Package: openoffice.org-common Version: 1:3.1.1-1~bpo50+1 Followup-For: Bug #540428
Hi, doing some more tests, I found out some more things: 1. if OpenOffice is already running, the problem doesn't appear, in none of my further tests. 2. Doing some strace on soffice, I pinned point the problem to soffice.bin, and the following actions: $ strace -v /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin -no-oosplash -writer 'test.odt' [...] open("/usr/lib/openoffice/program/../basis-link/program/libpackage2.so", O_RDONLY) = 22 read(22, "\177ELF\1\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0\3\0\1\0\0\0\300\257\0\0004\0\0\0\224"..., 512) = 512 fstat64(22, {st_dev=makedev(8, 7), st_ino=872412, st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_nlink=1, st_uid=0, st_gid=0, st_blksize=4096, st_blocks=720, st_size=360988, st_atime=2009/09/19-10:39:45, st_mtime=2009/09/06-10:04:05, st_ctime=2009/09/19-10:15:04}) = 0 mmap2(NULL, 359904, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_DENYWRITE, 22, 0) = 0xb3154000 mmap2(0xb31a9000, 12288, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED|MAP_DENYWRITE, 22, 0x55) = 0xb31a9000 close(22) = 0 write(2, "terminate called after throwing a"..., 48terminate called after throwing an instance of ') = 48 write(2, "com::sun::star::uno::RuntimeExcep"..., 37com::sun::star::uno::RuntimeException) = 37 write(2, "'\n"..., 2' ) = 2 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [ABRT], NULL, 8) = 0 tgkill(11285, 11285, SIGABRT) = 0 --- SIGABRT (Aborted) @ 0 (0) --- exit_group(78) = ? The interesting thing is that a direct call of $ strace -v /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin 'test.odt' also leads to the same (faulty) behavior (with or without strace). Then I looked into /usr/bin/soffice (script!) and found out that it calls different binaries dependent on the -no-oosplash option: - with -no-oosplash it calls /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin - without it, it calls /usr/lib/openoffice/program/oosplash.bin And in deed: $ /usr/lib/openoffice/program/oosplash.bin test.odt <works!> $ /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin test.odt terminate called after throwing an instance of 'com::sun::star::uno::RuntimeException' I tried then to compare the strace outputs of: a. oosplash.bin b. soffice.bin while another instance of Oo already runs c. soffice.bin without other instance but I must honestly say that I reached the limits of my knowledge. It looks different is all I can say ;-) Hope this helps, Eric -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-bpo.1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages openoffice.org-common depends on: ii openoffice.org-style-g 1:3.1.1-1~bpo50+1 full-featured office productivity Versions of packages openoffice.org-common recommends: ii openoffice.org-style-c 1:3.1.1-1~bpo50+1 full-featured office productivity ii openoffice.org-style-o 1:3.1.1-1~bpo50+1 full-featured office productivity ii openoffice.org-style-t 1:3.1.1-1~bpo50+1 full-featured office productivity ii xfonts-mathml 2 Type1 Symbol font for MathML Versions of packages openoffice.org-common suggests: pn openoffice.org-style-hicontra <none> (no description available) pn openoffice.org-style-industri <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
