I set status to NEW because of this confirmation. did you try with 4.4.3.2? is the bug still present ?

However I also noticed something else. If the shared xls is created and saved, as soon as you close the document, it no longer is shared. So even user 1 can't open the document as shared xls document anymore.

I've noticed locking problems when I want to open LO files stored on my Synology NAS, exported via NFS. I ran LO from Linux Ubuntu clients (15.10). When trying to open a file on the NFS server, LO shows an error message (after about 30 seconds, probably a timeout) and proposes to open the file read-only or to open a copy. I "solved" the problem by rebooting the NAS, but it re-occurs after some time. I've just given a quick look at LO sources, and noticed that in sal/osl/unx/file.cxx (openFilePath), locks are acquired using fcntl(F_WRLCK), but I couldn't find code to unlock the file. There is support to unlock files in sal/osl/unx/profile.cxx (OslProfile_lockFile), but I don't know if it's actually used. My assumption is that LO could keep acquiring locks, never releasing them, until the NAS is out of resources.

[Bug 1232872] Re: NFS / lock problem with LibreOffice wth 13.04
I had traced this down to a problem with LibreOffice apparently not releasing the locks. I added comments to https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75488 So, the problem is still here, but no one seems to care upstream. ** Bug watch added: Document Foundation Bugzilla #75488 https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75488 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1232872 Title: NFS / lock problem with LibreOffice wth 13.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1232872/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1232872] Re: NFS / lock problem with LibreOffice wth 13.04
Hi, After upgrading to 13.10, I had to apply the same fix again. I am still not convinced this is the right way of fixing the problem, since LibreOffice should use locks when accessing files over NFS. I guess the question is more to understand who is guilty? - my NAS server (Synology) - my Ubuntu install Apart from making sure lockd is running on my client Ubuntu machine, is there anything else I should do? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1232872 Title: NFS / lock problem with LibreOffice wth 13.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1232872/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
