Bug #: 50542
Summary: Multiples issues with Libo when %appdata% special
folder is redirected to UNC share path
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: LibO 3.5.3 RC1
Platform: x86 (IA32)
OS/Version: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: critical
Priority: medium
Component: Libreoffice
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Hello,
Do the following steps to reproduce the issue:
Let's say LibO is installed on the D: drive (D:\LOdev 3.5)
1)Logon into a domain account (roaming profile or local profile do the same),
and then redirect the special folder "application data" (%appdata% environnment
variable). To do this proceed as this: go into regedit, and then go into this
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell
Folders
change the key called "AppData", and put here a UNC share path. For ex here
i've put this:
\\myserver\users\test123\appdata
But the issue takes place only if the appdata is redirected to UNC path afaik.
Ok now the appdata special folder is redirected.
Then after that create a blank spreadshit calc file called sample_file.ods
(what is inside the .ods file doesn't matter). Copy that file into C: drive, D:
and all drive you want.
When you double clic on the sample_file.ods into the explorer from the C: drive
it will crash with an exception. It will crash on every drive except the drive
where Libo is installed (for me D: drive).
And here is another issue that i've found, here is how to reproduce:
When the appdata directory that is storing the Libo settings is redirected,
such as in the last scenario, if you delete the folder that contains Libo
settings called for me "LOdev", Libo will refuse to start at next start saying
with an error msgbox:
---------------------------
LOdev 3.5 - Fatal Error
---------------------------
The application cannot be started.
An internal error occurred.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
The Libo folder into appdata is recreated but it wont allow it to run with
default settings. It is supposed to recreate the default settings into
%appdata% if you delete this folder.
