Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.1) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: GCC 3.4.4 OS: Linux Assume I view a remote location via SFTP, the address is: sftp://user@my-sftp-host.example.com/ When I now want to change the address in the location bar, for example changing "my-sftp-host" to "my-other-sftp-host", then after each typed character a dialog pops up saying: Unexpected SFTP error: 2 Error encountered while talking to ssh. It looks as if after each keystroke an attempt is made to connect to that incomplete and therefore incorrect URL.
Hi, The autocompletion provided by KURLCompletion causes problems for remote protocols that support listing, e.g ftp and sftp. If the user tries to edit the url in Konqueror's location bar (s)he is liable to get and error message because KURLCompletion attempts to provide autocompletion for an invalid URL. See http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108812. The attached patch disables completion support for remote protocols by default. Created an attachment (id=11789) kurlcompletion.diff
I also experience this problem on KDE 3.5.0. Autocompletion fails when authentication to the remote host is not completed, so it should be disabled *until* the authentication information has been provided. The status of this bug is 'unconfirmed', shouldn't this be changed to 'new' or 'assigned'?

Same deal here, Debian testing, kde 3.5.5. sftp doesn't show the error window when trying to autocomplete folders and files that don't exist on the server. What reason does it have to complain when the server it tries to connect to doesn't exist? (I figure that's basically what happens when autocomplete sends the incomplete URL. Not that I actually know how any of it works, though. :-) )
Is there any news on this one? The default behaviour is quite annoying. It would be nice if the autocompletion would silently fail, but still be there.
same problem here seems pretty simple to fix (albeit I haven't looked at the code), see comment #2 I'm not sure what's going on, but if this bug is sending any information to the server behind the user's back, it should be fixed immediately (just my 2 cents)

I don't think autocompletion should be disabled, I think errors from kioslaves during autocompletion should simply not show message boxes.
SVN commit 908187 by dfaure: Don't call messageBox! Leave GUI handling to the apps - e.g. during autocompletion we certainly don't want a messagebox Fix will be in 4.2. BUG: 108812 M +11 -4 kio_sftp.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=908187
Great, thanks for fixing this!
