Comment 1 Nate Graham 2019-04-01 18:13:27 UTC 
Well, is that share accessible?
Comment 2 Patrick Silva 2019-04-01 18:19:50 UTC 
Yes. After clik "Ok" in the error message, I can open another text file located in the same samba share.
Comment 3 Ahmad Samir 2019-04-09 20:21:26 UTC 
I don't have access to a samba share to test, but somehow the QFileDialog is including the file name (IPs.txt) in the directory path...

Can you reproduce that issue in other apps too, or only with Kate?

Couldn't reproduce it at all, since as I said, I don't have access to a samba server readily at hand.
Comment 6 Christoph Cullmann 2019-07-14 12:03:04 UTC 
I tried this with Kate master and Kate 19.04.
This works for me as intended.

(samba 4.x server at work)
Comment 7 Patrick Silva 2019-07-15 00:03:05 UTC 
I can reproduce this behavior on both Arch Linux and Neon unstable edition.
Comment 8 Christoph Cullmann 2019-07-15 06:01:56 UTC 
Do other KDE applications work?

e.g. could you try if Krita can open a file over smb://?

I tested krita, kolourpaint and okular.
I can't reproduce with KolourPaint and Okular.
Ktita not even can open a file over smb, and it shows no error message.

bug 408174 seems related
Comment 11 Justin Zobel 2020-10-27 08:51:20 UTC 
I've just tested this on git master without issue.

Can those affected please retest and confirm if the issue still persists.
Comment 12 Patrick Silva 2020-10-27 23:57:26 UTC 
Tested Kate 20.08.2 on Arch Linux and master on neon unstable,
none of them displays the error message.
