Description Pavel Simerda 2005-12-15 22:39:36 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.3)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

I'm still not sure when exactly this occurs...

Konqueror is trying to connect to the server before i press <enter>. And it shows a message box with error.

Siplest way is to just type: sftp://localhost/

More interesting is this case:
* Imagine you are viewing your web page (http://webhost/webpages/page.php)
* You decide to view the php source
and you delete the http://webhost
* And you want to type sftp://user@sftphost/srv/www
  - Typing 'sftp:' is ok
  - When you type '/' you get an error
  - Second '/' goes well.
  - Now every single letter except '@' and the final one causes the error message to show up.


Cheers, Pavel

As the above is a bit unspecific, a way to confirm this:

Assume having 2 accounts on a server called server.

a) I enter sftp://server/ and press enter. The sftp page is loaded and shown.
b) Now I want to change user and set cursor before the servername and enter the first letter: --> Looks like sftp://userver/. Wait ca. 1 second. The error pops up. It is important, that you change it manually and not use drag and drop.

Probably ever modification, which creates an invalid address causes this bug.

It seems like the reloading of an existing sftp connection is a bit overactive?

Yes, got the same problem -- this is quite an annoying bug. Also happens for example if I want to change the URL sftp://user@somehost.com/home/user to sftp://user@somehost.com:9999/home/user, to change the port number. Very, very annoying, since typing the URL becomes virtually impossible.
