Bug ID: 154516
Summary: Multiple annoying "Nonexistent file" error windows pop
up in LibreOffice when editing a XLS document with a
wrong link to another document.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.2.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I have an *.xls document with a cell where there is a link to another document
on the samba server. For example:
=INDIRECT("'smb://192.168.0.5/fserver/docs/test.xls'#$sheet.$E$3")
Where Samba server is available but file test.xls does not exist.
Whenever I make any changes to the document, a "Nonexistent file" window pops
up every time. Although the cell already displays an error: #REF!.
The appearance of these numerous windows with an error is a bug that makes it
very difficult to work with the document.
This behavior definitely didn't exist before version 6.0.7.3, but it's already
present in version 6.4.7.2.
Also it is in the current version 7.3.7.2.
Operating system Ubuntu 20.04 or Ubuntu 22.04
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a new spreadsheet in LibreOffice Calc.
2. Insert into any cell a formula with a link to a non-existent file on the
samba server, for example:
=INDIRECT("'smb://192.168.0.5/fserver/docs/test.xls'#$sheet.$E$3")
Where the Samba server (192.168.0.5 in the example) should be available.
3. For any changes in the file (for example, editing other cells), multiple
windows will appear with the error "Nonexistent file".
Actual Results:
For any changes in the file (for example, editing other cells), multiple
windows will appear with the error "Nonexistent file".
Expected Results:
Show only #REF! error in the cell where the link is invalid.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
Operating system Ubuntu 20.04 or Ubuntu 22.04
