[fixed in 2.4] openoffice2.2 freeze openning odt

[LeoPR]

I created a very very simple document (in native format, .odt) , save it, close openoffice and run again. (i do that because i will try to convert to .doc)

After that, this document freeze openoffice, eaten cpu. only killing openoffice i can use again to open others documents. All others documents open.

experiments on this document:

1) using strace i can see on openoffice some thing like "[pid 8494] read(7, 0x80bb4d4, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)" million times.

2) i can unzip file without problems, and can "see" xmls (i used this way to recover my document, without style off course)

3) broffice in portuguese or english do the same problem.

4) openoffice on linux or windows do the same problem.

very interesting thing:

5) i thing "well i will use the 'docs and spreads' from google to open my file recover it and convert it do .doc"... well docs service from google "do nothing" for 30 seconds, and after that he say "service unavailable, try in 30 seconds". but when i try other documents, they work fine and fast.

my opinion:

openoffice 2.2 generate a .odt document with some syntax bug, and save it "correct" (well, its zipped without crc fail), and this bug can't be detected by open filter interpreter.
- the first correct thing is save whithout errors.
- the second is open alerting with some message link "document corrupted".

i would like to send my file, but is my first time using this bug report service . the file have only 32k.

This appears to still be an issue with OOo 2.2.0-0ubuntu2

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Since you reported your bug a newer version of the OpenOffice.org package is available. Could you please retest with the latest version and let us know if this is still an issue? Thanks in advance.

I have reproduced this using the first file with the bug on Feisty Fawn AMD64 with openoffice.org version 2.2.0-1ubuntu3.

I can confirm this bug still exists on Ubuntu 7.10 OpenOffice 2.3.0. It appears it will be fixed in OpenOffice 2.4.0.

Thanks,
