I was also always sceptical of reading/writing directly from/to external storage, but this issue had never occurred in any of the preceding 3.x or 4.1 versions of LO on OSX (or in any other version of StarOffice/OOo/LO/AOO/NeoOffice that I have had). So, I was naturally caught "unawares" as they say. After many hundreds of hours of using previous iterations of LO with external storage, one certainly does not expect it to behave in a contrary fashion in an allegedly "stable" release. I can confirm that the problem only occurs on OSX when writing to external storage. And never occurred with 4.1.x, so this is new to 4.2.5 at least. I can't however state with accuracy that it didn't occur with 4.2.3 (which I also have), but seeing as I was using that before, I'm pretty (although not absolutely) certain that I didn't encounter the problem there either. > > I am not discounting an LO problem as your description sounds similar to > this bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78260 The example > file does open in Writer (displays garbage), but cannot be opened by an > archive manager. It is certainly similar, to the extent, that the file is corrupted, however, I can not even open it in any version of LO, OOo, or NeoOffice. I had someone test the file on Linux last night, and they too were unable to either parse it as a zip file or open it in any version of LO that they had. Thanks for your input Owen.
