Comment 1 Jens Westemeier 2014-05-21 07:19:52 UTC
I have *.odt and *.ods files on an encfs encrypted (Dropbox based) volume. When I try to open these files, I get the error message "C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\lu2d878.tmp\lu2d87a.tmp existiert nicht."
It seems to be a permission problem for tempoprary files. Files from "C:" can be opened without these problems.
The problem exists on Win 7 with Libreoffice 4.1.6 and 4.2.3. Libreoffice 4.1.0.3 works fine.
Comment 2 shufflebyte 2014-07-21 19:41:25 UTC
Problem still exists in version: 4.2.5.2. Also using Win 7 on a x64 machine.
Comment 3 Joel Madero 2014-07-22 05:03:33 UTC
Version is oldest version confirmed, not newest, updating.

@Jens - do you happen to know of a how to that I can quickly set up an encfs encrypted volume in Windows? I'll test if I can get instructions on how to do so

Same Problem here with version 4.3.0.4 on Win7x64, using encfs through Dokan (encfs4win).
No Problems on Ubuntu.
Comment 7 Tobias Heilig 2014-11-17 06:32:37 UTC
Solved:
Had the same problem with a file on an encrypted volume.
After dismounting and remounting the encrypted volume I could open the file without problems.

I too have this problem with version 4.3.0.4 on Win7x64, using encfs through Dokan (encfs4win).  

Dismounting and remounting the encrypted volume does not solve the problem.

Please could you test with actual version of LO - 4.3.5?

I tried on win8.1_x64 with latest LO 4.3.5.2 today.
Same Problem !!
It seems to be a problem with filenames, path or access rights while opening/decrypting the file from the encfs-dokan-folder.
The tmp-path keeps the same while the names of the tmp-folder and the tmp-file in that path varies, when you try to open the again and again.
