Please attach a docx you can not open. Created attachment 82072 [details]
Sample Document
Thank you. Can not open with Writer, Calligra Words, abiword. AOO410m1(Build:9750) - Rev. 1548193 2013-12-07_04:10:48 - Rev. 1548790 Debian That's a .doc! Currently the only Software what is able to open reporter's sample document is SoftMaker FreeOffice. Also MS WORD Viewer is unable, will hang. "AOO 4.1.0-Dev – English UI / English locale - [AOO410m1(Build:9750) - Rev. 1546757 - 2013-12-02]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", own separate user profile fails to open reporter's sample with Error Message "Read-Error. This is not a WinWord97 file. Some more research required. @ SD Stone: Does any software on your PC open that document? @Edwin: If no software at all is able to open a particular document, isn't that an indication that something might be wrong with the document? Created attachment 82078 [details]
I can't open this file.

Only if Word also fails, but I'm with Linux machine with no MS Office access at the moment...
Comment on attachment 82078 [details]
I can't open this file.
Opens fine with "AOO 4.0.1 – German UI / German locale [Rev. 1524958 2013-09-20 11:40:29]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", “historic” 4.0 User Profile used for all predecessor versions
I can't see any relation to sample document of original report
Additional info:
----------------
I did some tests with original sample document.
(a) already reproducible with
* server installation of " AOO 4.0.0-Dev – English UI / German locale [AOO400m1(Build:9700) - Rev. 1457992 – Rev.1457606 ((2013-03-19))]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", own separate user profile
* server installation of OOo 3.3.0
(b) still opened fine with
* Ooo 3.1.1 German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) DE [OOO310m19 (Build 9420)]"!
* OOo 2.0.2
(c) also opens fine with LibO 4.1.3
(d) Already reproducible with Pre-3.4.0 (OOo 3.3.0), but because of crippled
Version selector (Bug 123063) no useful info can be contributed
(e) Latest confirmation for AOO 4.1.0-dev, but because of incomplete LCo
selector (Bug 123063) no correct information can be contributed.
(f) Might be related to "Bug 119304 - Documents written in OO-Writer,
Save as word 6, fail to re-open "
or "Bug 118119 - Read Error no a WinWord97 file" or similar
Some more research required
(g) Version of appearance seens to show relation to "Bug 119304 - Documents written in OO-Writer, Save as word 6, fail to re-ope" (h) Error Message also for all sample documents of "Bug 33011 - crash while loading Particular.DOC" adjusting version field due to comment #10 I can also confirm this issue in OOo 3.0.0 (hang) and OOo 3.3.0 Microsoft's Binary File Format Validator also reports that the given document does not conform *** Issue 124339 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** *** Issue 125487 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** *** Issue 127670 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** Still occurs with 4.2.0-dev |
