Description Georg Wittenburg 2009-01-03 01:16:10 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Accessing a remote folder via fish:// works fine in 4.1.86 (using unofficial Debian packages from kde42.debian.net version 4:4.1.86+svn902162-0r1), however using the "Network Folder Wizard" does not.

How to reproduce:
1) In Dolphin, click on Network in Places
2) Double click "Add Network Folder"
3) Select ssh
4) Enter any (valid) info (as simple as your user_name@localhost)
=> Error "Unable to connect to server. Check your settings and try again."

I double-checked for typos in the settings, but it's all exactly the same data that works fine when typed into the address bar using fish:// directly.

One more minor thing: The default encoding in the wizard is "Arabic (ISO 8859-6)". Most probably something like UTF-8 would be a better choice for most users.

Thanks for the report, but I could not reproduce the issue (I used also a user from the localhost). Can somebody else reproduce this issue?

Comment 2 Georg Wittenburg 2009-01-04 21:38:03 UTC

Thanks for your reply.

I just gave it another try, just to make it wasn't fixed by a reboot or something. I can still reproduce it 100%.

Further, I had a look at ~/.xsession-errors and found these two lines:
kdeinit4: preparing to launch                                                   
kioslave: ####### CRASH ###### protocol = fish pid = 10018 signal = 29          

So it seems to be a crash of kio_fish. I tried to run kio_fish from the command line and can reproduce the error in about 50% of the cases:

Note how I get ERROR 143 in the first and in the fourth run, while the second and third run are OK. Maybe a timing problem?

Comment 3 Peter Penz 2009-01-04 21:46:24 UTC

I've changed the component to kio, as you say this looks like a fish protocol issue.

Comment 4 Georg Wittenburg 2009-01-05 12:40:32 UTC

Maybe this is a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=145123 .

Comment 5 Georg Wittenburg 2009-01-28 02:11:38 UTC

Works as of 4.2.0. Thanks.
