fa->cmc: can you take this? hmm, with 1.1.1 I can create a password of "I have some spac" and I can save it and reload with the same password, *but* the first couple of times I did it I had the same problem as you reported because my password was "I have some spaces" which is 18chars long, on entering the password for save OOo stopped entering characters after 16letters, while on entering the password for loading it let me type in as many as I wanted, and my 18letter "I have some spaces" on load didn't match the saved "I have some spac" that it was truncated to on the save dialog. Do you thing this is the same problem that you encountered, i.e. that the problem is either to allow longer password on save, or truncate on load to match save http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=32095 is my proposed fix for this, i.e. limit the load the same way as save, so an overly long password behaves the same on load as save This is an upstream issue. Track http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=32095 for updates. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: Openoffice.org writer has a feature for password protecting wordprocessor documents. I tried to use a long sentence with lots of spaces as my password for a document. OpenOffice writer saved the document without complaint. However, upon trying to reread the document, writer consistently said the password was incorrect. I thought maybe I had accidentally entered the same incorrect password twice when creating the document, so I saved a related document with the same password twice more. Each time, writer failed to open the document, saying the password was incorrect. I then tried saving the same document again using a 9 character, strictly-alpha password. This time, writer was able to open the document. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.1.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Pick a sentence to use as a long password, with lots of spaces 2. Save an openoffice.org writer document with this password 3. Exit writer and try to reload the document. Actual Results: I get an error saying I have entered the wrong password. Expected Results: writer should have opened the document and allowed me to read the text and make changes. Additional info:
