[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 67756] LibreOffice suddenly stops exporting to PDF: The file could not be written.
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67756 --- Comment #24 from Taisuke Yamada tai.documentfoundat...@cc.rakugaki.org --- Click FORMAT, PRINT RANGES, EDIT and make sure the existing range is entire sheet instead of none. What makes it flip to none and why does this affect writing to mass storage? Damned if I know. Dale, tahnks for this valuable info! I was hit by this bug today (I've been able to generate PDF, but it suddenly started to refuse - exactly same as reported), and removing user profile didn't fix, so I was about to give up...this fixed it. Thanks! Since I have never played around with print region setting, I'm not sure what caused it to change to none. Is there key binding or condition that changes this setting unexpectedly? That, might worth looking into as a semi-bug.

Can't remember where I saw this easy fix, but here you go... Click FORMAT, PRINT RANGES, EDIT and make sure the existing range is entire sheet instead of none. What makes it flip to none and why does this affect writing to mass storage? Damned if I know. On my system, I could force the maddening error by setting the print range to none. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67756 --- Comment #20 from sebastian sebastian.ryb...@gmail.com --- Hi All, can confirm the bug, too. For a couple of subsequent releases of LO 4.x.branch (now on 4.1.4.2) the export to pdf hasn't worked for me. What worked once (removing LO, deleting user profile for LO, installing LO) is not reliable - the initial behaviour while exporting reappeared again. My setup is Mac OS X 10.9.1, LO 4.1.4.2, 16 GB RAM on a Mac Book Pro 13. Please advise.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67756 --- Comment #18 from kurt.pfei...@gmail.com --- @Maxim (comment 17): I'm the original reporter of the bug. For me the problem happened independent the state of the setting for 'View PDF after Export'. It was just impossible to export *any* document (spreadsheet, text, presentation) to PDF. The message was The file could not be written. In my original case, it was solved by renaming this directory ~/Library/Application Support/libreoffice/4/user to ~/Library/Application Support/libreoffice/4/user.old and restarting LO. Was was away from my home office for quite a while and could not really follow up. Next week, when I have some more time, I'll restore the user.old directory and see what happens then. If the problem returns, I'll try to narrow it down to a more specific subdirectory or file which may be at fault. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67756 --- Comment #14 from Kevin W. Gagel kwga...@shaw.ca --- I am also having this issue. I've removed my user profile and tried my document and it still fails. I've tried creating a new document and exporting it before editing and that works fine. But I have a one page document with a couple of frames in it and it just cannot be exported into PDF. My OS is Windows 7 and my version of LibreOffice is 4.1.2.3. I was finally able to clear the error by opening a new text document and simply copy and pasting my troubled document into the new one. I made no alterations to the new pasted document. I then saved the new document and then tried the PDF export. It worked. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

On my machine, the default setting had that option not checked. I turned it on so that I could see the PDF immediately after export. After reading through this bug, I unchecked that option and it now allows export to PDF.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67756 --- Comment #8 from BC Admin ad...@bulbouscell.com --- Update - tried logging in with the generic guest account we create on all our Macs (standard user managed with parental controls as well as the company profile limitations). Was able to create a document and export it to pdf after unchecking the box saying View pdf after export. Logged in to the problem user account and was able to open an existing docx file and export to pdf successfully after after unchecking the box saying View pdf after export. Not sure whether this View pdf after export box is the cause or logging in as the guest user cleared something locked in Libre Office but the problem has vanished from the user machine completely. As such it may be pre-emptive to mark as resolved.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67756 --- Comment #9 from kurt.pfei...@gmail.com --- Thanks @Michael from comment #5. I did the following: 1. Closed LibreOffice 2. Opened Terminal.app 3. Issued the following commands: mv ~/Library/Application Support/libreoffice/4/user \ ~/Library/Application Support/libreoffice/4/user.old 4. Restart LibreOffice, open an ODT file. 5. Export the ODT to PDF file successfully. The restart of LibreOffice re-created a brand-new user directory at ~/Library/Application Support/libreoffice/4/. I did not (yet) try to figure out which of the files/subdirectories in user.old is corrupted in a way that prevents successful PDF export and triggers this weird error message. As soon as I have more time, I'll try to find out by moving back, one by one, the subdirectories and files in user.old to user and see if this restores the corruption. I suggest to keep this bug open until a more precise narrowing down of the cause has happened. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

Everybody was standardised with the same software in August including the initial release of Libre Office v4.1. All users are locked down with heavily managed accounts i.e. it has to be me or one of my team who makes any changes. I have one user on OSX 10.8.4 who has exactly the same problem as this. Unfortunately, we do not know when it started as it was only reported today but has been happening for a while. As well as what was originally tried in this bug (with the exception of OO), I have also tried the following:- 1. Check user has write permissions for the temporary folder used by LO 2. Create a fresh temp folder in the user's root directory with standard permissions and set LO to use it as the temporary directory instead. 3. Update LO to the newest release 4. Update OSX to 10.8.5 After each change, I tried to export an existing odt or docx file to PDF and also tried creating a fresh, unsaved file with LO Writer then exporting that to PDF. On every iteration, Error saving the document MyLOTestFile: Write Error. The file could not be written. [OK] Will try changing with the user as was suggested below but am confirming that I have the exact same issue i.e. it does look like a bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67756 --- Comment #6 from kurt.pfei...@gmail.com --- Hi Michael, thank you for your feedback. As you can see from my original report, the problem started, and it started for no apparent reason, in the middle of an LO Writer editing session during which I had repeatedly exported to PDF and checked the results for a rather complex .odt. After the problem started, I couldn't export from LO Calc either (which I had not been opened during the Writer session). Also, restaring LO and rebooting the Mac didn't help. And testing again with the minimal .odt attached to this report didnt succeed. So no, there is no other .odt file where I succeeded to export to PDF. I'll try your hint about running LO with a newly created user and report back the results. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
