[Steven Ahlers]

Marvin,

What is the size of the file you are trying to save?
Where are you trying to save the file? On what device are you trying to save 
the file?
What is the size of that device?
How much memory is available on that device?

As a courtesy to you I have sent you a copy of this message. As a courtesy to 
me please only reply to: users@openoffice.apache.org

Fwd: Problem saving file - revised

[Marvin Vann]

Good afternoon,

I’m having difficulty saving the file I’ve been working on for some time.   
When save attempted, the progress bar at bottom progresses about half-way then 
starts over.  Keeps repeating until program force terminated.  

1.  Have, of course, tried repeating with failure.

2.  As experiment, loaded last good saved version; document looks correct.  
Then 1) added a space and 2) deleted said space.  Office now thinks document 
has been modified.  It should save-as identical to the source it was loaded 
from.  Instead the progress bar behaves as described above and keeps trying 
forever, and displays the following message:

Error saving the document Suitland 58 Deceased b:
Write Error
Error in writing sub-document content.xml.

3.  Thinking the program might be corrupted, I deleted and reinstalled Open 
Office.  Same problem persists.

4.  This happened once before several months ago.  Workaround was to open a new 
file and to copy the unsaveable file piece by piece and when complete document 
had  been moved the Save As command worked. Even this now fails.

5.  Looked at your help files, found nothing relevant.

6.  Forgot to mention in previous msg:  Running on iMac with OS = 10.14.6 
Sierra,  24GB memory.

Maybe idea out of left field, but is there plenty of free space on drive
that is target of save? Especially if OS is on that drive too.

If not, try saving to a different drive or a thumb drive.

Have experienced very strange problems with drives that have run out of
space.

Problem saving file

[Marvin Vann]

Good afternoon,

I’m having difficulty saving the file I’ve been working on for some time.   
When save attempted, the progress bar at bottom progresses about half-way then 
starts over.  Keeps repeating until program force terminated.  

1.  Have, of course, tried repeating with failure.

2.  As experiment, loaded last good saved version; document looks correct.  
Then 1) added a space and 2) deleted said space.  Office now thinks document 
has been modified.  It should save-as identical to the source it was loaded 
from.  Instead the progress bar behaves as described above and keeps trying 
forever, and displays the following message:

Error saving the document Suitland 58 Deceased b:
Write Error
Error in writing sub-document content.xml.

3.  Thinking the program might be corrupted, I deleted and reinstalled Open 
Office.  Same problem persists.

4.  This happened once before several months ago.  Workaround was to open a new 
file and to copy the unsaveable file piece by piece and when complete document 
had  been moved the Save As command worked. Even this now fails.

5.  Looked at your help files, found nothing relevant.
