Description H.H. 2010-08-19 09:16:39 UTC
Version:           unspecified
OS:                Linux

I don't know if this is a problem of kio_sftp or dolphin. but when asked for a password, and I press cancel, the dialog appears again - 3 times. when leaving the tab, and activating it again, same again. 

after a "cancel" operation there should be no further dialogs, only on manual refresh (F5).

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Peter Penz 2010-08-19 19:28:36 UTC
Thanks for the report. Could you please let us know which KDE version you are using?
Comment 2 H.H. 2010-08-19 20:46:37 UTC
yes, sorry, I use kde-4.5. 

why does the reporting-assistant not fill in the kde version by itself as in previous kde/bugzilla-versions?
Comment 3 Andreas Schneider 2010-08-19 21:57:07 UTC
Well, this is more or less how it works. The first time it asks for the password for the public key and if this doesn't work it tries keyboard interactive.
Comment 4 H.H. 2010-08-19 22:27:47 UTC
I don't understand. If the user wants to "cancel" authorization, it should really cancel. There should be a difference, if the user cancels, or if something other on authorization fails.
Comment 5 Andreas Schneider 2010-08-30 20:27:33 UTC
Could you be more specific about the password dialogs?

Are both identical?

If not what's the difference?
Comment 6 H.H. 2010-08-30 20:57:06 UTC
yes, they are both identical, to reproduce, simply open sftp for kde.org :-)

sftp://kde.org/

I am asked 3 times, although I cancel everytime.
Comment 7 H.H. 2010-08-30 21:00:03 UTC
why this is so annoying for me: my last dolphin session with multiple sftp tabs is restored at kde-start, and sometimes, I do not want to open all connections, and am asked 9 times for 3 tabs for example.
Comment 8 Andreas Schneider 2010-08-30 21:16:40 UTC
Does this happen with konqueror too?
Comment 9 Andreas Schneider 2010-08-30 21:28:44 UTC
If you enter the URL sftp://kde.org then dolphin does a 'listDir' on that directory. If you press 'cancel' dolphin, I don't understand why, calls 'stat'. That's the reason you get two dialog windows.

You can see set if you enable debut output of kio_sftp.

kio_sftp(12565) sftpProtocol::openConnection: User canceled, dlgResult =  false
kio_sftp(12565) sftpProtocol::closeConnection: closeConnection()

The connection is correctly closed ...
Comment 10 H.H. 2010-08-30 21:42:00 UTC
I doesn't happen with konqueror, so really a dolphin bug, as I originally reported?
Comment 11 Andreas Schneider 2010-08-31 16:08:16 UTC
The first sftp operation is normally a stat. You can see that with konqueror.

I think the tree view on the left side of dolphin is issuing the listDir call and the main part is calling stat. So it is fine if you enter correct credentials cause the second call can use them.

Assigning back to dolphin.
