Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 56691
Impress crashes when the last entry of an outline is deleted
Last modified: 2005-12-13 13:30:24 UTC
Hi, impress seems to crash each time when I try to replace an text area including the _last_ lines/entry of an outline by pasting a new text. It seems to be related to the paste function, because deleting the same are works just fine. After ca. 10 crashes I decided to switch back to Oo 1.1.5, which seems to work more stable... I use OO 2.0 (finnish localisation), but I have encountered this problem with 2.0RC, too. My system is SuSE 9.3 Pro + KDE 3.4.2. Kind regards, Kimmo
Can you add a bugdoc and/or a detailed step by step description of your action? Thanks in advance.
Hi again, My previous information how to reproduce the bug was not enough. Here additional information how to reproduce the bug: 1) Select and copy a text for pasting 2) In OOo Impress, select the _whole_ content of an outline 3) Paste the clipboard content in order to replace the outline's content. Impress should now crash! Once again, sorry for the incomplete information. I hope this additional information helps You to reproduce the bug. Greetings from Finland Kimmo
I failed to reproduce this. (PC, Fedora 4 Linux, OOo2.0) I opened a new presentation and added some text (specifically as a bullet). I then selected and copied the new text. I then changed to the outline view and selected the entire text of the outline and pasted in the text previoulsy copied text. It worked as expected and OOo did not crash. Did I miss a step?
Hi again, I have tried to find out more facts about the bug and the bug seems to be related to OOo 1.1.x presentations. The copy-and-paste works perfectly with "pure" OOo2 presentations, but the bug seems to be reproduceable with .sxi-presentations created with the OOo 1.1.x and edited with OOo2. So please try to reproduce the bug with a .sxi-file! Kimmo
@kimelo Please attach a test document and contirbute a document-related step by step instruction how to reproduce the crash! Pls also tell whether you tried to contribute bugdoc error report?
I checked with “2.0 German version WIN XP: [680m3(Build8968)]†and was able to reproduce the crash with 2 testfiles I received from reporter, but not with tests I did with own files created with 1.1.4. I hope "kimelo" will also attach his files here. I created an error report with comment "This is an error report for OOo issue 56691".
I have attached two files (oo_crahstest.sxi and oo_crashtest_1.sxi). Do the following: 1) Open the file oo_crashtest_1.sxi; 2) select the whole content of the outline and copy it; 3) open the file oo_crashtest.sxi; 3) select the whole content of the outline of the slide #2; 4) Paste... At this point, OOo2 should crash. I have tested this at least ten times and each time OOo has crashed. Hope this helps! Kind regards, Kimmo

Still not reproducible here with src680m3 under Suse 9.2. Do you use a special localized version?
Sorry, just saw your comment from the beginning. I will ask a developer...
@rainerbielefeld: the developer told me that the stack you generated ("This is an error report for OOo issue 56691") shows that th writer is crashing. Do you still remember what you did with the writer in that circumstance? Thanks.
@wg: Funny thing. To avoid any interaction I did my test again with no other documents open tan both test presentations. The crash was reproducible again, I sent a second crash report and will also attach it here as .txt.

Ir remains inscrutable: I checked with “2.0 (1.9.m122) German version WIN 98SE: [680m122(Build8941)]†and was not able to reproduce the crash. On my WIN XP PC with 2.0 it's still 100% reproducible.
I checked with 2 versions on my PC: “2.0 German version WIN XP: [680m3(Build8968)]â€: Crash still reprodcible 100% “2.0.1 RC2 German version WIN XP: [680m143(Build8986)]†Crash not reproducible (tried 5 times) But, of course, we can not be sure that this is really "fixed" for future, may be we only have the effect that some versions crash, others do not cras.
Hi, the bug seems not anymore to be reproduceable with 2.0.1 RC 4 (src680m145, Finnish localisation from ftp://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/ devel/680/2.0.1-RC4, on SuSE Linux 9.3 Pro+KDE 3.5.0). I have tested it several times and could not cause OOo to crash. I hope someone could confirm this with the same RC on the same platform. Thanks. Kind regards, Kimmo
Thanks for evaluating this. If anyone still has problems with the current builds please feel free to reopen this issue. Thanks for your help.
Closed.
