Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 15527
OOo Fails to Open File with "invalid named references" result in core dump
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:55:29 UTC
OOo 1.1 Beta 2 fails to open files that have named references that are no longer valid, i.e. if one copies just some sheets to a new file and if there were named ranges references (to sheets not beeing copied), one cannot open again the file, almost when the open bar is full an error occurs turning out to a core dump. Tried with different versions and 1.0.2 will open the file with wrong references. I modified the file until no invalid references were left in the named ranges, then I could open it on OOo 1.1 Beta2.

Hi Fabián, sorry to tell you, but I can't reproduce this. Can you check it again and attach a file which results in this crash if opened ? Thanks. Frank
I have tried to reproduce the error and took for notice that I was wrong, the core dump was created because of a duplicate named ranges. I think this would turn to be a duplicate to issue 15434. Still I'm not sure since I got core dump and it wasn't reported like that in 15434, I'll attach a core dump text, and a couple of test files. test2 was created by copying sheets from test1, and the named ranges became duplicate thus causing a core dump while trying to open the file (test2) again.

Hi Michel, yes this is a double to Issue 15434. After Beta1 we found a bug regarding doubled named ranges and fixed it for Beta2. But none ever found the dependencie with loading existing documents. This was discovered a little after Beta2 and will be fixed for OOo1.1 . And yes on Linux this behaviour results in a crash whilste on Windows it simply do not open the document. Thanks for your helps. Frank *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 15434 ***
