Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 34420
Impress crashes when loading *.sxi
Last modified: 2004-11-03 11:39:02 UTC
The attached file crashes Impress on the above system. The screen flickers in a never ending refresh as soon as the file opens. I wasn't able to access any menu options or edit anything after this occurred. I'm only able to xkill Impress. This occurs consistently with OOo 1.1.0 and 1.1.2. The odd thing is, I was able to salvage the file with a text editor. 1] Made a blank presentation with Impress, called "test". 2] Unzipped the non-working presentation and the test presentation to separate directories. 3] Edited the "content.xml" files of both presentations and copied the entire <office:body/> tag from the non-working presentation to the test presentation. 4] Zipped the test presentation back up. Bingo, it works. The bad tags must be in the content.xml file, but outside the <office:body/> tag. Enjoy.

Reassigned to Christian.
Created attachment 17966 [details] The same file but in the Normal view.
I saved the file in the normal view. Please tell me if you could load the 'normal' file.
The "normal" view file opens successfully in OOo 1.1.2 on Win2K and Linux RH7.2.
The same happens here with (German) OOo-1.1.3 and SuSE 9.1. But it does not happen with OOo-1.9.54. Could someone else confirm this ? And how should such an issue be handled ?
