[libreoffice-users] insufficient user rights if I change the filename
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? - Grant -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [libreoffice-users] Other SQL question as it affects Base
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?

May your keyboards always type true Regards Hylton 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. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
[libreoffice-users] FILESAVE on local file system impossible with active network
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.
