Description mr_than 2004-12-13 06:37:09 UTC 
I have several word docs which cause the same error when I attempt to export
them as PDF (either manually from the GUI or programmatically via Java UNO). In
either case an exception occurs and and error appears in OpenOffice : "Write
error. The file could not be written". There's plenty of free disk space and the
user running it has administrative privilages.

However, it seems the PDF file is actually created properly, even though the
error is thrown. The source file is then locked and isn't released until the
soffice.exe process is killed when running through the UNO bridge. OOo 1.1.3 and
1.1.4 RC1 both proces the files without error or problems (aside from recognised
spacing compatibility issues).

The exception raised from teh UNO bridge is as follows:

Comment 5 h.ilter 2004-12-13 11:18:45 UTC 
HI->PL: Occurs also with 680m65_8850.
Comment 6 philipp.lohmann 2004-12-13 11:53:14 UTC 
This rather seems to be a problem with either framework or filters ? Does it
occur with other export types, too ? At least the PDF export code in VCL does
not throw any exceptions, especially no API exceptions (IOException in this case ?)
Comment 7 mr_than 2004-12-14 06:22:02 UTC 
Yes, it occurs when exporting to xhtml in m62 as well. Same error - file is
fully written and complete but error ("Write error. The file could not be written").

It saves as a sxw with no error - just the exporting is causing the error.
Comment 8 henrikjust 2004-12-15 10:06:15 UTC 
This problem seems to occur under these circumstances
* For any document containing OLE objects
* For any filter called by File-Export (pdf, xhtml, and other filters - see eg. 
issue 24813)
Comment 9 henrikjust 2004-12-21 12:34:53 UTC 
I cannot reproduce this issue with SRC680 m65, seems to be fixed.

If it's still not fixed, it's worth a 2.0 target. Will investigate it later.
