I get the same error as mentioned in Document could not be locked
with Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS while trying to open a csv-file with calc:

Version: 7.5.1.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 81bce3cd17f5e01886721863a4fa0d99f91033a6
CPU threads: 12; OS: Linux 5.19; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI: de-DE
Calc: threaded

It’s about files I generate with Eclipse. I’ve done this before many times and now I migrated my system from Ubuntu 20 with newer versions of Eclipse and LibreOffice. The output of getfacl is the same on my new system as before. So I concluded, that the problem is not OS- or Eclipse-related but a phenomen of LibreOffice.

Copy the document to your home folder and edit from there.

#3

the document is already in home
you are partially right: in subfolders of home the problem doesn’t occur
disc space should be sufficient

#4

No more disk space?

#5

crsnap installation? :slight_smile:

#6

i am not sure, but i think not; i just used ubuntu software

#7

AFAIK Ubuntu 22.04 installs some software as Snap packages, like Firefox and LibreOffice.

#8

Can you create a new document (eg Calc) in LibreOffice and save it in the problematic folder?

#9

No! I dont have the permissions!?
I’m able to do all things in home, but not with calc

#10

Search for the exact German error message in https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/

#11

I found no search result.
As mentioned above: the error message is the same (in german) as in my very first link. I tried to save documents with writer in home too, same result. With other programs I’m able to write files in home (not only in subfolders of home) (i.e. gedit), so I conclude that the problem is a LibreOffice-problem.
I’m aware of snap-installations, but Ubuntu software doesn’t offer this option.

#12

Finally I removed LibreOffice and reinstalled it, this time following Installation › LibreOffice › Wiki › ubuntuusers.de
My version now is:
Version: 7.5.2.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 50(Build:2)
CPU threads: 12; OS: Linux 5.19; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI: de-DE
Ubuntu package version: 4:7.5.2~rc2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~lo1
Calc: threaded

Now the problem don’t occur.
Thanks to all for help.

Cannot create lock file on ubuntu

If the package is not already installed automatically with the instructions above, I would also install:

> sudo apt-get install libreoffice-script-provider-python
