            Bug ID: 97580
           Summary: Working with network files when network goes out
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

I am having a problem with how LibreOffice handles editing files over a network
connection. The remote computer is either Fedora 23 or CentOS 7.1 server
mounted remotely via NFS (also tested with SSH with sshfs), the client computer
is either Fedora 23 or CentOS 7.1.

LibreOffice 5.0.4.2

When the network goes down while editing a file in LibreOffice, LibreOffice on
the local computer locks up. In fact, sometimes the only way to recover is to
hard reboot the local computer.

I've compiled the simplest test case I could to demonstrate. You will need 2
computers, one to act as an NFS server, and one to act as a client.

I've tried this on various versions and combinations of Fedora and CentOS, all
with the same result.

=========================================
On the server (as root user): 
dnf install system-config-nfs nfs-utils
vi /etc/exports   
   add "/home/WHOMEVER 192.168.10.0/24(rw,sync)"
exportfs -a
(you may need to allow access to nfs on your firewall, I used "sudo
firewall-config")
service rpcbind start
service nfs-server start

=========================================
On the client laptop (as WHOMEVER user): 
mkdir nfstest
sudo mount -t nfs SERVER:/home/WHOMEVER nfstest/

Now start LibreOffice on the client laptop, and open a document (or create and
save) using this "nfstest" remote NFS directory.

Now, simply turn off wifi on the laptop (or enter airplane mode). LibreOffice
will be locked up hard, and often the entire laptop will be locked up and
require a hard reboot to recover.
