Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 8587
Read Only Prevents Saving To Others That Are Not In Read Only
Last modified: 2003-03-13 10:14:17 UTC
When you open a document that someone else is in, you open in a read only format. But for some odd reason when I am under read only and the other person that is not under read only tries to save the document, it refuses to save (They are using MS Office) and then I must get out of the application and they have to overwrite the old file.
moving to framework and Reassign issue to owner of selected subcomponent
moving to subcomponent ui
When using the latest OO-version (644) this problem doesn´t occur anymore. The misbehaviour of the file-locking was a known problem which has been fixed. So please check, if you are able to reproduce this bug in a 644 ! If you are able to let this problem occur, please reopen the issue and give more additional infos about the type of installation (net/workstation or single-user installation), who did the installation, etc.
As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved <wontfix/duplicate/worksforme/invalid> issues. Please see this posting for details. First step in IssueZilla is unfortunately to set them to verified.
