SUMMARY Show Samba status monitor button under Share tab does nothing when clicked. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Right click on a folder that is shared 2. Select Properties->Share 3. Click on the Show Samba status monitor botton OBSERVED RESULT EXPECTED RESULT Nothing happens. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.24.1 KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.91.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION This was definitely working in previous versions. I used it all the time. Note there is nothing recorded in the journalctl it appears that it is just a dead button now.
I have another observation. The android notification and the KDE Connect notification progress bars during the send do not match. They are out of sync. On Android, I see the file progress bar complete and the status changes to "Sent file" On KDE Neon, I see the KDE Connect Receiving file progress bar stop at 80% and freeze. It never completes. If I look at the target directory, the file did not complete and still has a .part filename. I believe this is the problem. The KDE connect server is telling the receiver that the file has finished transferring before it actually finishes and then it leaves the receiver frozen and never completed the transfer.
Do you have the Info Center app installed?
Did we maybe break this by moving to json? void SambaUserSharePlugin::showSambaStatus() { KService::Ptr kcm = KService::serviceByStorageId(QStringLiteral("smbstatus")); if (!kcm) { // TODO: meh - we have no availability handling. I may have a handy class in plasma-disks return; } KIO::ApplicationLauncherJob(kcm).start(); }
Yeah, seems like we used KService to fetch the application instead of using kinfocenter directly
