Description Horst H. von Brand 2008-12-21 22:30:01 UTC
Description of problem:
I have a spreadcheet with a print range (with custom header). When I try to export to PDF, oocalc hangs. Trying to print to a file says there is no print range defined. Editing the print range shows it ust fine, after that printing works.

openoffice.org-calc-3.0.1-14.1.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
TRied several times with the same file, same results.

Comment 1 Caolan McNamara 2008-12-21 23:06:01 UTC
going to need an example

Comment 2 Horst H. von Brand 2008-12-22 17:58:05 UTC
Sent an example (sorry, confidential data) directly to Caolan.

Comment 3 Horst H. von Brand 2008-12-26 15:37:05 UTC
Still the same with openoffice.org-calc-3.0.1-14.2.fc11.x86_64

Comment 4 Caolan McNamara 2008-12-29 23:26:21 UTC
Nah, I don't get this problem. Is there any additional step I have to take above loading the .ods and using "export as pdf" and just whacking ok at every step ?

Comment 5 Horst H. von Brand 2008-12-30 00:49:21 UTC
OK, I did:

  cd where/the/file/lives
     # Here there is a file.pdf (previously exported)
  oocalc file.ods
     <click on the "Export as PDF" button>

  Hang!

Also:

   cd /tmp
     # Here there also is a file.pdf
   oocalc where/the/file/lives/file.ods
     <click on the "Export as PDF" button>

  Hang!

In any case, after moving file.pdf out of the way, it hangs just the same. This is not the problem.

Moved ~/.openoffice.org out of the way, same result.

I'm stumped.

Comment 6 Caolan McNamara 2009-01-05 11:04:47 UTC
I bet this is the same problem as afflicts a lot of usages of gtk dialogs in OOo at the moment, i.e. bug 477174

to test that theory, get it to hang for you. get the pid of the process, e.g. ps auxw|grep openoffice

gdb
(gdb) attach thepid
(gdb) bt

and post the output of the backtrace here. I'm guessing we'll see XIfEvent and gdk_x11_get_server_time in there

Comment 7 Horst H. von Brand 2009-01-05 13:22:11 UTC
Created attachment 328194 [details]
Backtrace from hung oocalc

Did as told in #6. Yes, at frames 5 and 6 there are XIfEvent and gdk_x11_get_server_time. Should this be closed as a duplicate of 477174?

Comment 8 Caolan McNamara 2009-01-05 13:43:00 UTC
Yeah, another manifestation of that problem.
