[SOLVED-temporarily] OOo crash... anyone seeing this?

jerry@sonyvgnfw140e:~$ openoffice.org
jerry@sonyvgnfw140e:~$ X-Error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)

It looks like a Qt bug. Many kinds of apps report this problem before they crash.

~$ openoffice.org
~$ QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory
QFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: /home/arkanthos/.config/ibus/bus
Bus::open: Can not get ibus-daemon's address. 
IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon 
^C

That's the only error message I got but everything worked fine and I didn't lose the saved file.

Re: OOo crash... anyone seeing this?

There is a three year old bug in launchpad which is similar, but there are no responses to it.

I CAN run OOo as root and it works fine.

I'm thinking it is either a permission problem or a video driver problem. Back to the lab for more tinkering.

EDIT:
I found this bug, which suggested removing openoffice.org-kde. It kills integration with KDE but I can run OOo.

Not sure if this is a KDE or an OOo issue. Bug'm both?

Some people resolved it by "It works when I compile qt with graphics system native as default.". I consider that solution unacceptable for the average user.

Never had this bug, and I have openoffice.org-kde installed.

Kubuntu 10.4 with KDE 4.5.1?

Re: [SOLVED-temporarily] OOo crash... anyone seeing this?

I've actually removed that due to other issues it created for me while using OOo. I've done the same for FF. It seems those KDE integration packages aren't quite up to speed yet.

Kubuntu 10.04.1
KDE 4.5.1
OpenOffice.org 3.2.1
OOO320m19 (Build:9505)
ooo-build 3.2.1.4, Ubuntu package 1:3.2.1-6ubuntu2~10.04.1

Absolutely no problems.

Why are you using openoffice.org from the CLI? The application is launched using ooffice.

Re: [SOLVED-temporarily] OOo crash... anyone seeing this?

Because it wasn't launching from the installed Menu option, and it wouldn't start in a konsole using /usr/bin/soffice.

I reinstalled openoffice.org-kde and ran soffice just now:

jerry@sonyvgnfw140e:~$ locate bin/soff
/usr/bin/soffice
jerry@sonyvgnfw140e:~$ soffice
jerry@sonyvgnfw140e:~$ X-Error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
Major opcode: 62 (X_CopyArea)
Resource ID: 0x0
Serial No: 501 (501)
These errors are reported asynchronously,

From the menu you get nothing. No message, no indication of problems, and no OOo dialog. The konsole shows you what the problem is. Googling the problem, which turns out to be quite common, the fix is to remove openoffice.org-kde and do without the kde integration.

It used to work for me, but apparently a package I have installed has interfered with the integration. I suspect that it is the library package "kdelibs5-dev" (which supplies /usr/include/klocalizedstring.h) I had to install to get wicd-client-kde to compile.

Kubuntu 10.04.1
KDE 4.5.1
OpenOffice.org 3.2.1

Re: [SOLVED-temporarily] OOo crash... anyone seeing this?

Here, soffice from the CLI:

paul@mybrainonlinux:~$ soffice
javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!
Please ensure that a JVM and the package openoffice.org-java-common
is installed.
If it is already installed then try removing ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml
paul@mybrainonlinux:~$

But again, why are you using soffice from the CLI and not ooffice?

ooffice from the CLI:

paul@mybrainonlinux:~$ ooffice
javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!
Please ensure that a JVM and the package openoffice.org-java-common
is installed.
If it is already installed then try removing ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml
paul@mybrainonlinux:~$

Works here.

Re: [SOLVED-temporarily] OOo crash... anyone seeing this?

Same reason.

WithOUT openoffice.org-kde, when I run

jerry@sonyvgnfw140e:~$ ooffice

OpenOffice runs just fine.

When I install openoffice.org-kde and run ooffice I get:

jerry@sonyvgnfw140e:~$ ooffice
jerry@sonyvgnfw140e:~$ X-Error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
Major opcode: 62 (X_CopyArea)
Resource ID: 0x0
Serial No: 501 (501)

jerry@sonyvgnfw140e:~$

I don't want to remove kdelibs5-dev because I am using wicd-client-kde and want to keep using it. I don't need OOo integration with KDE (as far as I know), but things will sort themselves out because this is an oft repeated regression and the wicd/KDE/OOo folks will get things sorted out sooner or later.
