In the error message the document is always called Untitled1, no matter what I attempt to call it. Also, if I attempt to open a file on the network share through Libreoffice, nothing happens: the file does not open, but there is no error message. Do the share name or the file name or the underlying directory structure contains special characters (accented, spaces, punctuation marks) ?

I had something like this happen to me a while back with OOO, I had read and write permissions but not create. I can't remember the solution. Are you browsing the network or mounting the share. Is the share a guest share or does it have user level access controls. steve Hi :) Could you try saving a text-file or something to the networked drive? That should help you see if you have permissions to create on the file-share.

A few thoughts come to mind, one you could have a corrupt install of LO or something important to communicate with your drive, another you have a misconfigured connection on your pc, or for some strange reason you are missing a package. I would try a quick and dirty check in Synaptic (it may be called Package Manager) click on the status button. If you see a listing for broken packages open it and reinstall the packages. If you do not see a listing for broken packages we will need to dig further. I use a LO 3.3.2 on Pinguy/Ubuntu 11.04. -- Jay Lozier jsloz...@gmail.com -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@global.libreoffice.org In case of problems unsubscribing, write to postmas...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

[libreoffice-users] General input/output error when saving to network drive
I am having a problem saving documents to a share on a network drive. When I attempt to save a file in Libreoffice to a network share I get the message: Error saving the document Untitled1: General Error. General input/output error. In the error message the document is always called Untitled1, no matter what I attempt to call it. Also, if I attempt to open a file on the network share through Libreoffice, nothing happens: the file does not open, but there is no error message. The system is Ubuntu 11.04 on a pc, and the version of Libreoffice is 3.3.2. The drive is a Western Digital MyBook Live. I can view the shares, and if I double click files in Ubuntu they will open in Libreoffice fine. I can also save modified documents to shares on the network drive (can't change the name though, or I get the above error message) . I tested saving files with Simple Scan, and it could save new files to shares on the drive with no problem. Also, I have an old Mac Powerbook G4 with Ubuntu 10.04, and OpenOffice. The G4 can open and save files to the shares on the drive with no issues. I think this is a problem with Libreoffice on my machine. Any though on how I might get Libreoffice to communicate a bit better with my network drive?
