Hi people,

what the hell have you made with version 4.0.1????

Brief explanation. YESTERDAY I prepared a quite complex spreadsheet with calc,
all perfect. Several nice calculations and charts.

TODAY: I downloaded and installed 4.0.1 as suggested by the update wizard.

I open up my spreadsheets, and .... SURPRISE SURPRISE: every single cell with a
formula contains now a nice label "err:509". Of course nothing was changed
during the night! Formulas are still there. You can also try starting a blank
workshit, place a two in cell A1, place a four in cell B1 and then place a
"=A1+B1" in cell C1 and you get a nice err:509! Congratulations!

Oh my Goodness! I am desperate!

I will try to fetch and reinstall 4.0.0 if still available.

Please test the software before releasing!

Reproducible with "AOO 4.0.1 RC3  – German UI / German locale  [Rev. 1524958
2013-09-20 11:40:29]" on  German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", “historic”  4.0 
User Profile used for all  predecessor versions

Not a valid bug report!

@spreafab:
Thank you for your feedback – unfortunately important information we will 
need to reproduce your problem is missing (see 
<http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/QA/HowToFileIssue>)
Please add all information requested in following:
b) Attach a sample document 
d) Attach screenshots with comments if you believe that that might explain the 
  problem better than a text comment. Best way is to insert your screenshots
  into a DRAW document and to add comments that explain what you want to show
f) add information 
  f3) concerning your PC (video card, ...)
  f4) concerning your Operating System (Version, Language)
  f5) concerning your AOO version (with Build/revision ID if it's not a 
     public release) and localization (UI language, Locale setting)
  f6) AOO settings that might be related to your problems 
     (video hardware acceleration)
  f7) how you launch AOO and how you opened the sample document
  f8) Whether your problem persists when you renamed your user profile 
     (Quit Quickstart before!) before you launch AOO (please see
    
<http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/3.4.1.html#AOO3.4.1ReleaseNotes-KnownIssues>)


Even if you can not provide all demanded information, every little new
information might bring the breakthrough.

Thank you for your assistance.

Effectively, deleting all the profiles (actually, uninstalling 4.0.1, deleting
all the AppData Directories belonging to OpenOffice, cleaning up the register
for all the OpenOffice keys with CCleaner) and re-installing 4.0.0 (fortunately
I still had the downloaded installer) took me back to the previous condition:
all my calc files are now perfect, I have my charts and I have not completely
lost all my job (actually at least two hours for this problem).

I am very sorry, and you can consider mine an "invalid bug report". I told you
how I solved my problem (and I am very sorry, I cannot make all the things you
would want to have this being a "valid" report). You can just skip to consider
it, but be warned that 4.0.1. can make weird things at least on some
installations. Be prepared to other complaints, I fear.

Best regards

FS

@spreafab:
"Valid" simply means that info required to reproduce the problem is available.

For now let's hope that you were the victim of a unique bad luck particular
circumstances, whatever - bad things happen. But of curse it might be that
there is a real OOo bug. If you have time and nerves (and the security of
successfull fallback to 4.0.0 it would be great if you could do a second
attempt after you checked your installation file with md5 checksum and so on
...

If there is any small chance to get the problem reproducible for a developer,
of course we will follow up your report - especially if we get similar reports.

I will leave the "needinfo" keyword for bureaucratic reasons.
