Problem with LO 5.3

users
#1

Hi. I was using LO 5.2 till 2 days ago and I think I am going to downgrade to 5.2.

Problem is: I have a sheet which download every 5 minutes stock market data (prices) from internet in html format. Data are inserted in cells and used for simple calculations. Since I updated to LO 5.3, the software downloads just two lines in about 70 (and sometimes writes: unable to connect) and leaves the cells empty. The sheet worked fine in LO 5.2 for more than one year... I tried to insert manually again the links: first insertion works fine, but when it tries to update, cells remain empty. Boh!

In case I can send a copy of the sheet to try.

I downgraded to LO5.2, but the calc file had lost links to intwernet pages (LO 5.3 hasn't written data in the cells and the data could not be downloaded thereafter). I rebuildt the calc sheet and links using LO 5.2 and everythings works again now.

I saw your bug report. I did a quick test and also was unable to get
"Sheet > Like to External Data" working correctly in 5.4.0.0 alpha. I will
check more carefully against 5.3 this weekend and comment on your bug
report.

Hi. Thank you for testing. I uploaded a working file (copia 1) on the bug report, you can use that for test. Paolo

Paolo, you can add your email address to the bug CC list (top right of bug
report) and you will get an email whenever someone makes a comment on the
bug. That makes it easy to follow the bug and give additional data or
testing as needed. BH
