------- Additional comments from hardy...@openoffice.org Tue Aug 11 22:14:42 +0000 2009 ------- This is how to reproduce this nasty and mean bug: (Happend with OOo 3.1 on WinXP SP3) - Make you C-drive (the drive where Openoffice is installed) pretty full (I know that Windows start warning you, but this happens anyway sometimes...) - Now create a new text document, or open an existing one (also works with Impress, probably with all OOo components) - Save the document to a DIFFERENT hard drive (in my case a different hard drive D), where you DO have enough space. - No warning is issued, you think you are fine... - Close OOo. - Result: You have a small document file saved, but with no useful information in it :( This way I have just lost the result of a whole working day! I consider this a P2 bug because it results in a total data loss without any warnings from OO! Remark: In my case it even happend with quite some space left in the C-drive (200MB). But the presentation document in use was also relativly big (5MB after saving, a lot of bitmap images in it.) Variant: In the first occasion (which I could not reproduce) OO did issue an error message (General I/O Error...). But after issuing this message it would not save the currently loaded document on ANY other medium with enough free space any more. Not even after freeing a LOT of disk space on C and then trying to "save as" to anywhere else. No chance to save my data :( --> total data loss! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
