Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.5.95) OS: Linux If I open my home folder I have a folder named "Ablage". Pressing CTRL+F opens the search tab and I set it to search for filename "ablage" "from here" yet it does not find anything. Reproducible: Always
If you've enabled Nepomuk/Strigi for this folder it is probably a duplicate of bug 262274 and has been fixed in the meantime. Did you enable Nepomuk/Strigi?
I do not think it is that bug because it does find some docs that are in sub-folders but it does not find the folder i.e. /home/username/Ablage is not displayed as result if I start a search for "ablage" no matter whether I use "from here" or "everywhere".
We'd please need the information whether you're folder where "Ablage" is located is indexed by Nepomuk/Strigi or not, otherwise we cannot assign it to the proper component. Thanks.
yes, home/username is indexed as well as home/username/Ablage
oh, and of course if one disables nepomuk the folder is found.
@Sven: Thanks for the update! @Sebastian: Is there a way to find out whether a file has been indexed already by Strigi/Nepomuk? My guess is that in the scope of this bug-report the file is not in the index (I had similar issues recently because of an inconsistent state of kdesupport/kdelibs/kdebase).

And by file you also mean folder, right? :) I'm pretty sure it was indexed already since files from within that folder are found. What I mean is that if there is a file ablage.txt in /home/username/ablage and I search for ablage the result should include: item 1: ablage item 2: ablage.txt as the same search does when executed with nepomuk disabled.
Simple: Dolpin only queries files. If you want it to query folders, too one has to change dolphinsearchbox.cpp:378. The world is not ready for non-folder results yet. ;)
So with nepomuk enabled dolphin in 4.6 lacks the feature of finding folders when one searches for "filename". Doing exactly the same search (as everything within dolphin is the same from a user's point of view) but with nepomuk enabled does find folders. Does this not sound like a basic feature which has been around for ages?
Sorry, I meant: Doing exactly the same search (as everything within dolphin is the same from a user's point of view) but with nepomuk _disabled_ does find folders.
OK, then I'll change line 378 from DolphinSearchBox to fileQuery.setFileMode(Nepomuk::Query::FileQuery:: QueryFilesAndFolders); if there are no objections (-> it is consistent with the non-indexed searching). I'm not sure whether the tagging for 4.6.0 has been done already, it might be possible that the fix has to wait until 4.6.1 though...

As far as I could see, 4.6.0 has not been tagged yet -> the fix should be ready for 4.6.0 :-)
Good news! Thanks for the quick fix.
