Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 4470
crash using gnome 1.4
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:56:16 UTC
When I start OO as a normal user, there always appears the import address book dialog and the OO-mainwindow crashes in background. When I then press any button in the dialog, it also crashes with an "unrecoverable error" message and soffice returns to the console-prompt. As root user, OO seems to act as normal.
The appearence of the import adress book dialog seems to be an idenpendent bug (see issue 3082). An addtion to the crash: OO only crashes using Gnome 1.4 (with Sawfish or Windowmaker). No Problems using KDE 3.0 or XSession.
Windowmaker 0.80 works, Gnome 2.0 (beta 01052002) does NOT.
Is this a duplicate of issue 4494? Please check if the workaround there helps you.
The mentioned workaround in issue 4494 solved the problem (tested with Debian Woody and Gnome 1.4). Thank You for the hint! *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 4494 ***
