Description Henry Pfeil 2022-09-11 20:29:50 UTC
SUMMARY
***
Insufficient space error when moving files/directories between partitions with over a terabyte of free space
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Move 30Gb of files onto a partition with 1.5 Tb free

OBSERVED RESULT
ERROR: There is not enough space on the disk to write <filename>

EXPECTED RESULT
Just move the files, there is plenty of free space available on the target partition.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:  5.25.4
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.97.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Could this be a result of using 64-bit btrfs partitions?
Comment 1 Henry Pfeil 2022-09-11 20:53:58 UTC
Using a Konsole window I was able to trace the problem to files greater than 1 Gb. This suggests it is not a problem with Dolphin, but with system libraries. I'm closing this as a Dolphin bug, but I have no idea where to report moving files larger than 1Gb (`mv <file> <otherPartition>`).
