Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 33011
crash while loading Particular.DOC
Last modified: 2014-02-27 14:31:17 UTC
When I load AUDIO_CD.DOC or VIDEO_CD.DOC, ooffice hangs, and stops consuming CPU time. When I load SYSCDXXX.DOC, I get the message: An unrecoverable error has occurred. All modified files have been saved and can probably be recovered at program restart. I'm running gentoo-linux, and installed ooffice using the gentoo packaging system, so the bug could also be in a patch from gentoo.
Created attachment 17149 [details] bzipped tarball with 'bad' Microsoft Word files
MRU->MM: The three files in the attachment are all Word 6 documents. They seem to crash due to the same reason. All give the Assertion "Unknown ww6 sprm, dangerous, report to development".
mmaher->jmarmion: Sounds like a corrupt Word file.

sunbitter: do you know the origin of the attached 3 word6/95 docs. OOo sees the same problem in all 3 docs. They all contain 3 (unknown to OOo) SPRM (Single Property Modifiers). Later there is a conflict of what the document states is the length of the main document text stream and what length is actually contained in the document. Saving these docs back to word6/95 format in Word and the unknown SPRMs and length conflict dissappear and OOo can successfully import them. Obviously OOo should not fall over while attempting to import these docs but knowing their origin would help. thanks.
Set target to OO later, as long as these are Word6/95 documents and the fix is VERY complicated. As a workaround, these can be saved as Word97 or newer format.
Florian, please take over

(a) Trivial Crash? (b) It seems openoffice@henning-brinkmann.de is not a AOO committer, so Assignee back to list! (c) Still crashes for me with "Ooo 3.1.1 German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) DE [OOO310m19 (Build 9420)]"! (d) No longer crashes with sever installation of "OOo 3.3.0 English UI / German locale [OOO330m20 (Build 9567)]" on WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) DE. (e) Somewhere between OOo 3.1.1 to OOo 3.3.0 crash disappeared, behavior changed to "Bug 123830 - Particular.doc fails to open with Error Message" (f) Has been fixed for AOO 3.3.0, but because of crippled Target Milestone selector contents (Bug 123063) I only can select TM = 4.1.0, no correct information can be contributed. (g) Latest confirmation for AOO OOo 3.1.1, but because of incomplete LCo selector (Bug 123063) no correct information can be contributed.
Fixed due to Comment 9 (d)
Reader Error:This is not WinWord97 file AOO410m1(Build:9750) - Rev. 1570848 Rev.1570848 on windows7 Reopen
(In reply to liuping from comment #11) That error message is not exactly the same as the reported CRASH ;-) And for the error message see (e)! So I think we should close this one again.

I agree --> resolving this issue as fixed and verified. --> resetting field Target Milestone to keep this issue out of the list of 'solved issues for 4.1.0'
