Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 61125
Windows 2003 opens documents in wrong session
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:34:31 UTC
I use Windows Server 2003. When I open two simultaneous sessions using the same login (console + remote desktop) and open any OpenOffice document from Windows Explorer, the document often opens in the other session.
TM->JSK: Please have a look, thanks !
I just tried this and was not able to reproduce. But instead i found stuff like issue #64493. This is a Win2003 Server R3 for i386. mgulcz, does this still happen to you?
After discussing this with a developer for this component i've come to the conclusion that we do not at all support this configuration. Starting the application as the same user can - depending on your configuration - cause trouble as both instances share the same set of configuration files. I'm setting this to be a feature that we might want to support sometime in the future.
I can confirm this behaviour on my Win2003 machine. Actually there are only two applications that have this bug: OO and primoPDF. Having two sessions with the same user makes sense when it is not possible to grab the console.
To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on my owner to the owner "requirements".
