Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 10624
Save with password automatically set without user notification
Last modified: 2004-03-15 16:46:09 UTC
After cutting / pasting between two presentations, the one just created is saved. When trying to reload it, I've been asked for a password (that I never choosed). Unfortunately, I've not been able to reproduce it on purpose. Nevertheless, users should be warned to always save with 'save as' and uncheck the password checkbox if necessary. Otherwise, the work is lost. Franck
Forgot to add that this happened three times yesterday, not just once...
Set to new.
Reassigned to Christian.
change the target.
I can't reproduce the bug. Could you reproduce the bug again? Please send me a step by step description how to reproduce the bug.
I still can't reproduce the bug. Please test if you can still reproduce the bug in OOo1.1Beta.
I close the issue. Please reopen the issue when the bug still occures in the latest version (OOo1.1Beta) Write a step by step description how to reproduce the bug when it still occures.
This is happening to me too and it's wreaking havoc with my macros (add to that the bug where OOo hangs if a macro exception occurs and OOo is hanging because of this problem). I am using OpenOffice.org 1.1.0 on a Linux PC. As soon as I find a recipe to reproduce this, I will post it here.
I reopen the issue.
this issue is duplicate to issue 16297 *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 16297 ***
This issue is duplicate to issue 16297 Issue 16297 is fixed and integrated in OOo 1.1.1 I close this issue. Please reopen it if the bug still occures in OOo1.1.1.
Created attachment 13728 [details] This file has the password problem... plus the "password" that works is just an empty password field.
An additional note is that I have been working in Writer, and not Presentation, so this is more widespread than having just been in Presentation (is "framework" the catchall for when it applies to more than one component?). The thing that I find puzzling about this, and maybe can offer a clue (again, until I come up with a sure fire recipe...) is that the "password" needed is just the empty password field and then you can press OK. When I try to create a document and save it with a password, it does not allow me to set an empty password on the document, meaning that it has nothing to do with a setting accidentally being hit (which was my first suspicion before finding this earlier bug report). When you use "File->Save As..." and check off the "Save with password" box, it saves fine and seems to be okay after that... Very puzzling. Anyway, it seems as though this is a duplicate of 10624 and should be fixed in 1.1.1 ... I'll upgrade and see if the bug goes away...
I tested it in OOo1.1.1rc. - load the file - confirm the empty password - File/Save as - deselect the password setting - Save. While reloading the saved file the password is gone. We did a fix that no empty password can occure in files created and saved with OOo1.1.1rc. Only when you work with an older version and save again the file the empty password could occure again. Regards Christian.
I have requested that issue 16297 be re-opened because the bug is still a showstopper for us in OOo 1.1.1rc, and the fix that was implemented to resolve 16297 only fixes the problem in certain cases. I have added a detailed description to and will continue tracking it through issue 16297 (but thought I should put a comment here too, just in case)...
