------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Oct 16 09:22:03 -0700 2005 ------- On a machine with NFS file locking working (Fedora Core 1, kernel 2.4.29) and the default OOo setup (SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=1), I had a crash in OOo2.0rc3 while configuring the tool bar. I had to "killall -9 soffice.bin" from the console to recover, as X was wedged and "killall soffice.bin" was not successful. When OOo terminated, it took X with it (X server restarted). After logging in and restarting OOo, I allowed OOo to recover the open files as requested and sent the error report. The two open documents were reported as successfully recovered, but I was only able to open them in "read-only" mode. These documents were saved in my home directory, which is NFS-mounted from another machine. Copying the documents to a new file and opening the copy worked fine, so suspecting an NFS lock issue, I closed OOo, commented out the SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING lines in the soffice script, restarted OOo, and was able to open the original recovered documents without problems. Will nfs file locks time out eventually and allow opening without disabling OOo's nfs file locking? Or does the nfs filesystem have to be remounted or nfs processes restarted in order to clear the file locks? Either way it seems cumbersome, especially when the documents were successfully recovered after the OOo crash. For the time being I am leaving nfs file locking disabled. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
