Hi to all. I wrote this mail because I really need help. There is a company that used openoffice for a long time. A week ago we implemented samba server to share documents between people. Long story short...
OpenOffice3(on windows) doesn't open file through "network resources", but I solved by mapping network drive with a unit. (anyway,this is an already know bug). The real bug that prevent us to use openoffice in the company(on windows) is that quite often the opened file (from the share), after some changes (and a save), become unusable. The OO says nothing about that, but after a save, if anyone try to re-open the file, it's unusable. I saw that OO adds some garbage at the end of file... I googled a lot, but it seems it's already a know problem; unfortunately I don't find the solution/workaround (of course I can copy the file on local pc, then work on it and then finally copy it to the shares, but this is not a solution, I can't tell ~30 people to work in this way for every file they need to change). P.s. the problem not always shows up with the small files. P.s.s. I found this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/411248 it seems to me it could be releated. I really need to find a solution for this. Any advice is really apreciated. Thanks.
