Description marknewlyn 2005-11-04 18:26:43 UTC 
Hi

I installed 2.0.0-3 from scratch to retest this on Ubuntu Linux 5.10 on a PC (PIV).

If I create a completely blank presentation and then do 
Insert -> File 
Select the attached .ppt file and select all slides and insert them
Saving gives:

"
Error saving the document fred.odp:
Write Error.
The could not be written.
"

If I <ctrl>-<z> to get rid of inserted slides and make a slide or two myself
from scratch and save it works fine.

It seems to also happen (sporadically) when I open both presentations in slide
sorter mode and copy slides across. Trying to save as another format leads to a
crash.

The attached file leads to a slightly different but still fatal problem. The
other one was very big so I didn't attach it.

I can confirm a crash saving to .odp after inserting the given .ppt attachment.
 The recovery process brings up the presentation wizard.  The crash report tool
does not come up.

System: Fedora Core 4 (x86), OpenOffice.org 2.0.0 from official OOo RPMs

Comment 5 christian.guenther 2005-12-13 18:13:30 UTC 
I can't reproduce it on my SUSE Linux.
I'll test it soon on a Fedora core Linux.
Comment 6 christian.guenther 2006-07-12 16:10:42 UTC 
I tested the issue with the latest shnapshot build (src680_m175) on a fedora
core 5 and can't reproduce the bug.
Please have a look if you can still reproduce the bug with the latest shnapshot
version.

Comment 8 christian.guenther 2006-09-15 15:47:11 UTC

Please reopen it if you can still reproduce the bug in the latest version.
