[Bug 319824] Re: [jaunty] DATA LOSS: openoffice oobase reports SIGSEGV in openjdk-6 when saving a report

 

This happens every time I try to make a report, on closing the editor
window. Sometimes crashes also when trying to run a report from the
editor window, but I'm not sure it's exactly the same bug.

Overall, the report component of oobase is very prone to crashing the
whole app.

@Chris: I know, that's why I take backups :-). Having people using early
alpha of Ubuntu makes possible to fix bugs *before* they slip in LTS
versions of Ubuntu ;-).

Bug description:
See attached logfile.

Using oobase with openjdk-6 is a pain. First, CPU is almost always at 100% when editing reports. Second, opening a report in editing mode, dragging around a few fields, adding a couple of lines, saving the report, and trying to close the report editingwindow, results in a crash.

Should be considered severe, since ooo isn't always able to restore the .odb file, or restores it correctly (and then the tables have no records!!!). I would have lost almost 1100 company contacts this way, if I had not kept a Microsoft Excel (yuck!) spreadsheet with the data.
