I understand your reaction, I also think LO isn't ready for big (600 pages is
rather big) documents above all if you add some specific layout.

Let's rather put INSUFFICIENTDATA since data are no more available according to
comment 29.
Of course don't hesitate to reopen this tracker if you change your mind and in
this case, please provide required information.

--- Comment #31 from wa4...@yahoo.com ---
This bug was opened in 2014. 2014 was a long time ago. I provided extensive
information, including multiple sample files to illustrate the problem at that
time, but no resolution was forthcoming.

Because of this issue and the lack of resolution, I no longer use LibreOffice
for serious work, which I consider a shame. Microsoft Word won that battle, to
my chagrin.

I did, just now, open the current incarnation* of the document, which is now
well over 600 pages, in LibreOffice as a test. It did not become unresponsive
during the few minutes I tested with it, but I did not spend a lot of time.

Time to move on, and spend the effort on solving today's problems. Let's mark
it as solved and close the issue.

Warm regards,
Nathan


* Yes, this project is something I am still working on, albeit slowly. I began
the genealogical research project in 1997, and still hope to complete and
publish it. ;)

** Please read this message in its entirety before responding **

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today,
LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed
bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this
bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the
details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in
getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information
from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to
RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help
- About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular
meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a
REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your
bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from
http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword

I am sorry to say, the last version 4.3.1.2 pretty well completely broke my
ability to use LO to edit the file, as well as my faith and trust in the
software.  The formatting went completely nuts, LO crashed and lost about 50
pages of prose, and about 30 pictures, and would go bonkers every time I tried
to touch the file.  Thanks goodness I had plenty of good backups.  The 164 MB
file dropped to 72 MB after being opened with LO.  I abandoned LO and moved
completely over to cousin OO where I have been getting good results.  I have
not tried 4.3.2.  LO 4.3.1.2 did seem to work well for some smaller documents I
tried it on, but it has troubles with the big one.

In addition to the issues with stability and the formatting problems, the loss
of the navigation buttons on the lower right side was the final straw.  With a
document of this size, I NEED those buttons to effectively move around the
file.  Moving them to the search bar was incredibly stupid.  The document is
nearly 400 pages now.  OO is quite stable except for occasionally doing strange
things when creating the PDF file, usually inserting undesired white space.

At this moment I have no plans to return to LO for the time being, at least as
long as the navigation buttons remain useless and OO continues to work for me. 
That might change at some point, but my interest is in working on my research
project, not debugging software.  If you would like to experiment on your own
with the ODT file, contact me privately and I will share.  I do not have time
right now to reinstall LO and try to reproduce the problems.

Pretty much all of the problems center around images inserted into the pages. 
Any image, or combination of images that covers more than about 50% of a page
are trouble.

I have experimenting problems with a file I've created with OpenOffice.
100 pages, images, incrusted calc, frames with tables in it... So, quite
complicated file.
It opens with no problem on OpenOffice 3 on Windows. When I try to open the
same file in LibreOffice 4.2.2 it frozes.

--- Comment #17 from Björn Michaelsen  ---
(This is an automated message.)

LibreOffice development currently prioritizes bugs with the so called MAB (most
annoying bugs) -- as this bug has not run through that process (including
writing a short rationale for this bug being a candidate and other who are
watching the tracker bug silently approving that rationale etc.) its priority
is set to high. Note this is effectively no change in the urgency assigned to
this bug, as we are currently not making a difference between high and highest
and severity is untouched.

You can find out more about MABs and how the process works by contacting
libreoffice qa on irc:

 http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=libreoffice-qa

The QA wiki page also gives you hints on how to get in contact with the team
(if IRC fails you, your next best choice is the mailing list):

Thanks for your interest.

I placed an obfuscated version of the large file on my Dropbox.  You can
retrieve it here:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/11336636/Gregory%20Family%20Origins%20-%20Submission.odt

I also have another file, a chapter excerpted from the larger file.  There are
two versions of it, one that triggers the problem, or at least a somewhat
similar mis-behavior, and one that does not, yet nothing appears much different
between them.  

They are at:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/11336636/Gregory%20Family%20Origins12y.odt

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/11336636/Gregory%20Family%20Origins12z.odt

I am not sure they are exactly the same problem, but may be related.  In any
case, the fact that one file provokes problems, and the other does not is very
interesting...

Good luck

wa4otj: Could you attach the file or put it available somewhere so more people

Roman gave interesting info (I think about SwTxtFrm::HideAndShowObjects) but it
could be interesting to retrieve backtraces at random. Moreover, devs would be
able to know if a patch would solve or not the problem by trying to reproduce.

Have you tried version 3.4.6 with the display options off?  I haven't actually
tried seeing what happens in later versions with my document and this error
because of another bug which is preventing me from upgrading. Another thing
I've found that worked until I closed the document and re-opened it was to
create a new document and insert the old one using the File command from the
insert menu.

I have tried many variations, turning off features, changing this and that,
without impacting the issue.  I am still able to edit the document, and add new
material, but I am no longer able to produce a PDF or update the indices.  At
first, it would only crash occasionally on updates, then it became common, but
persistence would allow me to do a good update.  Now I am increasingly stuck. 
Writer is becoming unusable for me.

