Priority: medium
Bug ID: 75570
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: CONFIGURATION: Space oCheck on custom install
preventing install of libreoffice.
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: sunnyday...@googlemail.com
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.0.4 release
Component: Installation
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description: The space check on custom install is preventing
installation of libreoffice where an install location has been selected that is
on a partition accessed through a volume mount folder.
The space check is calculating the requirement for 868MB of space on the C
partition and not on the volume mount folder partition.
The C partition does not have this amount of freespace while the Volume mount
folder partition has 1.5GB of freespace.
Custom install location is off the type c:\volume mount folder\libreoffice.
An install of libreoffice to a volume mount folder partition on a test system
worked susccesfully and Libreoffice worked correctly from this install
location. In this case there was 1GB+ of freespace on the C partition.
The 868MB space requirement is incorrect as on the test system only
approximately 360MB of space was required.
The space check incorrectly checking space on the C partition and not on the
the volume mount folder partition.
Suggestions for correcting this are:-
1) make the space check optional
2) give an option to continue with the install if the space check detects
insufficient space.
3) make the install check the install path for Volume mount folders and check
the volume mount folder partition for space and not the C partition.
4) Correct the calculation for the space requirement. A requirement of 868MB is
also given on the typical install
The file system is NTFS.
Steps to reproduce:
1. create partition
2. create volume mount folder on C partition to this partition.
3. fill up C partition until less than 500MB freespace.
4) launch install
5) select custom install
6) change install path to volume mount folder partition location
7) select next
Current behavior:
space check shows insufficent space on the C partition.
Expected behavior:
should check the volume mount folder partition for space and not the C
partition.
