Version: 1.1 (using 4.1.00 (KDE 4.1.0), Gentoo) Compiler: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.26-zen2-01138-gbe698db One of my filesystems is handled by autofs, so it is often unmounted, but is automatically mounted by autofs when I access it in a terminal or file browser. However, clicking on the shortcut to it in Dolphin's Places bar or the Device Notifier plasma widget causes Dolphin to attempt mounting the filesystem, bypassing autofs. This results in a "Permission Denied" message and prevents me from accessing the drive unless I browse to it by path. The expected behavior would be for Dolphin to recognize that the unmounted volume is handled by autofs and simply access the volume as if it was mounted, letting autofs do the mounting as needed.
You could hide the places entry for the autofs mount point and add the folder as a place entry instead.

This bug is still relevant, even for dolphin version 18.08.03. The directory is mounted via x-systemd.automount via NFS on a remote server. Using the shortcut under "Remote" a permission denied message pops up. Accessing the path e.g. via Konsole mounts the directory correctly.
This is one of the most annoying bugs in Dolphin. Still present in Kubuntu 20.10 (Dolphin 20.08.2,KDE Frameworks 5.74.0)
Does this affect the file open/save dialogs too?
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #6) > Does this affect the file open/save dialogs too? Just tested using Kate 21.12.0/KDE Frameworks 5.89.0: In the file save dialog, there is no error message like in Dolphin, but selecting the unmounted volume fails on the first attempt (instead, the home folder gets selected). After this first unsuccessfull attempt, the volume icon changes from red to green, and afterwards I can select it. (This is basically the same bevavior like in Dolphin, but without the error message that dolphin shows which doesn't disappear when mounting succeeds.)
Thanks.
