[Bug 411248] Re: openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs
After playing around with different OpenOffice Packages and Kernel Version on both, clients and Server i finally solved this problem with degrading Samba on the server to the packages from intrepid-updates (Samba version 3.2.3). Now everything works fine with OO 2.4.1!

[Bug 411248] Re: openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs
Sorry for digging this one out again but it looks like i'm affected by exactly this strange bug. At my workplace we are mounting public samba shares and home directories via pam_mount (= mount.cifs) on the clients which are still Ubuntu Hardy workstations (with all updates). Version of OpenOffice is 2.4.1 from the repos. Recently i replaced one really old Debian Sarge (samba 3.0.21c) fileserver with Ubuntu Karmic Server (Samba 3.4.0) and with this one we are experiencing the same behavior as described above. Saving new files in opendocument format (odt, ods etc.) ends up with corrupted big files. There's no problem with .doc or .xls. Also i can save opendocument files to those shares from Abiword without any problem. When accessing the shares via fuse (smb in nautilus) everthing works fine. locking = yes does not solve this for me nor does any combination of locking options in smb.conf. With the latest OpenOffice .deb packages (3.2) directly from openoffice.org everything works fine again but i really would like to stick with the official hardy packages.

[Bug 411248] Re: openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs
Hi all I had the similar problem with files being corrupted after uploading them to Ubuntu samba server. The problems started after upgrade from Jaunty to Karmic. I noticed that documents saved in Open Office or even small images saved from Firefox to a samba share were broken. I made a couple of tests including reinstallation of clean Karmic but it did not help. I just added locking yes inside a section describing my share inside /etc/samba/smb.conf and that seems to solve the problem! I guess the issue may be related to changed default locking behaviour in upgraded samba packages. I hope that helps Michal -- openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411248 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 411248] Re: openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs
Hi, I'm new to launchpad, so forgive me if it's not allowed to post questions related to bugs via this method. I found this issue by googling because today I found out that I'm also affected by this bug. A couple of days ago I moved all my documents to jungledisk (mounted on /home/name/jungledisk) and continued working on some OO spreadsheets. This morning I noticed that the OO files on which I worked where all corrupt (so only those that I saved directly on my JungleDisk). When I now see that the status of this bug is 'Invalid' and the importance is 'Undecided' I'm a little bit surprised. The issue is quite blocking. Can someone please confirm the it might be solved in 9.10 (I'm currently on 9.04).

Hi David, following your proposal I installed OO 3.1.1 (build 9420) on my Ubuntu 9.04 unfortunately the same file corruption occurs again if 3.1 is included in Karmic Koala it doesn't look good for me :-( tx for the suggestion anyway Bart -- openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411248 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I tried the 3.1 build and I'm both happy and sad to say that it passed my simple tests which failed with the previous version of OO. Happy because it worked and sad because I don't have root cause and it is a serious enough bug that it will take some time to build up trust that it really works. Tim have you tried the 3.1 build?

[Bug 411248] Re: openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs
Timothy how did you do the CIFS mount using linux command prompt 'mount'? If you used Gnome to do the mount it is using gvfs-fuse in OOo. The only mounts it would not use fuse for are things that are mounted on the command line or by the system during actual bootup, not in Gnome. -- openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411248 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 411248] Re: openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs
To be completely clear about this, if you used Places-Connect to Server, or Nautilus to create the mount it is using gvfs-fuse in OOo. If you used terminal (command prompt) mount to do it, something like this, mount //server/mountpoint /media/foo then it is using the regular linux method. All Gnome, non regular linux method, mounting goes through gvfs-fuse for OOo. ** Changed in: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- openoffice file corruption when using jungledisk or cifs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411248 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

What are you using on server side for cifs? IIRC some older versions of Ubuntu had problems serving CIFS properly.

Oh, and yes since you are using the equivalent of mount -t cifs then you aren't using gvfs-fuse for that mount.

That is weird, I will have to look into it some more and try to replicate the issue. The issue I was talking about was there was an issue of some sort with cifs on Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) (I believe). So this is definitely a new issue I haven't seen before.
