Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 2568
Crash when adding text to rectangle
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:54:41 UTC
Soffice crashes when I do the following: - start new presentation - draw empty rectangle - double-click on rectangle. Cursor changes to 'I' - type some text - click outside of rectangle. (dialog saying unrecoverable error happens) Expected: add text to the rectangle.
Reassigned to Wolfram.
Bug cannot be reproduced in version 641 or an actual internal version.
Bug closed.
I tested again, deleting all old setup files. Problem remains. Attached is small shot of dialog, just to confirm I was not dreaming. Some additional info, if it may help: Computer: ThinkPad T21, 256 Mb RAM. Video: Savage. Kernel 2.4.14 glibc 2.2.4 XFree86 4.1.0 Installation is RedHat, most of packages from RawHide. More interesting bits: The same experiment with ellipse do not cause error. If, not closing error dialog, I switch to the original window, I can type text in the rectangle and this time it do work. When I click OK in dialog, whole application terminates. I can't attach gdb to the running application (thread I attach to immediately get signal and goes to the 'T' state), so no more details. Any ideas what I can do to provide more details?
Created attachment 835 [details] error dialog
Now I got it. I could reproduce the bug on a laptop with Openoffice version 641. In an actual internal version it does not occur anymore. Thanks for your help and patience.
