          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: FILEOPEN: File opening shows that file is corrupted
                    when /tmp is full, locked file afterwards
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
        Whiteboard: BSA
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.6.5.2 release
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

Problem description: I tried to open a spreadsheet file unaware that my /tmp
directory was full (a ramdisk), so LibreOffice showed me a dialog that said
that the file is corrupted and it should attempt to fix it and to not trust the
contents afterwards. It was unable to do so. 

I cleaned my /tmp directory and then proceeded to copy the file to another
location and it opened without any issue and intact details. 

Also, a ".lock....name_of_file" locked the filename in the directory and I
needed to remove it manually in order to have a file with the same name as the
locked file. 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Fill the /tmp partition/directory (this is common in distributions as
ArchLinux that uses a ramdisk, otherwise the hard drive should be full)
2. Open a file
3. Errors will appear and the .lock file should be removed manually. 

Current behavior: A lock file blocks the manipulation of a file with the same
filaname in the same directory. LO says that the file is corrupted but it
isn't. 

Expected behavior: It shouldn't say that the file is corrupted if the error is
LO unable to create a temporary file in /tmp (I guess that's what happened). A
lock file should be removed if there isn't an open session. 

Thanks for a great product and the amazing work you guys have done!
