[Issue 126768] New: odt files written by Libreoffice 4.2.8.2 will not open in OOWriter 4.1.2

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126768

          Issue ID: 126768
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: odt files written by Libreoffice 4.2.8.2 will not open
                    in OOWriter 4.1.2
           Product: Writer
           Version: 4.1.2
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux 64-bit
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P5 (lowest)
         Component: open-import
          Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
          Reporter: kellnerp@earthlink.net

Created attachment 85237
  --> https://bz.apache.org/ooo/attachment.cgi?id=85237&action=edit
OpenOffice Document opened with LibreOffice Writer and saved as a LibreOffice
odt file.

Copied existing OO4.1.1 based file and opened in LibreOffice/4.2.8.2$Linux_x86
LibreOffice_project/420m0$Build-2. After saving OO4.1.2 would not open the
file.

Attempting to open odt files written or touched by LibreOffice produce the
following message and will not open in Writer:

Read-Error
Error Reading file

The odt file can be opened and read by an archive manager 

This is a severe issue as there is no way to differentiate files written by
Libreoffice and those written by OO so it is possible to for a user using
LibreOffice to corrupt and make unusable files written by even though the files
are of an apparently identical type.

I can still confirm this error in AOO 4.1.9 on Windows 10.

I have added a link to LibreOffice bug number 96882 in the see-also.

That bug is RESOLVED NOTOURBUG, but it can of course be reopened if
LibreOffice is doing something wrong or unhelpful.

--- Comment #3 from Kay <ks...@apache.org> ---
Add me,

--- Comment #4 from orcmid <or...@apache.org> ---
This case is added to Issue 126846 because the document is unusable.  It is not
exactly a case of loss as the result of saving from Apache OpenOffice, but the
Read Error situation might tell us something.

--- Comment #6 from Arrigo Marchiori <ar...@yahoo.it> ---
After further investigation, the problems were found to be the <svg:title> and
<svg:desc> tags inside content.xml, tag <draw:frame draw:style-name="fr2"
draw:name="graphics6" text:anchor-type="page" text:anchor-page-number="2"
svg:x="2.5693in" svg:y="1.8091in" svg:width="1.378in" svg:height="1.378in"
draw:z-index="1">

After removing those <svg:xxx> element AOO is able to open the document.

Now it is time to understand:

 - is this a known issue?
 - is this due to XML data out of specifications?

The elements <svg:title> and <svg:desc> are valid ODF 1.2. Use of this elements
is recommended for accessibility. Not opening the file or crash is clearly a
bug in AOO.

While your PR may be valid (I didn't test), how should a change in an export
filter fix an issue with opening files?

--- Comment #5 from Arrigo Marchiori <ar...@yahoo.it> ---
I tried to reproduce the issue with a debug build of the current trunk

The problem is in SwXFrame::setPropertyValue(), called with property name
"Title".
An exception is thrown at the last line of the method
(see file main/sw/source/core/unocore/unoframe.cxx around line 1936).

Why it is impossible to set the "title" on a SwXFrame is unfortunately beyond
my understanding. I hope this information helps anyway.

             Status|UNCONFIRMED                 |CONFIRMED

--- Comment #1 from orcmid <or...@apache.org> ---
I confirm that the 174 kb file does not open with AOO 4.1.2.  

It does open with LibreOffice 5.0.0.

It also opens with Microsoft Office 2016 Word.

I do not confirm this to be a general error.  It remains to determine what is
unusual about this file that is treated as an error by AOO 4.1.2.

ADDITIONAL TESTING

With the supplied file opened in Microsoft Office 2016 Word, I enabled editing
and saved the document, without any actual edits, as a different *.odt file. 
That 91kb file **crashes** AOO 4.1.2 and opens successfully in LibreOffice
5.0.0.

CONFIRMATION

With causes yet to be identified, there are apparently interoperable
interchange problems with ODF files that appear to be valid and that cause AOO
to fail to accept the document or even crash.  It is confirmed that whatever
the case, two other implementations of ODF can accept the document correctly.
