 I somehow missed the resolution to the behavior you saw.  Was this related
 to the problem of a Java dependency not being satisfied (something that LO
 didn't break although a workaround is available here) or something else?
 
  - Dennis

I don't know what was causing the original problem. I was running the latest
version of Java but, just in case, I downloaded it again and re-installed.
That made no difference to the problem.

What did resolve the problem was to change the compatibility mode for
swriter.exe to Windows 7. That's what led me to wonder whether LO 3.6 was
fully Windows 8 ready?

Since then I have set Windows 7 as the compatibility mode for all other LO
components.

Don,

Thanks for your suggestion, I did do a Google search before posting on here
and none of the replies were terribly helpful.

I have found a temporary solution; setting compatibility mode for
swriter.exe to Windows 7 removes the problem completely. I'm now wondering
whether LO 3.6 is truly Windows 8 ready?

Thank you everyone for helping.

 Dennis,
 
 The problem then is properly explaining to Win8 users what they should 
 expect in terms of compatibility. But even so, I fear a large number of 
 users will not either pay attention to the vendor statements or be 
 confused by the MS advertising and believe that all software will work 
 with the new UI like the advertised apps. It probably will be a lesser 
 problem with FOSS projects because a higher portion of the user base is 
 more technically astute. If we are having this discussion then the 
 majority of users will be confused by this issue. The scenario, IMHO, is 
*
 who will the user blame

 : MS or the software vendor?
 
 IMHO, I think the compatibility definition is caused by MS being 
 schizophrenic with the OS and trying to make work on tablets/phones and 
 desktops the same way.
 
 Jay

FWIW it wasn't my intention to blame anybody. I had hoped I might be helping
by highlighting what appears to me to be a minor issue with LO3.6 and
Windows 8? I like to think I am more technically astute that the norm,
although now retired I spent over 30 years as a sysprog working with large
IBM mainframe operating systems.

I'm running Windows 8 only because the upgrade price was too good to miss,
other wise I'd have stayed with 7. I'm not using TIFKAM at all (sorry,
TIFKAM - The Interface Formerly Known As Metro) I'm a pure desktop user. I
suspect the vast majority of current Windows 8 users are pretty similar.

I also agree that MS is trying to face two ways at once with Windows 8, the
clunky integration of the desktop into TIFKAM looks to me like a product
rushed to market to prevent MS getting left behind in the rush to tablets.

I appreciate that there will always be a lag on FOSS when the base OS is
upgraded. I asked my original question on here to find out whether this was
a known issue and whether anyone else has seen this (very minor) problem. I
have posted it as a bug though I am still not certain that it's not my
problem after all. My main intention is to help not complain, I'm sorry if
my comment about LO not being Windows 8 ready came across as a complaint.

Thank you all for the help and advice you provide. I wish I were able to
help more but I think my skills are now probably best suited to a museum!

[libreoffice-users] 0xc0000005 error in RPCRT4.dll from soffice.bin

2012-12-12 Thread ubuysa
Since installing Windows 8 I've been getting fairly regular 0xc005 errors
from module RPCRT4.dll caused by soffice.bin. A copy of a typical event log
entry is below. I have not yet been able to establish the actual
circumstances under which this error occurs but it's while using LibreOffice
Writer, the application hangs for several seconds with the disk activity
light on (presumably while a dump is written) and then all is well again.
There is no crash, just this unresponsive hang and the related error in the
event log, otherwise LibreOffice Writer works (apparently) perfectly.

I've had this problem with both 3.6.3 and now with 3.6.4 and it's only
appeared since I installed Windows 8 (32 bit). I understand that it might be
my problem (ie. caused by something else on my laptop) but I thought I'd see
whether this is a known issue?

Many thanks for looking.

Thanks Tom. I must confess I didn't realise LO used a user profile, that will
teach me to look more carefully! I have reset the profile (renamed the old
folder) and LO seems to be behaving itself now, it's early days though ;)

Many thanks for your prompt and helpful answer.

2012-12-12 Thread ubuysa
Sadly the user profile seems not to be the problem. With a refreshed profile
and no customisation at all I'm still getting this error. Since it doesn't
seem to be a known issue it's probably something unique to my laptop. I'll
do some more digging.

Thanks again.
