Bug ID: 150399
Summary: SAXException: GUI permits "ignore error", CLI has no
feature.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 3.3.0 release
Hardware: x86 (IA32)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Opening a .docx that may contain corrupt or invalid XML data in headless mode
will fail to open, However, the GUI offers a dialogue that allows the user to
ignore any errors and open anyway.
I would like a commandline switch, such as `--ignore-errors` that allows the
CLI to do a best effort, just as the GUI does, rather than failing with "Error:
Source file could not be loaded"
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run a corrupt .docx such as one found here:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/help-saxexception-word-document-xml-line-2-attribute-w-cstheme-redefined/60704
with the command: `soffice --headless --invisible --nodefault
--nofirststartwizard --nolockcheck --nologo --norestore --convert-to pdf
<PATH_TO_FILE>`
Observe the error: `Error source file could not be loaded`
2. Open an instance of LibreOffice GUI, then run the command again.
When prompted, press "Yes" to ignore errors.
3. Command will exit successfully, and a pdf file has been created.
Actual Results:
No ability to successfully run command without GUI
Expected Results:
a flag such as `--ignore-errors` that will give the CLI the power to bypass
such errors
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
OpenGL enabled: Yes
