Description S. Burmeister 2009-12-29 13:27:08 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

This is a strange bug I need help to debug.

If I copy the folder via dolphin, i.e. d&d or CTRL+C/V, dolphin tells me that it cannot write path/filename.

If I open a konsole and copy the files it works.

If I create the folder manually and drop the folder in its parent via dolphin the files get copied too. So I guess there is something wrong with creating the folder.

However copying other folders from the same parent folder works without problems in dolphin.

ls -la shows:

drwxr-xr-x   2 rabauke users 0 23. Feb 2009  Super Hits

So that should be fine as well.

How can I find out what bug causes dolphin to not create the folder when dragging and dropping it?

@Sven: Does the error message appear in the status bar or as dialog box? Would it be possible that you post the exact error message to this bug report? Thanks!

It's a dialog box. Tried to reproduce it and deleting the folder "Super Hits" and d+d it again works. Yet if I delete the parent folder "Johnny Cash" and drop that one which of course includes "Super Hits" I get the same notification again:

"Folder /home/username/Ablage/Musik/Volksmusik/Johnny Cash/Super Hits cannot be created." or in German "Ordner xyz kann nicht erstellt werden."

cp -R Johnny\ Cash/ /home/username/Ablage/Musik/Volksmusik/ which is the equivalent command on the command line works.

I'm not able to reproduce it with KDE SC 4.5. 
Are you able to reproduce it with a more recent KDE SC version?

Cannot reproduce with Dolphin 17.12.3, closing for inactivity. Please reopen if this problem persists in the newest version.
