When dragging a file (e.g. an image) from a website to dolphin, dolphin will download the file with a .part extension and then attempt to rename it. However, if a file with the target name already exists, at this point dolphin will display an error message instead of giving an option to overwrite. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a file with the same name as one on the internet 2. Drag the internet file into the same directory and click "Copy Here" 3. Wait for dolphin to download the file. Once done, a dialog will appear, saying "Could not rename partial file /path/to/file. Please check permissions" (this occurs regardless of permissions) 4. Click "Retry" 5. Now a "File already exists" dialog will appear, albeit without an option to rename the file. Click either "resume" or "overwrite" (both do the same thing, i.e. nothing). 6. A second "File already exists" dialog will appear, this time with an option to rename. Click "overwrite" 7. File will finally be overwritten as expected Actual Results: Three dialogs appeared throughout the course of overwriting a file Expected Results: Only the final dialog need have been shown, with the option to rename or overwrite. I'm using dolphin 15.08.2 using KDE frameworks 5.15.0 on Archlinux (openbox).
I can reproduce this, also with Dolphin 15.08.2/KDE 5.15.0 on Arch. However, it seems to work as expected with Dolphin 14.12.3 / KDE 4.14.3.
Same problem when copying files from remote connections (fish protocol) in dolphin.
I can confirmed the same behavior if copying files from an archive open as a folder in dolphin. Files are copied with a .part extention and then renamed to their original basename. If files with same name already exists on destination, the copied file is left on the destination with the .part extension and dolphin pops up an information dialog stating "Could not rename partial file .... Please check permission". dolphin 15.08.3 KF 5.18 qt 5.5.1
This does not happen for me with Dolphin 17.12.3. Could somebody retry and confirm that this issue has since been fixed?
Indeed, also works for me on dolphin 17.12.3 Thanks!
Great, I'll close this bug then. Have a nice day :)
