Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.3) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Almost immediately after I view the source of a web page in kate, I get a message saying that the file was deleted and do I want to save/ignore/cancel. I am not sure if this is a gentoo issue or kde but something is immediately deleting the file. The path of the tmp files is something like: file:///tmp/kde-username/konquerorzwu02b.html
OK, what you're seeing is likely proper consequences of a bug got fixed. Do you have any files under ~/.kde/share/applications (or ~/.kde/share/applnk ? )
I do not have the ~/.kde/share/applications dir but I do have ~/.kde/share/applnk and it contains a few directories, mostly empty except for a few .directory files from my custom kmenu
Please fix this. It's been here for a year. Still in kde 3.5.2
I'm not the only one either: http://www.mechanicalcat.net/richard/log/News/Ubuntu_Breezy_time
This only happens if I try to use an existing kate session, so my file association for text/plain is /usr/kde/3.5/bin/kate -u %U If I only use /usr/kde/3.5/bin/kate %U, then it works but now I have multiple kate windows open which is a mess. Also it seems that it's only some files that do this. Most web pages get saved as /tmp/kde-user/konquerorSOMENUMBER.tmp. If this is the case, it shows that message. I don't think the file ever gets created actually. Some other web pages, mostly local ones from my local server, get saved as kateSOMENUMBER.tmp file and show up in kate with the actual filename (i.e index.php). Not sure what determines this.
I can reproduce this with 3.5 branch r575787. Steps to reproduce: 1. Set association for text/plain to "kate -u %u" as previously described 2. Go to a webpage. Hit Ctrl+U 3. Wait for kate to appear (with no problems) 4. Go back to konq and hit Ctrl+U again 5. The source is opened again in kate, and this time generates the error described. The only thing I can see in the debug output that seems relevant is: kio (Slave): slave failed to connect to application pid=2358 protocol=file kio (Slave): slave is slow... pid=2358 t=4 kio (Slave): slave failed to connect to application pid=2358 protocol=file kio (Slave): slave is slow... pid=2358 t=6 kio_file: Starting 2358 although this appears *before* the second kate instance is started. Full debug log is available if anyone wants it
Pretty sure this is the same cause as 130709. I'll mark as a dupe of the newer bug since the newer bug has a fairly complete analysis *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 130709 ***
