Description dhiru1602 2015-01-24 17:01:07 UTC
I am trying to edit files over SSH (SFTP) and whenever I try to open the file, I get the error below.

Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Unknown protocol 'sftp'.

SFTP worked perfectly fine on the earlier version of Kate.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Dolphin and navigate to an SSH remote folder
2. Right click the file, choose Open With -> Kate
3. The error message appears

Actual Results:  
Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Unknown protocol 'sftp'.

Expected Results:  
The file should be opened for editing.

This issue was resolved after installing kio-extras.
