Title:
Opening file from Samba share results in Document in Use
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
This bug is related to bug # 1430531.
I am running Lubuntu version 20.04 with all updates installed
The Libre Office version :
Version: 6.4.2.2
Build ID: 1:6.4.2-0ubuntu3
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: qt5;
Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded
1. connect to share on local network with PCManFM-Qt File Manager
2. click on file TEST_Samba.odt
3. The Libre Office splash/Logo screen appears for a split second and the
nothing happens and the file is not opened.
4. I then right-click on file and select "open with Libre Office Writer
5. Document in Use" window appears with text:
Document file 'TEST_Samba.odt' is locked for editing by:
Unknown User
Open document read-only or open a copy of the document for editing.
Open Read-Only Open Copy Cancel
Screen shot attached..
Expected results:
The "TEST_Samba.odt" files is opened in read-write mode, user can edit it.
Actual results:
User can't edit original document (see 3-5 above)
I have tested this on several boxes running Lubuntu 20.04 with the exact same
results.
I have also tested this on SparkyLinux LxQT version 5.11 with the same
results.
Ubuntu Gnome as well as MS Windows/Office have no problems opening/editing
and/or saving this file back to the Samba share.
Global Samba config is "default"
Usershare config is:
$ cat /var/lib/samba/usershares/sameign2
#VERSION 2
path=/home/kbeins/Sameign2
