Version: 3.5.5 (using KDE 3.5.5, Debian Package 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5 (4.0)) Compiler: Target: i486-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.18rs Within konqueror go to a ftp server you have write permissions on. Create a test file. Select it, press Ctrl-C. Deselect it. Press Ctrl-V. The testing file will be truncated to 0 bytes. Instead of this, a warning dialog should appear asking to rename the file or at least an overwrite warning should appear.
Testing with 3.5.5 current HEAD I get a dialog telling me "This action would overwrite ftp://.... with itself. Please enter a new filename"
If you mean this is a problem already solved in the last development repository, then I have nothing to object, since I'm only using the latest stable version which I think is still 3.5.5. So we have three possibilities here: a)I'm doing anything wrong or just not explaining properly. b)This problem has been fixed after 3.5.5 c)Distro related bug. I think the most plausible here is a), since http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/3.5/kdelibs/kioslave/ftp was modified 2 months ago and if I'm correct modifications don't apply to this problem. Regarding c), I don't think debian has any influence here, but I'll double check it. By the way could be so kind to tell me what else could I do to show/explain this problem (maybe screenshots). Checked right now and happened again. Thanks.
I can't say if it was fixed after 3.5.5 release (but there will be 3.5.6 soon, so you can check again with that). You also could try with a different FTP site - probably it has something to do with the ftp server software. You can also try to run a ftp server locally and try with this.
Did you try now with 3.5.6 ?
Thanks for caring. Right now on 3.5.6. I repeat the procedure and same result. The only difference is that now I attach a wireshark capture, so the problem is clearer. Maybe you're right and is a FTP server problem. It's an Xbox dashboard (EvoX), I wouldn't use this for professional use BTW.
