Thank you for reorganising the bug report to be more logical. The failing document was originally (years ago) created using MS Excell. It was then maintained using OpenOffice and then LibreOffice. I am not aware of any reason that it should have become corrupted. The actual document I have posted here is a much cut down version of the original which fails, I removed as much of it as I could whilst still retaining the failure mode. I am not able to reproduce the problem starting with a good document. I am quite prepared to believe that the problem is due to a corruption of some sort, the main point of the bug is that opening it in one way leads to success whereas another silently fails (if opened via the launcher or double clicking) with no indication that there is in fact anything in the spreadsheet at all. However if that would not be accepted as a valid bug upstream then so be it. I would have hoped that someone who understands the file format would at least have a look at the file to see what the problem is.
I did not mention it in the report, but is the fact that if I open it using libreoffice test4.ods then do a Save As then the corruption persists in the new file? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899190 Title: Unable to open spreadsheet using --calc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/899190/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
