Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 46341
unexpected error about 1.1.4 BASIC
Last modified: 2005-04-15 09:29:27 UTC
I created a new document and went to save it as a .odt file. I got a couple of error dialogues complaining about BASIC relating to 1.1.4, yet I am running OOo 1.9.87!!! I will include screen shots of the first error dialog and the paths used. The new document gets saved OK, and loads without any error dialogues. OOo 1.1.4 was the previous version loaded on this machine. At no stage have I exlicitly used BASIC in OOo, nor was I aware of anything requiring BASIC being loaded..
Created attachment 24437 [details] unexpected error dialogue
Created attachment 24438 [details] paths actually set up
Reassigned to JSK.
I get the 1.1.4 BASIC error dialog when OOo decides to autosave on an existing document.
hmm, when looking at your OOo paths everything looks fine, what 1.1.4 and 2.0 however _could_ share is your temp directory: /home/gavin/tmp (can you maybe recall that you set your 1.1.4 tmp-directory also to /home/gavin/tmp?) _Maybe_ 1.1.4 left some autosave files there and the 2.0 routines will incorrectly pick them up again and consequently refer to paths from the old installation. Gavin, could you post an 'ls -al' output of /home/gavin/tmp? Also did you use any other version between 1.1.4 and m87 on your system such as f.e. the beta 2.0?
I don't think I set my 1.1.4 tmp-directory to /home/gavin/tmp, probably was /tmp (I'm assuming OOo temp files start with "sv"): $ cd /tmp $ ls -al total 156 [...] drwx------ 2 gavin gavin 4096 Apr 4 08:55 ssh-SqV10748 drwxrwxr-x 2 gavin gavin 4096 Mar 21 12:31 sv49f.tmp drwxrwxr-x 2 gavin gavin 4096 Mar 21 12:57 svgfg.tmp -r--r--r-- 1 root root 11 Apr 1 09:24 .X0-lock [...] $ pwd /home/gavin/tmp $ ls -al total 12 drwxrwxr-x 3 gavin gavin 4096 Apr 1 18:38 . drwxr-xr-x 46 gavin gavin 4096 Apr 4 09:48 .. drwxrwxr-x 2 gavin gavin 4096 Mar 24 14:14 sv34o.tmp $ cd sv34o.tmp $ ll total 0 -rw-rw-r-- 1 gavin gavin 0 Mar 24 14:14 sv353.tmp -rw-rw-r-- 1 gavin gavin 0 Mar 24 14:14 sv35f.tmp -rw-rw-r-- 1 gavin gavin 0 Mar 24 14:14 sv35g.tmp versions since 1.1.4: 1.9.79 (beta 2.0) 1.9.84 1.9.87 (current version used) I did not get the error with builds prior to 1.9.87. On autosave, the error is only displayed up the first time autosave is invoked.
