Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 2720
Word 97 File crashes OpenOffice
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:56:16 UTC
Whenever I load the graphics.doc file available with XBasic into StarOffice 6b or OpenOffice 641, it loads halfway and then crashes. I've loaded the same file into 641 for Linux using Mandrake Linux 8.1; it crashes there also. Download the file listed under "URL" and unzip it; only the graphics.doc file has given me trouble in OpenOffice.
Created attachment 881 [details] Here is the graphics.doc file....
Reassigned to Michael.
MRU->CMC: I can only see the crash with the OpenOffice641. The src641z throws an Assert "Too few lines,table ended early" and after loading it seems to be caught in a loop. This worked in SO5.2. Maybe file an internal bug to get it for final?
MRU->CMC: 'It looks like, that the "Loop" is only a performance problem when generating the index table. I carry the problem to OS/JP.
Looks like the same to me, the too few rows assert is fixed as #96345#, so the hang is somewhere in pagination.
Yes, as OS & JP found out, it is a performanc problem. This will be fixed in the next OpenOffice build.
Fix available in OpenOffice 643C
