Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 13815
OpenOffice 1.0.3.1 crashes when I select the menu Insert->Object
Last modified: 2003-07-22 16:32:34 UTC
When I let the mouse hover over the menu entry Insert->Object in OpenOffice Draw and other applications of the office suite, OpenOffice 1.0.3.1 crashes when it normally would open another submenu. My computer has an ultrasparc processor and I tested this with Solaris 2.7-2.9. OpenOffice is only locally installed (I don't have root access on my machine), but that doesn't seem to be the problem. The crash message is only 'segmentation fault'. The problem is nasty, because I cannot insert formulas anymore (I study mathematics!). Additionally there is an problem, that cutting formulas from OpenOffice Math and pasting them to Openoffice Draw results in adding normal text. For example: If I try to circumnavigate the problem above and type '%alpha' in the formula editor and copy it afterwards, then I get a text object '%alpha' in OpenOffice Draw and not the special character I wanted.
In the "aw, for what it's worth" category, I get the following error at exactly that point on Red Hat 7.2 or 8.0 on x86 running OpenOffice1.1beta1 under Valgrind 1.9.6. I'm going to confirm this bug on the admittedly weak theory that whatever's causing this valgrind error might be the same as what's causing Stefan's problem. Stefan, it would help if you could upload a stack traceback to see if it's the same as this. See http://kegel.com/openoffice.org for instructions on how to get a stack traceback if needed. ==5982== Reading syms from /opt/OpenOffice.org1.1Beta/program/libpl644li.so ==5982== object doesn't have a symbol table ==5982== object doesn't have any debug info ==5982== ==5982== pthread_mutex_destroy: mutex is still in use ==5982== at 0x410D2D2D: pthread_error (vg_libpthread.c:292) ==5982== by 0x410D3BEB: __pthread_mutex_destroy (vg_libpthread.c:1002) ==5982== by 0x412EA2AE: closedir (in /lib/libc-2.2.93.so) ==5982== by 0x49D1AF3C: XPluginManager_Impl::getPluginDescriptions() (in /opt/OpenOffice.org1.1Beta/program/libpl644li.so) ==5982== ==5982== ---- Attach to GDB ? --- [Return/N/n/Y/y/C/c] ---- y (gdb) bt #0 vg_do_syscall3 (syscallno=4294966784, arg1=5997, arg2=0, arg3=0) at vg_mylibc.c:92 #1 0x0000176d in ??

Dup of issue 11040. That issue has a stack dump (which is quite different from the one I saw on x86, d'oh) and a workaround, of sorts. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 11040 ***
Closed as duplicate.
The valgrind error I gave here was for a bug in glibc that shows up on every run. (I was just learning; sorry...)
