[Bug 841434] Re: Libreoffice writer marks all saved documents as in need of recovery for no apparent reason

 

Yotam Benshalom, one thing that can cause a file corruption on ext4
systems is a hard shutdown (pushing in power and holding until pc shuts
down or power disruption). However, if you have a crash file from a
prior known event, LO may not populate a new crash file or overwrite the
prior one. Could you please delete the crash file in /var/crash from
several days ago, reproduce the problem, and see if a new crash file is
populated? If a new crash file is created please report a new bug as
described in comment #3. If not, feel free to mark this back to New.

Title:
  Libreoffice writer marks all saved documents as in need of recovery
  for no apparent reason

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Whn Java is enabled, I get frequent random ocassions of libreoffice
  .odt documents which are registered as corrupted and have to be
  restored each time I open writer again. I have no idea how to repair
  the infected documents. I attach one of the last casualties, my PhD
  dissertation. This seems to me like a very major bug.

  Please let me know what extra data I can send in order to solve this.
