 I have cloned the repo onto Windows Vista.  However, with both
 oldest and the latest versions, I observe:

 (*) instdir/program/soffice.exe reports The program cannot find the
 file specified..

 it of course works locally here.. and I cloned it on a windows 2012 r2
 and it worked there...

It works for me, too, on Windows 7. I cloned the repo from cygwin with
git version 2.1.1, and I can start soffice.exe either from the
console, or from Explorer. Thanks for this Windows repo, it will be
very useful.

humm... the usual message is The _system_ cannot find the file specified
is it that that you are seeing:
http://www.drivethelife.com/windows-drivers/how-to-fix-the-system-cannot-find-the-file-specified.html
?
if so check for permission... and possibly:
start a console, cd to where soffice.exe is and run soffice.exe there


 (*) instdir/program/soffice.bin reports The application failed to
 start because sal3.dll was not found  However,
 instdir/URE/bin/sal3.dll does exist.

that does not work here either (same error). I do not think that is
expected to work.


 (*) There is no file instdir/program/bootstrap.rc, which I expected to
 edit w.r.t. UserInstallation.  Or, is this expectation good only
 for Linux?

Absolutely no ideas... but there is a bootstrap.ini, maybe that serve
the same purpose on Windows ?
but surely one would hope that one does not have to tweak it to run,
that would make using bibisect quite cumbersome

Thanks for the feedback.
I was concerned about something like that, hence the test run...
I am not a windows user.. I have no ideas about what things should
look like, and very little idea how to debug that things, beyond what
google says.
I just worked based on the hypothesis that instdir was runnable and
transportable...

[Libreoffice-qa] Bibisect Requests

2015-05-03 Thread Joel Madero

Hi All -

Seems like the request for bibisects is growing quickly which is awesome 
- but we need to keep up with those requests :).



If you have some time to poke: 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/HowToBibisect#Finding_bugs_needing_bibisect


I think we've seen incredible results from properly and quickly 
bibisected bugs (devs seem to jump onto them quickly if we tackle them 
quickly).



All and any efforts *much* appreciated as always.


Thanks so much everyone!


Best,
Joel
