Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 3789
Saving from spreadsheet (641d) crashes.

Open a new, blank spreadsheet. Save As... An unrecoverable error has occurred. All modified files have been saved and can probably be recovered at program restart. In fact, this is untrue. The file wasn't saved. It may be important that the program was installed by root in /usr/local/lib/OpenOffice.
This also happens on my 641D on a Windows 2000 machine. I can no longer save spreadsheets. I'm going back to 641C in the meantime.
Hi Elf, could you please give me an detailed overview of your environment. That means hardware, Linux distribution, Kernel etc. Hi Luigi, please do the same for your W2K. There must be something special about your systems because other people sending bugs that go beyond saving an empty document. Best regards, Peter
Hardware: 850MHz PIII with 512M RAM OS: WIndows 2000 SP2 OpenOffice: 641D (migrated from 641C) but I don't have a problem with this anymore. I ran "SETUP.EXE" and told it to "REPAIR", and the problem went away. I can now load and save files with no problems. So I'm sticking with 641D, but I'm concerned that the crashed happened. It may be the "upgrade" that caused the problem in the first place. I uninstalled 641C before installing 641D. After I installed 641D, I copied over the "share" and "user" directories in an attempt to preserve my setup. Perhaps that caused a problem. I'm sorry I don't have time to reinstall 641D clean and try again right now.
Hi Luigi, there's no way in the moment to migrate one version of OOo to the other. Every installation has to be started clean. Hi Elf, maybe you're facing the same problem. Best regards, Peter
It isn't clear that this is a problem with installing over the top of an existing setup. Did you try installing as root and then running as another user? What is OOo? I'm running Debian GNU/Linux on a dual pIII 700MHz. For the most part, I'm using packages from Woody.
Tried the Repair function from setup. Spreadsheet still crashes when saving.
Opened a new issue with more explicit information. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 3923 ***
Hi Elf (OOo = OpenOffice.org) Yes, I install OOo most of the time as root/user because it helps to find more issues. I will try it this week myself with Woody. Best regards, Peter
Later.
