SUMMARY When you double-click an FTP file, it does as if it was a folder, so when opening ftp://..../a.txt , you get into a non-existing folder ftp://..../a.txt in which you can see a.txt again, but now after a double-click it says that a.txt dosn't exist "550 Unknown error 187". When copying/pasting a.txt in a second dolphin Window (not tab) that is not ftp, let's say downloads, it creates a folder named a.txt and gives you an error message "unable to write in the file". STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open an FTP connection 2. Create a file 3. Double-click on it OBSERVED RESULT see attachment EXPECTED RESULT opening a.txt with the default .txt editor (kate in my case) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Linux (x86_64) release 5.13.11-1-MANJARO KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.44 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2

This is also happening on my Ubuntu based KDE Plasma window desktop. Not happening when switching from Plasma to default Ubuntu window system
updating "Platform" from Manjaro to "unspecified" (same error on more platforms)
Also, copying a file to computer, from X-Plore's FTP server on Android mobile phone just makes empty directory with the same name, no data is copied. Double Commander works with that FTP server.
Nils I am unable to reproduce this issue in Dolphin 24.12.1. Can you please re-check and confirm if this issue is still occurring? If it is, please change the status back to REPORTED. Augusto/Marko you seem to be having different issues to the original report. If you are still experiencing them, please open a new report for the issue.
