Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 9020
'Application Error' when using Writer and a PostgreSQL data source
Last modified: 2006-05-31 14:29:06 UTC
I got a crash while using OpenOffice Writer with PostgreSQL 7.2.2 through unixODBC 2.2.2. I don't know if this is important, but in a previous session of Open Office, I changed the memory usage preferences (graphical mem : for OpenOffice 16MB for each object 4MB cache memory for inserted objects: 32 objects). What I made in the faulty session: 1/ open OpenOffice Writer (nice == -9) 2/ open a Microsoft Word 97 document 3/ convert it to the OpenOffice Writer 1.0 format 4/ display the database sources 5/ visualize some tables 6/ open the table editor for a new table I wanted to create (right click on the table node of the data sources explorer) I didn't had the time to see the table editor since OpenOffice crashed with the following error message on the console: 'Application Error' My database was not crashed. The following log was registered: DEBUG: database system was shut down at 2002-11-06 15:24:29 CET DEBUG: checkpoint record is at 0/391220 DEBUG: redo record is at 0/391220; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE DEBUG: next transaction id: 2227; next oid: 16660 DEBUG: database system is ready DEBUG: pq_recvbuf: unexpected EOF on client connection I didn't achieved to reproduce this bug.
Sophia, thanks for this extensive report. If I got this right, then in general, you _are_ able to open the table editor (because you describe a crash after saving the table in issue 8971), but when preceded by the steps you describe here, opening the editor crashes? Right? (Sorry for asking back, just want to be sure :) Does the bug depend on step 5? Does it depend on the concrete document in 2 (or does it perhaps happen with a simple empty W97 document, too)?
Yes, the difference with the other bug is that I didn't achieved to open the editor for a new table (crashed just after clicking on the opening command) and that I can't reproduce this bug. Because I can't reproduce it with the sames conditions (steps, same document), I can't determine which parameter interfers. For this bug, I was really using Writer. In the other bug, Writer was just a way to access the database. I forgot to say (because I'm not sure of the message) that a dialog box catched the crash and said my working documents would be recovered when restarting Writer.
Ocke, can you please have a look at this? Maybe it's similar to issue 8971 which you fixed? Thanks.
now really setting the owner ...
