I open http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=246439 an ODS file and edit it and save, fine. But sometimes and for no readily apparent reason it refuses to save the document with the error message: "Error saving the document
haven't saved it. But when you try to save,an error dialog comes up saying "Write Error", with no http://toddsnotes.blogspot.com/2011/03/neooffice-openoffice-saving-document.html additional information...You try changing the file name, saving to a different directory, checking disk space.. everything looks fine, but it won't save. What to do? Quit it, and have faith that the 'Recover files' dialog will bring it back?Copy your document, or at least the changes (f you can), into textedit or another program?To encounter this error saving situation is disconcerting, to say the least.After a little searching,NeoOffice bug #http://bugzilla.neooffice.org/bug.php?op=show&bugid=3293
Easy solution:from the existing document,select all and copycmd-N (or on windows: ctrl-N) to make a new window.paste -- you now have a copy of your document.Save this new one.For me, these errors happened after starting NeoOffice a few days ago (12) and then deciding to save some error saving the 'untitled' documents I had created and entered minor amounts of data/text into. They hadn't been saved previously, and had been opened for several days. The bug says this:"The key thing to do to avoid this bug is to not keep and .od* document open for more than a day or two. If you periodically save a file, close it, and reopen it, you can avoid this bug."Another note is "Update: in this instance, with Writer giving the error, I was able to Save As in ANY format EXCEPT .sxw, .stw, .odt, and .ott."Another link mentions something about tmp files, which on the mac seem to be somewhere under a path like $ set | grep /var/folderTMPDIR=/var/folders/GX/GXRi3TKjExSdAlvXgP45k++++TI/-Tmp-/some OS cleanup process could be removing files from here. I've not tried tracing the process (ptrace/strace) since I have a workaround, but it seems plausible enough.apparently this has been going onsince 2006:http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69993
