Priority: medium
Bug ID: 76992
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: Other: LibreOffice Pretends a Recovery, where no
Recovery is Performed
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: harald.koes...@mail.de
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.2.1 release
Component: Libreoffice
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
Steps to reproduce:
[1] Start LibreOffice and disable option “Load/Save > Save > Save AutoRecovery
information. Then OK.
[2] Create new text document and insert some text.
[3] Save document.
[4] Insert some more text.
[5] Force LibreOffice to close by
(a) using the task manager (simulates freeze)
or
(b) switching off the power supply of your computer (simulates a blackout of
the power supply)
Case (a): Ignore the save document dialogue. Just wait until you are asked to
end LibreOffice. Click button to end LibreOffice.
Case (b): Just reboot your system.
[6] Start LibreOffice again. The recovery dialogue is displayed. Hence no
recovery information has been saved a recovery dialogue does not make sense at
this point. Expected: Inform the user that LibreOffice has been closed
unintentionally and that all data changes since the last user save (step [4])
are lost. Furthermore the user should be advised to enable the option mentioned
above in order to avoid data losses in future. And at the end the user should
be asked if the last saved document should be opened. A second recovery
dialogue, where the user is informed that a successful recovery has been
performed is not necessary.
Furthermore I tested the recovery behaviour of LibreOffice in case of a
LibreOffice crash. Therefore I used bug 75898. With this bug a complete
recovery is possible. That means also the changes after the last user save
(step [4]) are recovered. But I do not know if a complete recovery is possible
in all LibreOffice crash cases. If not, in this cases the user should also be
informed according the description in step [6].
Operating System: Windows 7
Version: 4.2.2.1 release
