1. Open CSV file with Calc 2. Close file in Calc 3. Try to open the file with other application Expected result: File opened for read/write Actual result: File can be opened only for reading, sharing violation otherwise. You need to close Calc APP ENTIRELY to unlock the file! That's BS.
Hello Urmas, I can't confurm this bug running LibreOffice 4.0.3.1 on mac osx 10.8.3 or LibreOffice 4.0.2.2 on Ubuntu 13.04. I will test this bug on Windows later this week.
What other application? Any? Notepad for instance?
Cannot confirm on Windows 7 on either 3.6.0.4 release nor on Tinderbox from three days ago. Steps: 1. Open a CSV in Spreadsheet 2. Close CSV but keep LibreOffice open 3. Open CSV with notebad Behavior: File opens read/write in notepad I don't see the file locked in read only mode. Urmas - what operating system?
This issue presents for both Excel and Word XML format documents.
I've met this behavior with several LO 4.0.x versions on multiple machines with Windows XP, Vista, 7 (both 32 and 64-bit), 8 (64-bit). For me, this is sign that LO will crash soon (on next save often), loosing data.
Can you please provide a test document so this can be tested against and subsequently be confirmed. If your document contains sensitive data, please clear that or replace it with random information. Do any of you still experience this problem with LO 4.2.0.1: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/ Setting to NEEDINFO until more detail is provided. After providing the requested info, please reset this bug to NEW. Thanks :)
