Installation of extension "multipages" crashes OOo
Last modified: 2008-05-02 12:05:20 UTC
I checked with "3.0.0 Beta Multilingual version English UI WIN XP: [Dev-300m7 (Build9293)]" and saw that OOo will crash when I try to install tool "Multipages". Steps to reproduce: 1. Go to <http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=87718> 2. Select "Multipages" 3. download Version 1.1de "MultiPages1.1_de.zip" and extract the zip file (due to installation instructions) 4. Start OOo 3.0 (with a WRITER document) 5. Menu 'Tools -> Extension Manager -> My extensions <Add> 6. search for "MultiPages.zip" from extracted "MultiPages1.1_de.zip" and select it for installation expected: extension should be installed actual: avter a shor moment (5mm progress bar) installation will be terminated with message box "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library - Runtime Error! Program: C:\OOo-dev 3.0\program\soffice.bin This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the applications support ... Installation of SVG import ("svg-import-1.2.2.oxt") worked fine

More specific summary
I was not able to reproduce that problem on an other PC with a fresh installation of "3.0.0 Beta Multilingual version German UI WIN XP: [Dev-300m7 (Build9293)]" (no earlier 3.0 versions have been installed) and was NOT able to reproduce the crash, installation worked fine. On the other PC I used for my first test also installation of "multipages_en" causes a crash.
Still a problem with "3.0.0 Beta Multilingual version English UI WIN XP: [Dev-300m9 (Build9295)]". I Uninstalled m7 and deleted all 3.0 files from my "Programme" an my "Anwendungsdaten" folder.
This issue is most likely a dupe to issue 88344 - and a whole bunch of others. It should be fixed in a DOV300m9.
Definitively not fixed (for me) with m9, I will check next one
If you say it's not good in m9 then i'll have a thorough look now.
Confirmed on Windows XP. This is probably caused by the C++ runtime library for the compiler the extension was built with, which is not included in the extension. Developers usually have the C++ libs on their system (it comes with the compiler), others don't have it. Forwarding issue.
Just a note: The affected program is soffice.bin, not unopkg and there is a crash after the warning message has been issued. Whatever happens, we should not crash.
@rainerbielefeld: The bad design of the sourceforge site does not allow me to download the extension. Please make it available (best by attaching it to this issue, if rights permit).
Created attachment 53104 [details] Extension as requested, for Inst unpack and install "MultiPages.zip" with extension manager!
jsk: "This is probably caused by the C++ runtime library for the compiler the extension was built with, which is not included in the extension." The MultiPages.zip extension contained in the attached Multipages1.1_en.zip does not contain any (C++) DLLs, just .xba, .xcu etc.
most probably a duplicate of issue 88671 *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 88671 ***
