[Bug 54392] New: HSSFWorkbook initialization fail, with RuntimeException during creation of HSSFSheet, caused by an unknown excel format

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54392

            Bug ID: 54392
           Summary: HSSFWorkbook initialization fail, with
                    RuntimeException during creation of HSSFSheet, caused
                    by an unknown excel format
           Product: POI
           Version: 3.9
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HSSF
          Assignee: dev@poi.apache.org
          Reporter: steveoreo@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified

java version "1.6.0_31"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_31-b05)
poi version: poi-3.9-20121203.jar
platform: windows xp 


------------ source to reproduce is very simple:
String s = "excelfile.xls";
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);
workbook = new HSSFWorkbook (fis);

and then it would trigger this. 
it would be nice if it can be fixed. or at least with an extra constructor
boolean to disable this check & throw. 

                    // Some tools (like Perl module Spreadsheet::WriteExcel -
bug 41187) skip the RowRecords
                    // Excel, OpenOffice.org and GoogleDocs are all OK with
this, so POI should be too.
                    if (rowRecordsAlreadyPresent) {
                        // if at least one row record is present, all should be
present.
                        throw new RuntimeException("Unexpected missing row when
some rows already present");
                    }

Since I am very eager to use poi for this excel file, I disabled this throw
statement and the rest of the parising can run perfectly fine. 


------------ Exception:
Error initializing Excel File:Unexpected missing row when some rows already
present
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected missing row when some rows already
present

I've just tried the attached file with 3.10 Final, and it opens without error

The file is coming from internet web site. 
I grep it and try to use poi to parse. 
I attached in the bugzilla for your reference (sorry I missed it before). 
thanks for your prompt response!

Where did the problematic file come from? If you try opening the file in excel
and doing a save-as, does that fix it?