My partners in the project are pressuring me to produce a publishable eBook
soon, or at least an updated PDF.  I am increasingly feeling in a quandary as
to what to do.  Perhaps I shall have to try to move to Word, or other system. 
I shudder at the thought of the re-working that might require.

Is there anything else I can do to help get to the bottom of the problem?  I
really need to get beyond this issue...

Thanks,
Nathan

documents. My document runs about 3000 pages but is only about 2.5MB in size.
Yours is 94MB with about 270 pages. Yours also has text boxes and images which
mine doesn't have. 

I would try turning off some of the other display options and see if that makes
a change when a page formatting update is done. My document isn't using any of
those other items so that may be why mine works when I turn off the commenting.
It may be you can turn them off, do an update, then turn them back on again. 
Of course in my experience with the comments, if that works it will need to be
done again the next time the document is opened.  But it may give an indication
where the problem is and a temporary work around until it's fixed.

A bit of clarification:  The Mac and PC versions have the option in very
different places.  Took me a bit of poking around to find it.  But once I found
it, and turned it off, and double checked, the answer is nope, it still fails
even with the comments disabled.  It does seem to have a bit of an impact,
whihc I presume is due to a shift in workload.  But it still dies.

When I just unchecked Comments under the View menu I still experienced
problems.  But I haven't experienced any problems yet when I unchecked the
comments box in Tools - Options - LibreOffice Writer - View.

Oh, I see, under Preferences|View there is a comments checkbox  I guess
that is what you mean.  That is unchecked also...

Perhaps I'm missing something, but I have no comments in my Document, and under
the view menu, "Comments" is grayed out.  Is there somewhere else you are
saying to turn off comments?

If the displaying of comments is turned off in options it seems to function
normally (at least so far).  Also a slight delay in the display of characters
when typing seems to be gone also.  It would seem that when the comments are
being displayed extra work is being done which shouldn't be happening.

I have a complex document that for some reason has started to do exactly this
also.  Performing an update on the page formatting will cause it to crash every
time.  If a manual update isn't performed then at some point it seems like it
will do it on its own and crash after a period of time trying to update.

(
Sorry for the long delay! However, reproducing issues which make it necessary
to let an application run for hours (repeatedly!) in the foreground to see
if it will finally crash, or finally recover from the apparent freeze, is not
what I can do by the way in gaps of my daytime occupations ;-)
)

Again: thank you very much for your bug report!

At least one problem with the file in question seems nearly 100% REPRODUCIBLE
for me (tested with LibreOffice 3.6.3.2 on Mac OS X 10.6.8, Intel):

> The primary symptom is that writer suddenly becomes unresponsive.
> This seems to coincide with any operation that might cause a repagination
> of the entire document.  Usually, hitting Tools|Update|Update All will
> provoke the issue about 90% of the time [...]

Steps to reproduce:
0) Reset your LibreOffice user profile (to preclude any influence
   of local settings)
1) Start LibreOffice.
2) Open the file.
3) Without waiting too long, select “Tools > Update > Update All”
   from the menu bar.
4) Let LibreOffice work; it seems frozen, but I wanted to test
   if it would finally recover from this state.
   I haven’t done exact time measurements,
   but on my MacBook Pro 2010 with 2.53 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB RAM
   and SSD hard drive this will take about 45 min.
-> Finally, LibreOffice crashes.

I will attach the log file created by Mac OS X for the crash. It is of
impressive simplicity: Thread 0 crashed with EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV),
and the stack trace for Thread 0 just reads:

0   libswlo.dylib  0x211b7e60 SwTxtFrm::HideAndShowObjects() + 608
1   libswlo.dylib  0x211b7e78 SwTxtFrm::HideAndShowObjects() + 632
 the last line repeated 510 times 

This crash is already reproducible by the steps given above with LibreOffice
3.3.0, and also with every version I have tested (3.4.0, 3.5.0, 3.6.0.4).
So this problem was probably inherited from OpenOffice.org.

It is still present in the current daily build:
LOdev 4.0.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: ed8067; pull time: 2012-11-15 03:54:19).


I hope that further research will help to isolate what exactly causes so much
work for LibreOffice that it finally crashes ;-) But for now: at least this
apparent freeze and final crash are really almost 100% reproducible.

OK, I have received Nathan’s sample file -- thank you! -- and will try to
reproduce the bug. (Of course, I have already managed to reproduce it in a
special case, but I want to check some other possibilities, to get a more
complete image of the problems.) Please be patient, there are many bugs to deal
with and I have not got much free time ...

Thank you very much for your bug report!

In order to reproduce the problem, I would like to test your file. I am not a
developer, but an experienced QA volunteer (“bug wrangler”, as we call it); the
normal procedure here is that first some QA volunteer tries to reproduce the
bug, checks for dependencies, duplicates etc., and then, if successful,
forwards the bug report to the responsible developer(s). I am using the same
Mac OS X version as you, and a similar machine, so I guess the chances are good
that I can catch the problem.

So, if you could please send the file via private e-mail to me:
, I will keep it confidential and try to reproduce the
issue.

Thank you very much!
