[framework-issues] [Issue 109062] extensions: Extension Man ager not working if extension contains wrong d escription.xml (here: extension-description)

I have overlooked this. The documentation is perfectly clear. Regarding the issue itself, that extension manager is killed if the xlink:href points to a non existing file, it is part of of issue 100744 I see this issue as a bigger problem than the priority of 100744 suggest. If an extension with such a faulty description.xml is deployed (e.g. via update), then the average user likely needs to make a clean reinstall of OO to recover from this problem. It is not even possible to update the faulty extension to a fixed version. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

But even here, the expression _into_ the extension clearly says that the file cannot be anywhere in the internet. The syntax is described in the referenced Wiki page http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Extensions/Description_of_XML_Elements#Element_.2Fdescription.2Fextension-description There it says : "xlink:href Required. The value is a relative URL to the description file within the extension." IMHO this is perfectly clear : - the description file is _within_ the extension - hence an http URL cannot be a relative URL to that file. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=109062 --- Additional comments from cfr...@openoffice.org Tue Feb 9 11:33:40 + 2010 --- The problem also exists if the extension-description element of description.xml refers to a non- existing local file. To reproduce this problem quickly replace step 3 above by 3b. Add the following lines to description.xml: Note: The problem is that in my situation an extension with the erroneous description.xml file installs, but once it is installed, extension manager does not show up anymore, hence it cannot be unstalled or update. @jl: Thanks for the reference. I now see that the developer documentation states "One can put a couple of localized description files into the extension and reference them in the description.xml. ". But when I read the documentation of description.xml it was not clear which element has to (!) refer to a local file and which element can (!) also refer to a remote file. For example release-notes can refer to a remote file. Nevertheless, the problem is not tied to the fact that extension-description referred to a remote file. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

How to reproduce this problem quickly: 1. Open the directory ~/Library/Application\ Support/OpenOffice.org/3/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages This is the location where OpenOffice stores extensions. 2. Open a subdirectory and its subdirectory. You should see the description.xml of one of your OO extensions (I assume that you have installed at least one). 3. Add the following lines to description.xml: http://www.somehost.com/somedirectory/extension-description.txt"; lang="en" /> 4. Safe this description.xml. 5. Restart OpenOffice 6. Bring up "Extension Manager..." Result: Extension Manager will not come up. It is impossible to uninstall the extension through OO. To Recover: Open the file again, delete the "extension-description" element. Note: From the developer documentation it is not clear that extension-description has to point to a local file. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
