Description Sergei Andreev 2010-05-22 21:24:13 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.3)
Compiler:          gcc-4.4 4.4.3-4ubuntu5 amd64
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

After some time I began to receive message "The process for the file protocol died unexpectedly" on every attempt to open File dialogue or tab in Dolphin.

This situation first started in kubuntu 9.10 and continued in kubuntu 10.04

Gtk applications work with file system as usual. 

$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04

Qt: 4.6.2

The system is up-to-date.

Synaptic launched with root rights tells this on exit:

Comment 3 zOOm_ER 2010-07-19 14:15:57 UTC
Confirmed on openSUSE 11.2 with KDE SC 4.4.5
The problem occurs after some time (for ex. last time it was 18 idle hours, while i was asleep)

When i try to navigate to other dir in dolphin, here what i got :

******* xsession-errors *************
dolphin(3746): Failed to lock file "/var/tmp/kdecache-u1/kpc/kde-icon-cache.lock" , last result = 2 
... ^^^ repeated several times
dolphin(3746): Failed to lock file "/var/tmp/kdecache-u1/kpc/kde-icon-cache.lock" , last result = 2 
dolphin(3746) KIO::SlavePrivate::SlavePrivate: Connection server not listening, could not connect

kio_file(3873)/kio (KIOConnection) KIO::Connection::connectToRemote: Unknown requested KIO::Connection protocol=' "" ' ( "" )
*******************************

In dolphin window there was few tabs, one of them using fish:/ protocol
(if this matters) Neither local, nor remote browsing does not work.
Comment 4 Sergei Andreev 2011-10-02 19:23:01 UTC
There was no evidence of this bug in Kubuntu 11.04 with KDE 4.6 and 4.7
I think it could be closed now.
