Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 16006
Crash when spawn with wrong filename
Last modified: 2003-07-30 13:23:42 UTC
Soffice crashes when is launched with bad parameters on command line and is still runing in other instance. It's may be tryed: soffice exist_file & soffice nonexist_file & It causes crash second soffice.bin with uncoverable error and froze first one. Both soffice.bin was remain in memmory. Second can be killed by SIGTERM but fist one must be killed by SIGKILL. When second have more paremeters (soffice nonexist_file1 nonexist_file2 ... &) it's happend after error message with last parameter. It causes lost unsaved data of all previously opened files.
It's detected on two diferent PC with RH9 under GNOME and IceWM. One of these processes reports: sh: line 1: crash_report: command not found
Sorry, I can't reproduce this here. Can you submit a symbolic stack traceback, please? Instructions are at http://kegel.com/openoffice Thanks! - Dan
I try It, but I cant get any useful information. I was modify go script to I can pass parameters to soffice.bin kangaroo:~ > cat gooffice #! /bin/bash bin=/usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1Beta2/program/ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$bin gdb --args $bin/soffice.bin "$@" and try gooffice noname but as You can see.

I tryed download 644m11 and test it in this version. I think it's depend of way how get focus window with previously started office.bin. When I Raised this window by Alt+Tab it's frozen and Xlib: sequence lost (0x10000 > 0x48d1) in reply type 0x0! Both processes stay in memory and must be killed by way describet at my first description. When I Raised this window by mouse click and I newer click in this window before it not frozen. But if I open some file and click in the window without any modification and after it I run second soffice with bat args it crashes as with Alt+Tab. When I Exit this window by clicking to frame it crash depend previous cliking as above.
Every time I was modify opened file, It was frozen not depend of geting focus on window. I tryed start trought gdb this first proces and I get some backtrace (after start and full load file I write word test in this file and after this I started /usr/local/OpenOffice.org644/program/soffice noname &)

These may be Red Hat 9-specific problems. I'll have to update my copy of Linux to test that idea. Thanks for the crash logs on 644. It'd be nice to have 'em for 1.1b2, though. I have no idea why gdb failed for you with the newer OpenOffice; perhaps Valgrind would be able to generate a good stack traceback for OpenOffice1.1beta2 even if gdb can't. You might try that if you don't want to wait for me to update my system :-) Instructions at http://www.kegel.com/openoffice/#valgrind but they're not as easy to follow as the gdb instructions... sorry...
Believe it or not, I ran into this by accident while valgrinding for some other reason. Try again once OOo1.1rc1 is released (next week?). If that doesn't fix it, ask the guy who fixed issue 16270 to have a look... *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 16270 ***
In 1.1rc2 solved.
Closing.
