Hi Tom,

I can confirm this.

We have the same issue here at our office. Files opened from LO that are
located on our NAS or other network shares will not open properly. Local
copies of the same file do open without any trouble whatsoever.
Suggesting it is not something in the files themselves. Moreover it
happens with all files, not just specific LO files.

This is on Debian Jessie systems with different versions of LO in them.
Both native versions, installed through aptitude, and manually installed
versions. Versions vary between 4.0 and 4.3. Don't know if it already
happened before 4.0. The shares are hosted on NASses (how do you spell
this correctly?) from Synology and IOmega, but also on a Samba host. I
don't have a Windows system available, so I have not tested whether it
also happens on those shares, but I suspect it will. All in all it makes
me think the problem might be in LO itself. Not sure though.

P.S. To be honest, I have neglected til now to file a bug-report for
this. Should have done so, but somehow I never did.

Grx HdV
