https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92151 --- Comment #2 from Luke Kendall --- It would certainly be difficult to retest - I would need to load up my system once again till it was badly thrashing and nearly out of VM, and then edit my novel for some time. Does LibreOffice carefully check for each new and every other memory allocation, to exit gracefully? If so, certainly another possibility is that the Linux kernel selected LO as the process to kill, when VM was exhausted - although that wouldn't explain why there were no backup files for the restore process when I restarted LO. In summary: it would be difficult to reproduce; but in a few weeks from now, I may have time to experiment and see what I can do. -- 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.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92151 --- Comment #3 from MM --- (In reply to Luke Kendall from comment #0) > I think I may have run out of VM. > Well how much memory do you actually have and why is it so low that you need any VM ??? Normally LO doesn't/shouldn't use that much memory, even when loading a 150K file. Could it be a system error/bug/etc that trashes the memory and make LO behave badly ? -- 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.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92151 --- Comment #4 from Luke Kendall --- No, I simply was doing a lot of other things at the same time. I have 16GB RAM and 9.8GB of swap. I had something like 60 chromium tabs open, and 40 Firefox tabs, as well as Thunderbird (with 8000 messages in my inbox). So it was genuinely using a lot of memory. "top" showed that almost all the swap space was in use, shortly before. It was a perfectly legitimate out-of-memory situation. I wondered whether I did a lot of editing much faster than it seemed to me, so maybe LO was killed by the kernel before the next autosave (which I think I have set to every 10 mins). But that wouldn't explain why two of the other files I had had open for editing in LO for many days, also had no backup copies available, would it? Note that I couldn't see any differences in one of the other two files (using Compare document...), though the file sizes were slightly different: -rw-rw 1 luke kendall 103618 Jun 18 21:35 LostGirl-recovered.odt -rw-rw 1 luke kendall 103763 May 29 19:30 LostGirl.odt And I'm reasonably sure that the final document that had no backup, also had lost no work. I hope the above information is helpful. -- 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.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92151 --- Comment #6 from Luke Kendall --- I don't know if it's the same problem, but LO has currently locked up, and is not responding. It has gone to 100% CPU, and has been like that for the last 15mins. Clicking on the Close icon on the LO window does nothing; and the window does not redraw if I move something in front of it. I'm not sure where it keeps its autosaved documents, but there's nothing there where I'd expect them to be: $ ls -lt ~/.openoffice* /home/luke/.openoffice: total 8 drwxr-xr-x 3 luke kendall 4096 Jul 27 2014 4 drwxr-xr-x 5 luke kendall 4096 Jan 16 2014 1.1.0 /home/luke/.openoffice.org: total 4 drwx-- 3 luke kendall 4096 Jul 27 2014 3 /home/luke/.openoffice.org2: total 4 drwxr-xr-x 17 luke kendall 4096 Jan 16 2014 user $ ls -lat /home/luke/.openoffice/4/user/backup/ total 8 drwxr-xr-x 17 luke kendall 4096 Jul 27 2014 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 luke kendall 4096 May 7 2014 . $ ls -lat /home/luke/.openoffice/4/user/backup/ total 8 drwxr-xr-x 17 luke kendall 4096 Jul 27 2014 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 luke kendall 4096 May 7 2014 .

I suggest to upgrade to the latest LibO 4.4.4.3 release. before doing that uninstall 4.4.2, reset the user profile and do a clean new install. also consider updating your Linux distro to its latest stable release (if you haven't done it before) you are free to switch to OOo (now called AOO) but consider that the development of AOO is quite stagnant in the last year and some people think that the project is almost dying tell if the LibO issue persist after upgrading and try to identify a specific reproducible scenario where you constantly reproduce the 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

I'll see how I go with LO 4.4.4.3 Note that a summary of the errors I suffered with 4.4.2.2 were: 1. It locked up (100% CPU) 2. It said it was autosaving at regular intervals 3. When I killed it, it said there was no backup to recover 4. It somehow recovered something anyway, and sai it would save it in /home/luke, but it instead saved it over the top of the file in the working directory. And the main error with the .deb files provided for 4.4.4 x86_64 is that there is not integration into the desktop menus under Ubuntu 14.04 (not Unity, classic style desktop). Anyway, I'll see how I go. I suppose a simple test will be to wait until an autosave has happened, and then look to see if there are any files in ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/backup/. After waiting to see, I can report that for now, there is one there: $ ls -l ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/backup/ total 700 -rw--- 1 luke kendall 612964 Jul 3 16:52 WildThing-w.cover-bigtext.odt_0.odt I hope I won't lose more work. But if I do, I'll file a fresh report under 4.4.4.3 version. -- 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

