Still happens on Linux w/ OOo 2.1 and OOO 2.2rc3.

Happens even more easily on OOo 3.0.1 Linux (Fedora 10, i686, 32-bit)

This continues to happen in openoffice.org-core-3.1.1-19.2.fc11.x86_64.

Adding "time.sleep(3)" after a "desktop.terminate()" seems to reduce the
frequency of the crash.

My problem is similar but it happens randomly at various steps.
I am using headless package, and starting the oo service via a command line. 
I'm using python uno to interface with oo. For some reason if the service is
started via script, it is more prone to connection closure. If I start the
service as user, the connection closure doesn't happen as often, but I was not
able to prove it with any success. 

This error means something happen on the OO side and connection got
disconnected? If yes, it would be interesting to know what it was, so that we
can prevent it. 

Any idea how to debug this so that we can get more information on the problem?

Thanks,
Lucas

@lszyba1:  Your <#desc7> is rather off-topic in this issue.  If you want to
discuss it further, please switch to a mailing list like dev@udk.openoffice.org.
 In short, DisposedException from a remote bridge often means that the remote
process crashed; you would need to attach a debugger to soffice.bin to find out
more.

I have an Impress 3.2 ODF file with the following Python script:

import os 
import sys 
import unohelper 
from com.sun.star.beans import PropertyValue 

def OnOpen(event): 
    document = XSCRIPTCONTEXT.getDocument() 
    file_props = PropertyValue('FilterName', 0, 'MS PowerPoint 97', 0) 
    target_path = '/tmp/test.ppt' 
    target_url = unohelper.systemPathToFileUrl(target_path) 
    document.storeToURL(target_url, (file_props,)) 
    print 'Created ' + target_path 
    document.setModified(False) 
    print 'Terminating OOo' 
    XSCRIPTCONTEXT.getDesktop().terminate() # <----- Causes a crash
    print 'Terminated OOo' 


The OnOpen function is associated with the "Document open" event. I run a command like "soffice.bin 
test.odf" expecting to end up with a test.ppt. The test.ppt file does get created (as can be seen by the 
output) but the OOo process crashes. The seg fault information while running under GDB is shown below.  
I tried a few variations like calling "document.dispose()" first, but nothing has worked so far. Is there any 
other way to close OOo from PyUno?
