SUMMARY When typing a location in the location bar, the contents of the bar will reset to the current directory after several seconds. This doesn't happen every time, but it is very common. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open dolphin. 2. Press CTRL+L. 3. Begin typing an address, e.g. /home/... OBSERVED RESULT The location shown in the address bar will reset to the current directory, losing what was typed. EXPECTED RESULT The typed location should not be overwritten. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Ubuntu 22.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I saw this bug mentioned on 2022-01-11: https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/s1m2sx/dolphin_location_navigation_refreshes/
Cannot reproduce the issue. Could you attach a screen recording that shows it happening? Also can you upgrade to Frameworks 5.93 or 5.94? If either of those fixes the issue, it's possible it was fixed by https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/commit/fdacbf4e290c856a72a5988f5a612360a76af896

After a reboot, the problem disappeared.

I am attaching my /etc/inputrc just in case...

I always had and have this problem (several computers and dolphin / kde versions). Still have no matter number of reboots.
Any development? This bug makes my dolphin completely useless, since I cannot access to my SFTP shares. I can't even write a single character. I tried with the "Text completion" to NONE, but it is still not working.
Created attachment 155369 [details] bug in Krusader 2.8.0, too! This bug appears in krusader 2.8, too! I've attached a screen recording.
After updating to Fedora 38 and Dolphin 23.04.1, the problem disappeared.
Tracey, is that the case for you as well?
I upgraded to 23.04.1, unfortunately it does not help :-(
I think I finally found the cause of this bug! I have Docker that generates continuously (ever second) a file called /tmp/runc-* and deletes it. This prevents the editing ability on the location bar. Stoppoing Docker fixes this problem.

OMG, never thought that Docker would be culprit here! I confirm that issue is no longer persist after stopping Docker daemon. Thank you! At least we have workaround for now...
(In reply to Sergey Popov from comment #23) > OMG, never thought that Docker would be culprit here! > I confirm that issue is no longer persist after stopping Docker daemon. > Thank you! At least we have workaround for now... For curiosity, what docker container are you using?
(In reply to Luca Manganelli from comment #24) > For curiosity, what docker container are you using? oas1 ~ # docker ps -a CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES 9af29255df7b zerotier/zerotier:1.10.6 "/entrypoint.sh af0c…" 12 hours ago Up 12 hours (healthy) zerotier
I also run docker. Lots of different containers (postgres, nginx, …), though not that zerotier one.
I also have running docker (and this issue), but could not find the /tmp/runc-* file yet. But shutting down docker is no option, since I need it constantly for work. We need a solution for this, as it severely cripples dolphins usefullness.
I confirm running docker stop $(docker ps -a -q) removes the problem. I *think* I did not have the problem before I add 'fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288' in sysctl.conf. I'd have to check. using Dolphin Version 21.12.3
Does the location bar seem to track changes in the directory? Suspected a TOCTOU problem, but in my case autocompletion seems to read the contents of the directory once, then it doesn't care about any changes at all, new directories don't appear in /tmp while at least "/t" is in the URL, have to get to just "/" so it starts autocompleting there, then getting back to "/tmp/" refreshes the cache. KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.110.0 Attempted to reproduce with the following ran as root which should be similar to what Docker (actually runc) appears to be doing: rm -rf /tmp/dolphintest; while :; do mkdir /tmp/dolphintest; chmod 2700 /tmp/dolphintest; sleep 1; rm -rf /tmp/dolphintest; sleep 1; done Directory content tracking tends to break though after heavy I/O, so checked on another system too which was only likely used, but autocompletion seems to be "sticky" there too, so I'm really wondering if I'm going in the wrong direction, or autocompletion updates with changes for others.
