This bug has returned to live. LibreOffice 4.2.8.2 Compilation Id. 420m0 (build:2), with autobackup active each 15 min. Running on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. ext4 hard disk.
I opened a .doc, (previously created by LOW), made modifications (6 hour session) while continuously saving (each 5 minutes or so). Then I saved and closed the document and turned off the computer. When I came back, the file .doc was untouched as if any changes were made. I looked for similar files in all the hard disk (grep), I looked in the libreoffice backup directory (empty) and also I ran scalpel, at no avail. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/817326 Title: [Upstream] Previously-saved LibreOffice document lost by power outage (became 0 bytes long) - LibreOffice should call fsync To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/817326/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
