Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 75912
doesn't work well with embedded archive viewer from KDE
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:31:36 UTC
This is a regerssion from app-office/openoffice-bin-2.1.0 under stable Gentoo Linux: I have local zip files, containing csv files. The csv suffix is re-assigned from oocalc2 to oocalc. If I open a csv file within konqueror it works fine. If I open a zip-archive with ark, then I can click onto a csv file and it will be opened. If I browse the archive using the embedded archive viewer of konqueror I can click onto a csv file and see the splash screen of ooffice for a short time, but the file isn't opened with oocalc :-(
Confirming with 2.0.4 (Novell's build) on Suse 10.2 KDE - see attached screenshot.
Created attachment 44094 [details] Illustrating screenshot.
Right, 2.1 solved this issue from 2.0.4, but now this bug happens again :-( BTW another effect of this bug is that you cannot open a csv file from a remote directory mounted within konqueror using the fish protocol (underlaying is a ssh connection). It looks like a bug in temp file name handling of OO, isn't it ?
TM->MAV: please have a look.
According to the screenshot provided by kpalagin, it looks like the tools requests OOo to open the document using "zip:/<path>" URL, and the office can not open the document. Usually in this case, the system handler should be used to open the URL. But it looks indeed as the fixed already problem with external URLs. mav->tfoerste: Could you please provide more details, how does the office behave itself in the originally described scenario. Is there a kind of error-message ( something like in the screenshot from kpalagin )? Or the file is open in writer application? Is the problem reproducible only with ".csv" files?
>reproducible only with ".csv" files? no, same issue with doc files. In general : - local OO files can be opened faster than before :-) - archived files (I tested it with zips) can only be open from within an archive, if the content of the zip zip file itself is viewed by ark and not within the internal viewer of konqueror) - remotly stored OO files at a fish:// mounted dir cannot be opened, only the splash screen is visible for a short time period, that's all.
Issue solved for me by removing "%U" from the KDE link.
mav->tfoerste: Sorry, I didn't understand the last your comment. Which KDE link do you mean?
Sorry, I meant the shortcut /openoffice.org-2.2-calc.desktop
mav->tfoerste: Thank you for the quick answer. mav->ihi: Looks to be a system integration problem. Sending to you as discussed.
Cloth, can we remove those %U's from the *.desktop files?
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
