Description fb_capt_sacto 2012-09-26 00:40:59 UTC
I'm running Windows Vista with all updates.  I don't know what happened to Libre Office because it was working OK just a few days ago.  I have removed and re-installed the program and still no go.  The program begins to load and then quits.


This is info from Event Viewer.

Faulting application soffice.bin, version 3.5.6.2, time stamp 0x5021be3b, faulting module MSVCR90.dll, version 9.0.30729.6161, time stamp 0x4dace5b9, exception code 0xc0000417, fault offset 0x0002e9f4, process id 0x11ec, application start time 0x01cd9b7d5e9a7310.
Comment 1 Julien Nabet 2012-09-26 18:17:46 UTC
Did you upgrade Java recently?

Could you try again after having rename your LO directory profile? (see http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile)
Comment 2 fb_capt_sacto 2012-09-26 21:47:23 UTC
Thank you!  Resetting the User folder did the trick.  I'll track down the bug at a later date.  Again "thank you".

Comment 3 Julien Nabet 2012-09-27 05:31:02 UTC
Great for you :-)

Did you keep your old LO directory profile?
If yes, could you zip it and attach to the bugtracker?

Finally, had you upgraded your Java version recently?
Comment 4 Petr Mladek 2012-10-23 15:39:03 UTC
OK, we have a workaround. There are many users without this problem, so it must be a bit special => can't block the release => lowering the severity a bit.

Please, attach the old problematic user configuration. Also, please answer the question about java. It will help us to fix it and avoid such a problem in the future.
Comment 5 fb_capt_sacto 2012-10-23 18:56:19 UTC
Yes I did delete Java and reinstall it.  Then, after renaming the User file I was able to open LO.  I have not had any problems since.  I am not sure what file you want me to send to you.  I tried to attach my "old user" file but it won't attach.  Maybe too big?

Comment 7 Julien Nabet 2012-10-23 20:32:00 UTC
Great it works.
About profile, I thought about zipping ~/.config/libreoffice and upload it there:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bugzilla-Attachments
Would it be possible?
Then this bug could be a blocker for https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43489
Comment 8 fb_capt_sacto 2012-10-23 22:02:52 UTC
What file is it exactly?  I'm not sure and is it just one file or the entire "user" folder that you need?

Since we don't know where's the problem, zip all the ~/.config/libreoffice directory and attach it.

Comment 40 Julien Nabet 2012-10-24 18:58:25 UTC
I made a mistake when I said ~/.config/libreoffice since you're on Windows.

Anyway "LO directory profile" means a "directory" not a file.
So could you zip (with Winzip, 7zip, Winrar) the directory libreoffice you had renamed.
I expect a file with "zip" extension containing a directory which, itself contains several directories, etc and files obviously.
Is it more clear now?
