[libreoffice-users] insufficient user rights if I change the filename

2012-07-31 Thread Grant
I'm using Libreoffice Writer on Gentoo Linux and I'm getting an error
telling me I have insufficient user rights when I try to save a
document to any filename other than the default Untitled 1 which
saves fine.  Does anyone know what could be causing this?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Other SQL question as it affects Base

2012-07-31 Thread Mark Stanton
I'm listening very closely.

Your strategy is based on the assumption that consecutive readings 
have consecutive primary keys.  Not even just being in the right 
order, they have to be consecutive integers for your strategy to 
work.  This elevates the primary key from internal workings to 
data.  Your strategy is based on the specific values of those 
numbers.

That's not what table primary keys are intended for in the relational 
database model.

As I said in my previous post, it sort of works, and happens to work 
reliably enough for you in your situation.  That's fine.

You say you're a mathematician.  Does coincidental relationship bear 
mathematical scrutiny as a general strategy in that context?

Regards
Mark

My first guess is that your file permissions are not set correctly for 
LO or for final document. If you save as Untitiled-1, can you change 
the filename?

Re: [libreoffice-users] pdf creation issue on a single file?

Easy - now that I've looked at the document.  You have a print range
defined on sheet 20 of 24 (Ann Monthly Comp).  You may be assuming
that - since this print range is set to entire sheet - that it will
have no effect on the output, but that is not so.  If you have a print
range set anywhere in your document, it affects the whole document, and
no other sheets will print except where they, too, have print ranges
defined.  And print ranges, it seems, apply equally to Export as PDF as
to Print itself.

Remove the print range from the rogue sheet (Format | Print Ranges  |
Remove) and everything is hunky-dory.


My heartfelt thanks on resolving the issue of non export of tabs in a 
PDF. Your solution and instructions on how to remove worked flawlessly. 
I have no idea how the print range got there in the first place as I 
have never used them and only upgraded from LO 3.3 to LO 3.4.5


What made you or how did you check for print ranges i.e. what alerted 
you that that might be causing the problem?


Thank you again and I will definitely pass this onto bug 32771 for 
comment #13 and others.


May your keyboards always type true

Sharon,
Print your .odt file to a file (it will need the .ps extrension). Then 
use ps2pdf to make it into a .pdf file. All if you're on Linux. I 
don't know anything of Windows.

Joep





Windows has a PDF printer that is used like a physical paper printer, 
but you have to download it.


doPDF is the free one that I use for Windows.

Are you talking about the Rainfall.ods file problems with all of those 
different tabs for different sheets and graphs?


I received a copy of the file and for a lack of trying anything, I saved 
the .ods file to and Excel 2003 .xls file than closed that document.  
Reopened the .xls document in Calc and it worked.  When I did the Export 
to PDF, it created a 24 page document that has the graphs.  I also made 
sure the page was formatted as Landscape.


I do not know why, but I thought is there was some issues in the file 
itself, saving it as an Excel file and then taking that file and saving 
it back to a Calc document might remove the problem as if it was not 
something that could be recognized by the other file format.  Something 
was in the file's structure or coding that caused the error.  So when it 
got saved to .xls, that problem was not able to be transfered to the new 
file format.


The .xls file was almost 10 times the size of the original .ods file and 
the newly saved .ods file was smaller than the original file by about 3 
KBs.  So maybe that process got rid of the bad coding.


Whatever it was, the Rainfall.ods file works now for printing. You can 
see the graphic sheets in the page preview, where I got a blank page 
with the original one.

[libreoffice-users] FILESAVE on local file system impossible with active network

2012-07-31 Thread Michael Marré

Hi all,

I encountered following issue on my customers productive laptop (fresh
installed Ubuntu-like distribution Linux Mint 12)

If the networking is enabled and customer tries to save an open document 
(loaded from local fs, NOT a network fs!) on a filesystem on the local disk
(e.g. in folder Documents of his home directory) LibreOffice hangs for a 
big time and maybe after an hour (with luck) the document of 1 page text 
is saved.


If the network is switched off, LibreOffice saves within a millisecond. 
When network is on, all mounted network shares are accessible and works 
well.


Also I can save any document with other programs without any issues. 
Thus, the problem is obviously related with LibreOffice and network access.


I took a backtrace and a strace of this behaviour two times:
- one with network active (where the problem is)
- one with networking deactivated (where no problem is)

I won't spam the traces over the list. If anyone would like to have a 
look in this traces just send me a note.


I guess that LibreOffice is asking the network stack for information 
(why, if we store on a local filesystem?) and running

very long until we get a timeout. Thanx in advance for your help!

Erm... just to be complete: Of course I already deleted the .libreoffice 
(User Profile) directory first but the problem remains.


Regards
Michael

As soon as I established that only one sheet could be exported, it
