary: FILE MENU and HYPERLINKs: Freezes/hangs when
insterting hyperlink or clickin File menu for the
first time
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.2.8.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: sarentasci...@hotmail.com
Samba files in registrymodifications.xcu causes hanging/freezing.
First I realized, my LibreOffice applications hang, whenever I click File menu
for the first time. This takes up to a minute and is really annoying. Second
clicking does not cause any freezing/hanging.
After a while I tried to insert a hyperlink in a Writer document. Following
actions caused hanging/freezing repeatedly:
opening Insert/Hyperlink from the menu
typing in the "target" field in the hyperlink dialog (each key stroke!)
Assumption:
I have assumed that LibreOffice tried to reach a network location. I have
previously worked several times on samba folders on different locations. These
folders are disconnected during this behaviour.
Solution:
I found a solution about creating a new user profile and testing with folders
from the old profile. So I replaced folders to see if these are the problem.
Interestingly, none of the folders were cause of the problem but it was the
registrymodifications.xcu file.
I investigated the contents of this text/xml file. There I found many files on
samba locations. One of those files was the one I used several weeks ago.
Location was something like this: file://10.0.0.5/.....
One problem was that there is only two "//" instead of three "///" like with
other entries. I was not connected to this location during this behaviour. I
removed this entry and restored old profile. So far there is no
hanging/freezing.
Therefore, I file this bug for the programmers, who might be interested in. I
think the continous hanging/freezing in hyperlink dialog is abnormal.
Cheers,
Saren Tasciyan
