Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 5111
Writer crashes while saving file
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:41:21 UTC
When saving a file, I often get the following error message: An unrecoverable error has occurred. All modified files have been saved and can probably be recovered at program restart The program exits and then automatically restarts and asks if it wants me to recover the unsaved file. This cycle repeats each time I try to save it. This occurs about 75% of the time with small files. I am trying to save the file into "My Documents". but also get the error when trying to save to c:\test This occurs when trying to save as an OpenOffice.org 1.0 document. Saving as a Microsoft Word document seems to work.
not www
Do you have some text or a file that we can use to duplicate the problem Jonathan? Thanks for your cooperation.
I think we can close this issue because of reporter's non-reation for nearby 1 year! I do not see such a problem. Rainer
I can't reproduce this either. Not in OO.org 1.00, not in 1.1 Beta. For the record: Reports with "sometimes", "often", "every now and then" or the like describe something that is NOT reproducible all the times. So there is "SOMETHING" influencing/triggering the behavior. It is very likely that this "SOMETHING" is NOT part of Opeoffice.org. This has always to be sorted out. Best if the submitter tries "this and that" in order to avoid one "back stabber" after the other. I can't give a detailed how-to about this. One must get a "nose", here are some hints: - Other programs or background processes - Shaky Network/Internet connection - Screen savers - Modifications of the Operating systems "default settings" - Graphic device drivers (or their settings) - The shareware "gizzmo" one uses that desperately that you don't even know it's running all the time. Just hints, no rules.
Closed as not reproducible.
