             Bug #: 48955
           Summary: "Error reading file" message when opening Writer
                    document with Base forms without Base installed
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.5.2 Release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Libreoffice
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Created attachment 60376
  --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=60376
Read Error. Error reading file.

I downloaded the following document:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/images/0/05/0215WG3-UsingFormsInWriter.odt
(md5sum 1d197f6942b03cc8cc5620c27b11f071) and tried to open it. But I got "Read
Error. Error reading file." instead of a file, and Writer terminates.

Digging into the problem, I found that it is because I have no Base installed.
But in this case, the error message should look like "This document uses Base
Forms inside. Install Base before opening it." Or it should be just a warning
message, giving me this document without Forms.