[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 92151] EDITING: Crash while editing text, and lost 20 mins of work
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92151 --- Comment #14 from Luke Kendall --- Let me just add that although I was feeling grumpy about all this, and the time it cost me, I've had Microsoft Office 10 9and all the earlier versions) crash on me, too, and that usually loses work, and often also leaves the document in a corrupted state that will either crash Word again next time you try to edit the document, or else it'll be so confused you spend hours trying to get it back into a stable shape. So even with what happened, I still prefer LO to Word. -- 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
[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 92151] EDITING: Crash while editing text, and lost 20 mins of work
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92151 --- Comment #15 from Luke Kendall --- It just happened again. This time I lost an hour and a half of work. (Which is weird: I really thought I was saving, manually, much more frequently because I'm now worried about losing work. Could I have been that focused on the work? I suppose it's possible.) It was with version 4.4.4.3 and apport submitted a bug automatically - so I doubt that I need to do a fresh one for 4.4.4.3 this time, right? Some other info... While apport was running, I did an ls on the backup directory, and noticed there was no backup file for the doc I was editing - even though when I'd checked earlier, there was, and even though LO had been interrupting me every 10 mins with the slow autosave. Again, I got three errors during the "recovery": /home/luke/.config/libreoffice/4/user/backup/WildThing-w.cover-bigtext.odt_0.odt does not exist. /home/luke/.config/libreoffice/4/user/backup/WildThing-w.cover-bigtext.odt_0.odt does not exist. Object not accessible. The object cannot be accessed due to insufficient user rights. Once again, it gave a yellow tick for the document in question and misinformed me when it said that it would autosave the documents in /home/luke: after I recovered the file, there was no such file saved there. And when I did a Save in LO instead of saving it in /home/luke (as promised by the message), the file that it updated was the one in my working directory. This time, though, I had moved the file aside first: -rw-rw 1 luke kendall 582189 Jul 4 22:34 WildThing-w.cover-bigtext.odt -rw-rw 1 luke kendall 584508 Jul 4 21:15 WildThing-w.cover-bigtext.odt-aside Despite the file I had moved aside being larger, I could see no differences between the two files. I did a "Compare" of the two documents, but I could see no way to detect the result of the comparison. It occurs to me that I have the eLAIX installed. I have now removed that and I will see how I go. -- 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.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92151 --- Comment #16 from Luke Kendall --- And another crash. Again, no file in the backup area: ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/backup/ Yet this time it said it recovered the file correctly - and it does look good, only losing perhaps 5 minutes of editing. Note that this happened with the eLAIX extension removed, so that can't be the culprit. Again, apport was running while LO had frozen, so I assumed it reported the bug. I've gotten good at taking a photo of the frozen screen, so at least I can easily redo the edits on the current screen's worth of text. -- 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.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92151 --- Comment #17 from Luke Kendall --- Oh, I had another crash today, but I only lost a few minutes of work, and teh auto-recovery worked properly again. That's twice in a row, since I removed the eLAIX extension. (Exit status of crash was 139, if that's any help.) This time, apport didn't detect the crash. -- 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.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92151 --- Comment #19 from Luke Kendall --- I do appreciate that triage a hard-to-reproduce bug is tedious and takes time. I'd ask you to appreciate that a bug that crashes LO and loses all the work from the previous save is also quite a big problem for a user. Is there anything more I can do? It hasn't happened for a while, but I haven't been editing as many large documents with as many comments. If you have a suggestion for something I can do that would make the triag-ing easier, let me know and I'll see if I can do that. I see you've marked the bug as Resolved. That's very disappointing. I think that's a policy error: it would be better to introduce a new category: Postponed or TooHard or something. But I appreciate your difficulty: tracking down a hard-to-reproduce crash in a big program is enormously difficult. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
