Hi there,after switching to MacOS X Catalina (10.15) LibreOffice crashed after a while. I can open, edit and even save documents when I'm quick enough, because after around 30 seconds LibreOffice crashes.Sometimes I get the message
Due to an unexpected error, LibreOffice crashed.
and sometimes the crash report dialog from Mac OS X pops up.LibreOffice Vanilla app on mac app store. Asked 2018-01-10 14:09:15 +0200. Jacquesdejager 1. LibreOffice 7.0.3.1 - Free, open-source office suite. Download the latest versions of the best Mac apps at safe and trusted MacUpdate.
I have tried the latest stable version 6.2.8002 (6.2.8002) from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/.. and I tried to install the newest version available at
homebrew
(6.3.2) but the Symptoms are the same.Here are the first lines of my crash report:
To me it looks like the
UpdateCheckThread
is causing the crash which makes sense, since LibreOffice works fine for a while and it crashes after a while without doing any specific action.I have a working internet connection.Any idea why this is or how I can solve it?
Kind regardsAndreas

tdf#127619 is about the same problem - but it tells about pre-Catalina..

Thanks Mike, that's exactly my issue!I started LibreOffice again, went quickly to the settings and disabled AutoUpdate. Now it works without issues!However if I trigger the 'check for update' function LO crashes immediately.But at least I can use LO now and I can live with manually checking for updates and install them from the website. Maybe I can re-enable the update check if the issue is solved in a newer version.
That bug needs a crucial piece of information, which could help fixing it. It is bibisection, a process of finding the firch code change that resulted in the problem.
To bibisect, one needs to be able to reproduce the problem, and have some energy to repeatedly (around 12 times) launch the program to nail down to the problematic commit. You have an environment where you can reproduce the crash. If you could spend some time bibisecting, and post the results to that bug, that would be really important contribution!
Hi Mike, I would like to assist by investigating on this and/or trying different versions and follow the Bibisect guide.However I'm sceptic that this might help in this case: - I was running an older version (I think it was 6.2.4) when the issue happened for me right after upgrading to Catalina (it did work before!) and it also happens with 6.2.8 and 6.3.2 which are the current versions. Looking at Bug #127619 this issue is related to some external library (nss3/nssutil3) or other circumstances. Since from my understanding there is no version that has introduced this issue and the only workaround is to disable the update check, it is unlikely that an intermediate version would not have the issue.- I'm not using
LibreOffice Vanilla for Mac (in the Mac App Store)
. Instead I downloaded the release from the website ..(more)The bug report claims that the first failing version of LibreOffice was 6.1 - so first step would be confirming that 6.0 doesn't fail, and 6.1 fails. Then, if that's true, then you'd need to download the 6.1 bibisect repo, and follow the procedure to find the problem. If 6.0 fails, then bug report needs updating, and earlier versions need checking, until either a version that doesn't fail is found, or it's confirmed that it was failing forever..
Turning off the automatic updates worked for me.
I am on Mac OS High Sierra, and I had the same issue. I upgraded from 6.2.5 to 6.2.8 and it seemed to work ok. Sometime in the last week I installed the new security update from Apple, and after that I noticed that LibreOffice kept crashing. I just spent the past day trying all sorts of fixes, resetting my user profile, reinstalling Java, reverting to 6.2.5 or earlier versions from my Time Machine backup, and even reinstalling XServer. After everything I tried, LibreOffice would crash after a minute or so. I finally stumbled upon this thread and disabled the update check. Now it's been over 10 minutes and LO is still running! So excited that I created a user account on here to post a comment on this thread!
@hring Thank you for the feedback. It was also my observation that the issue started after a Mac OS system upgrade, not an update for LibreOffice.

