OpenOffice 2.3 crashes when opening a simple txt file

Thank you for your report.
I've downloaded the file and opened it with OOo Writer using Unicode and Ascii/US encoding. It didn't crash. Can you try to run open office from the terminal (command: oowriter), open the file and paste here all output, please?

terminal output:
ftp://hainspiel44.homeip.net/tobi/public/temp/misc/terminal%20output
(or attachement)

In OpenOffice 2.2 (Feisty Fawn) he asks me to choose the encoding... but in Gutsy with OpenOffice 2.3 it crashes without asking for encoding...

Maybe this is unrelated, but I've seen in your log that there are errors shown due to your theme-settings (LiNsta). Does this happen for other gtk-themes, e.g. human or clearlooks, too?

Tested!

It ask me about encoding and - no problem at all.

if is about theme-settings is not OK because ;) why I can't use Open Office because of my colors ??

if it's about themes - must be solved too.

But I think it is nothing that can be fixed in Ubuntu - the theme you've selected is not packaged, you can (and should) ask the author to fix it. Only if you have troubles with themes that are packaged for release, this would be a valid task for ubuntu.

/home/tobi/.themes/LiNsta3/gtk-2.0/menubar-custom.rc:34: Background image options specified without filename

Seems the author of the theme have missed a value of an option. Please, tobb, Paste here the line 34 (and/or 25) of the file /home/tobi/.themes/LiNsta3/gtk-2.0/menubar-custom.rc

I think OpenOffice may throw an error when themes are corrupted.

Ah sry, you are right... its no OpenOffice problem.
You can close this...
