Bug ID: 115742
Summary: Can't save over a file if there is a lingering lock
file from a different user
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: ba...@caesar.elte.hu
CC: mikekagan...@hotmail.com
- While an existing file is open, save its lock file,
- Edit it with a text editor manually by replacing the user name in the first
field with a different one (it's in ",Computer/User," form), eg. add a
character to it,
- Place it next to the original file when the file is not open,
- Try saving an empty document over the file.
=> There is an error (see screenshot).
Similar to bug 108210, which was about opening such files, it should be
possible to save over files that are protected by lock files, but there is no
corresponding file system lock (if otherwise there's supposed to be). For
example this could happen if the locking LO instance crashed.
Observed using LO 6.1 daily build (2018-02-14_23:48:44,
