Thank you. I did a little research. (There is a web site devoted to 0xc0000005!)
This is an access violation error. It cropped up in a Windows system DLL (RPCRT4.dll is for remote procedure calls and it is part of Windows). It appears that the proximate cause is a request from soffice.bin. Windows 7 compatibility removing the problem suggests that this is related to automatic use of hardware security features that Windows 8 now imposes on applications by default. I checked on the certification requirements for Windows 8 desktop apps at <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh749939.aspx>. It appears that the issues that might need to be addressed are that of section 1.1 and those under section 3. I don't know the extent to which those have been addressed for LibO. I did observe some active work to comply on Apache OpenOffice. I don't know how much the automated tools for verification of the requirements help in this particular area. I don't have LibO on any Windows 8 configurations at the moment. I'll remedy that and see if this is a broadly-reproducible situation. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: ubuysa [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, December 16, 2012 00:41 To: [email protected] Subject: [libreoffice-users] RE: 0xc0000005 error in RPCRT4.dll from soffice.bin) Dennis E.

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. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/RE-0xc0000005-error-in-RPCRT4-dll-from-soffice-bin-tp4024539p4024599.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
