Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 9957
Selection of new symbol icon in toolbar crashs writer application
Last modified: 2004-05-19 22:30:32 UTC
while assigning a new symbol of the main toolbar in the writer or calc application the application crashs reproduceable with an "application error" :( The crash happens whenever one chooses a new symbol with the symbol browser. I tested this reproduceable on two different WinME machines. Benjamin Lear

unsinstall completly OOo and reinstall it. try the current developper build (643C). I can'at reproduce this at all.
I use a Win98 machine and can reproduce this error with the current stable release.
Same problem occures here on Win98SE, both on OO 1.0.2 and 1.0.3. Anytime you want to customize your symbol-bars and you try select a new symbol (added before in \share\config\symbol\) or browse in the existing symbols to the end of the list, OO crashes, doesn't matter in which application. Solution urgent needed.
I tried today with 1.0.3 (german version) and WIN98SE. 1. open new writer-document 2. right mouseclick on freee space on toolbar 3. select "visible Icon" (or so, I do not know exact translation for english version) 4. click "ZoomE expected: Writer will crash ;-) actual: zoom-Icon was added as hope Might be that that problem only happens if the list contains self-created Icons?
I confirm. I have the same problem on my W98 machine with OO 1.0.3.1 I don't even need to choose an icon to get an "Application Error". I just go and browse the different icons and then it crashes. However, this bug is kinda weird as I cannot tell exactly how to reproduce it from one installation to another. The only thing I know is that it crashes often when trying to reassign a new icon to a button. I don't have self created icons. Looks like W98 is involved in this behaviour, isn't it ?
Looks like lots of people have confirmed it's a crash in 1.0.3. Can those people try it in 1.1beta2 and verify whether that fixes it? I certainly can't reproduce this in 1.1beta2.
No reporter-activity for months I think we should close that issue, seems to be solved in 1.1. If someone still sees the problem, the issue can be reopened If I will not see any further action as votes, attachments or confirmations, I will have to close this issue 2003-10-31 as WFM. Rainer
OK, I think it is old version and no activity for long time. if you still have same problem with 1.1 please reopen it
