You may look at http://opendocumentformat.org/developers/ I did check the file against the OpenDocument documentation. http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/OpenDocument-v1.2.pdf and related documents. -- Piet van Oostrum WWW: http://piet.vanoostrum.org/ PGP key: [8DAE142BE17999C4] -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: FODT Write Error. The file could not be written.
Thanks Piet, your knowledge on the matter is really helpful! Seeing your advice I can only imagine how many errors my templates contains. Just two questions: - How do you validate your FODT files? - Do you have a preferred documentation reference for generating FODT files? I think that the error UI is not correctly describing what is an XML error and it should prompt a more specific error message (for example "Cannot save malformed XML") and maybe a technical detail could be outputted to in the console. I submitted the following bug report: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125019 Maybe this issue is impacting even other users.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: FODT Write Error. The file could not be written.
Hi Regina, Wade and Mike,
thanks for your time.
The problem is common to multiple workstations (various Ubuntu LTS), on
my system the version is 6.0.7.3 (Build ID: 1:6.0.7-0ubuntu0.18.04.5).
As a side note the document was working till an unspecified update, so
I think it has to do with the XML itself and it's not a permission
error ("strace -ff -e open,openat,fstat,read" does not show anything
related to that).
It does succeed to save in DOCX format but fails in ODT and FODT (that
are the formats we prefer).
When saving in ODT:
Error saving the document report_233:
Write Error.
Error in writing sub-document styles.xml.
When saving in FODT:
Error saving the document report_233:
Write Error.
The file could not be written.
Other times I get a generic I/O error.
The smallest file that gives that error is:
http://paste.arn-fai.net/?2873952
By removing the whole 'FooterTable_Row' it successfully saves an FODT.
By removing 'style:family="table-cell"' it successfully saves an FODT.
How can I debug such issues in the future without going trial and error?
Thanks and have a great day,
Francesco

When saving such FODT document I get "Write Error. The file could not be written.". You might get more help if you included information such as your OS and the LO version. There are a couple of very obvious things to check meanwhile - are the file and directory permissions set to allow you to do the save? As it's flat xml, try opening it in your choice of ordinary text editor and seeing if you can do the equivalent save operation from there (you don't say why you think it's an LO issue). -- Mike Scott (unet2 [deletethis] scottsonline.org.uk) Harlow Essex England "The only way is Brexit" -- anon. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: FODT Write Error. The file could not be written.
Hi Francesco, Can it be saved to any of the other formats, eg odt or docx? Can you provide such generated fodt-file? Do you have compared, that a version without content is the same if saved from LibreOffice as if generated by your application? Which OS? Correct rights?