@Mike I have downloaded LibreOffice 6.0.1 from https://downloadarchive.documentfound.. and I confirm that the issue does not affect this version. I can manually check for updates without an issue which caused the latest versions to crash. However, when I try to open the preferences panel in LO 6.0.0.1 it crashes immediately. But that's another issue which is unrelated and it does not occur on the latest version.Would downloading the different LO versions from https://downloadarchive.documentfound.. be an option to nail down what the first version was that has the update issue?I took a look at the Bibisect guide but I'm confused that there seems to be no repository for versions 6.0 and ..(more)
You need only to download v.6.1.0 - to check that the problem indeed started between these two major versions. If it did, then you need to use bibisect repo for 6.1 - which is mentioned on the bibisect page that I referred above. Thank you!
I have downloaded version 6.1.0.1 and LO crashes as soon as I hit the 'Check now' button in the Online Update section of the preferences. I'm currently doing a 'git clone https://git.libreoffice.org/bibisect-..' and see how that works.
I have cloned the Bibisect repo
bibisect-mac64-6.1
and did a git checkout oldest
and made sure that the issue did not happen on this version (6.0.0.0.alpha1+).From my understanding of the Bibisect guide the next step would be to do a git bisect start latest oldest
but this gives me the following error:I removed and downloaded the repo again to make sure it is complete, this didn't help.I typed the command just as it is, do I need to replace
latest
and oldest
with the version hashes of the repo from a git log
or something else?I'm sorry for being this stupid, but I've never done a bibisect before and have no idea what ..(more)Here are the sections on this Web page:
You also can obtain LibreOffice through the Mac App Store, called LibreOffice Vanilla. Click here to see a page about this version.
Mac LibreOffice vs. Windows and Linux versions
LibreOffice for the Mac has all the features and applications that the Windows and Linux distro versions have. However, when it comes to being installed, the Mac version of LibreOffice has less options than the other two.
The Windows version has a typical installation and a customized installation, that allows users to choose user interface languages, components, and dictionaries through an installation wizard. The wizard also has features that allow the installed LibreOffice to be modified and uninstalled. In addition to this, there are several versions of the suite in the Windows 10 Store and a portable version that can be taken from computer to computer.
Many Linux distros come with LibreOffice preinstalled, or the it can easily be installed through the distros PPA. Users can install individual applications, and they don’t have to install the entire suite. There are also several different ways to download the suite: directly through the Website, through Snap, through Flatpak, as an AppImage, etc.
The Mac version can either be downloaded directly from libreoffice.org or installed through the Mac Store. Unlike the Linux versions, only the entire suite can be installed. Individual applications cannot be left uninstalled. It also doesn’t have individual icons for each application. In order to launch LibreOffice without clicking on a document that has already been created, you have to click the white icon that launches StartCenter.
Download from Website
The most common way to install LibreOffice is by downloading the DMG file from libreoffice,org and then running the installation process. The specific page is https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/
- If you are visiting the Web page on your Mac, the Web page will recognize that you are using a Mac and shows macOS in the drop-down menus for the two versions that are available.
- If you are not using a Mac, simply click the drop-down menu for one of the two version choices. Then click on macOS (64-bit).
The latest version is on top. It has the latest features and changes from the development team. The bottom version is older, but most likely has less bugs because it has been tested for a longer period of time.
Simply click the Download button for the desired one. NOTE: You may want to change the location where your browser downloads the DMG.
After clicking the Download button, you will be taken to a Donation page. There is no need to make a donation. The download has already started.
Installing
Once the DMG is downloaded, go to where the file is located. Double-click it. This opens a dialog that allows you to drag an image of the LibreOffice icon to an image of the Applications folder.
Libreoffice Mac App Store Windows 10
- Click the LibreOffice image and hold down the left-side of the mouse button.
- Drag the LibreOffice image into the image of the folder. This will start the installation process.
Libreoffice Mac App Store App
To launch the application, go to the the Application folder, and double-click the LibreOffice icon. It will launch and the icon will appear in the Dock.

- Click Settings, either the icon or System Preferences in the Apple menu, to launch Settings.
- Click the Security & Privacy icon.
- Click the General tab
- If Allow apps downloaded from cannot be changed, click the lock in the bottom, left of the dialog.
- Type your password in the dialog that appears.
- Click the Unlock button.
- Click the radio button for App Store and identified developers
- Click the lock in the bottom, left corner of the dialog.
