Priority: medium
Bug ID: 74224
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: FILESAVE: Crash with DATA LOSS, likely autosave hang
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: michaeljtbro...@gmail.com
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.4.2 release
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
While typing a lengthy document which was derived from a Google Docs document,
Writer just froze then exited. 500 words had been lost when I opened up
LibreOffice and tried to recover the document.
I suspect this is an autosave issue where autosave is failing and just bombing
out with a crash.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a Google Document which consists of a table of text with 11pt Calibri
as the body.
2. Export the Google Doc as .odt and save it locally.
3. Open up the downloaded .odt in Writer, type a few lines in the table of
text.
4. Select the table of text (Ctrl+A) and change its style to Arial 10pt.
5. Carry on typing several paragraphs.
6. At some point, Writer will freeze and bomb out. On recovery you'll realise
that you are missing the text you entered.
7. Data loss is bad. Really bad.
Current behavior:
Writer crashes unexpectedly, no new text entered since document was last opened
is saved. This is a DATA LOSS bug.
Expected behavior:
Writer autosaves without crashing. Writer is able to recover the most recently
entered text.
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.1.4.2 release
