In order to do this, one would want to follow the directions noting: "Adding this PPA to your system".

Can you reproduce this? If you create a new document and save it does it still crash?
Ibrahim-hammad (ibrahim-hammad) wrote : | #9 |
Dear Bryan,
Thank you.
I've just tried the same operation and all went well. I didn't face any
problem, noting that after the crash took place once I need to open any
Libreoffice document , even New document it will open a recovery window
then will open the new document. But this also had gone as well.
Thank you again, and appreciated.

ibrahim-hammad, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is manually attached. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. First, open the file:
/etc/apport/
and comment out the line:
'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package'],
Save and close. Now, execute at a terminal:
cd /var/crash && sudo rm * && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install libreoffice-dbg uno-libs3-dbg ure-dbg && sudo service apport start force_start=1
If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.
Now reproduce the crash, then open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the crash report you wish to submit.
If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/
I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently.
Thank you for your understanding.

Dear Christopher,
I hope this email finds you well.
Thank you for your professional help, and I hope I can be of more help to
this project.
I could locate the file crashdb.conf and made the instructed change,
however, the file refused to save the changes. To overcome this before
asking your help I copied the file contents and opened a new document and
paste it in there and tried to save this file on the same location but in
different file name. This had failed as well. Should this succeeded I would
rename the original file and rename the new file with the original file
name instead. But it failed.
Your help is highly required please.

HI Christopher,
I hope this email finds you well.
I've been encountering some problems and crashes lately, while when I try
to generate a report or report a bug I couldn't do it successfully , so it
is not done.
Now, I received a warning sign this morning with a message and when I try
to check for updates a get another message.
I tries before when I encountered problems to report it through the
terminal using the history commands but I got a message telling me that the
file is not found.
Please find attached a snapshot of both messages. I appreciate much you
kind help and instructions on what exactly to do (and how to do it please).
Regards,
Ibrahim Hammad

Dear Christopher,
Further to my previous email, I'd like to inform you that I had processed
"sudo apt-get update" on the terminal.
it went fine except for the end, however, the warning sign disappeared, but
the end of the terminal text shows some defects.
Moreover, the sudo apt-get upgrade resulted with nothing, and when trying
to check for updates from the upper main menu the same message appeared in
the terminal will come up again (failure).
The rest of this message I'll paste the content of the terminal text for
your kind reference.
Regards,
Ibrahim Hammad

Hello Christopher,
Thank you for usual professional support.
As far as I can remember, that I followed your instruction regarding the
libreofice crash. Your question means that I failed to do it as it should
be, then, shall I do it again?
Last weak I reported 2 issues for the spreadsheet but with no response or
feedback at all, except that I did it twice and received a message that it
is considered as a duplicate.
please advise.
Have a nice day.

Hello Christopher,
I hope this email finds you well.
Things are getting really tough and boring for me. I tried the same
instruction and receive a message the no such file or directory exists.
When I open the crash folder it is empty.
The system is not stable and the libreoffice is still crashing !
I don't want to shift back to windows and I still believe in this great
project and would do the best to contribute to its success, but please help
me process my daily work on it without shifting back.
I can imagine the loads of work you do and can imagine the pressure you are
under, but still feel happy for your success, which makes weak people like
me to add more pressure asking for your professionalism.
Please advise.
