Description grin 2003-05-07 13:39:40 UTC
Hard to tell (for me) whether is this an existing bug or not, so please merge
accordingly.

OOo can't import the doc in the URL, starts reading and goes on forever with
100% cpu. Maybe the doc's braindead, but should not freeze OOo anyway.

I'm using the Debianized version.
Comment 1 dankegel 2003-05-08 05:39:14 UTC
Works fine for me on Red Hat 8, both with
the standard 1.0.1 and with OOo1.1beta1.

Can you try downloading non-debianized OpenOffice1.1beta
and see if that fixes it for you?
Comment 2 grin 2003-05-08 08:35:45 UTC
Rather not. It's quite pointless to retrieve 100+ MB just to see that
it works with it, without being able to do anything about it. If it
isn't a general OOo problem then I consider this bad luck and move on.

If you insist I could do it, but what would be its worth (apart from
half a day download)?
Comment 3 chris 2003-05-08 11:20:04 UTC
The document is 243712 bytes, that's not 100MB by any stretch of the
imagination.

I have reproduced this, both with the 1.0.3 .debs and official 1.0.3.1
tar.gz.  I couldn't reproduce with 1.0.2 on Windows so I guess this is
new for 1.0.3 and explains why Dan did not see it.
Comment 4 chris 2003-05-08 11:26:11 UTC
Confirming, target to 1.0.4.
P2 (freeze in basic functionality)
Comment 5 chris 2003-05-08 11:30:51 UTC
Uh, forget my comment "...that's not 100MB by any stretch of the
imagination" - I thought you were talking about the document not a new
OOo download :)

And yes, I did have to go and download 100Mb to reproduce this for you...
Comment 6 grin 2003-05-08 12:14:40 UTC
Chris,

Right. Comment forgotten. [03:30am?] :-)

But maybe we're not on the same sized pipe! Some people DL 100MB in 20
seconds. I can't.

Thanks for the confirmation!
Comment 7 h.ilter 2003-05-08 14:48:41 UTC
Reassigned to MRU
Comment 8 michael.ruess 2003-05-20 14:22:41 UTC
MRU->FME: It loops right after the import has finished. Looks like a
formatting issue. 
In 1.0.2 (also known as PP2) this worked, so we should fix it for 1.0.4.
In 644/645 this works.
Comment 9 frank.meies 2003-05-22 13:35:56 UTC
FME->DVO: Loop in SwDoc::AppendRedline().
Comment 10 Unknown 2003-06-12 19:40:54 UTC
Also occurred with Mandrake Linux 9.1, Gnome 2.2 - OpenOffice 1.0.2,
and 1.0.3. Some documents load, others do not - simply hang.
Comment 11 Unknown 2003-07-19 18:57:33 UTC
document loads fine with OO 1.1 RC1 linux build,

first 2 pages seem to be formatted correctly, however the following
look very strange
Comment 12 utomo99 2003-09-15 06:58:05 UTC
I hope everybody try it again with 1.1 Rc4. 
I cannot get the documents anymore, because it is removed from the
server. 
 Hope it is solved in 1.1 Final.

Or please send me the doc,with the same subject, so I can test on 1.1 Rc4

Thanks

Comment 15 grin 2003-10-09 19:46:10 UTC
Okay, the bug is fixed because the document loads in v1.1 release. 
However the loaded document is severely broken (possibly unrelated to 
this bug), from page3 it doesn't contain the text, only some frames(?) 
and some formatting. It could be a problem of the winword import 
filter, if you can confirm the problem please open a bug for it with 
correct wording... 
Close this if you think the problem is not related.

Comment 17 grin 2004-03-24 14:16:50 UTC
Testing DOC compatibility I tried again to load this file, and realised that in 
v1.1.0 it still contains _empty text_ from page3 on. 

Shall I create a new bug on that, can we use this bug with the attachment or 
something else?
Comment 18 chris 2004-03-25 09:40:29 UTC
haggai->grin: Thanks for your comments.  One of the problems with long issues
that mutate over time is that it is very time consuming to read the issue and
find the problem itself.  It is better to start off a new issue explaining the
new problem and leave the hanging problem out (although you could reference this
issue just in case it might help someone trying to work out what the problem is).

Also, please can you try to reduce the example document to just the parts that
contain the problem?  The ideal test case would contain just a few words that
demonstrate the problem without the rest of the document around it.

Resolving this issue as WORKSFORME, since the hanging no longer occurs in 1.1.0
