SUMMARY After upgrading Dolphin to 25.08.2, I am no longer able to copy local files to an SMB share via Dolphin. I get an error "Access denied". STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Copy a file from local computer 2. Navigate to SMB share from Dolphin, e.g.: smb://buzz.local/Media/ 3. Paste OBSERVED RESULT Dolphin gives error message: "Access denied. Could not write to smb://buzz.local/Media." EXPECTED RESULT File should paste to folder on SMB share. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.10.0 Kernel Version: 6.17.2-arch1-1 (64-bit) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION This worked with dolphin 25.08.1. I updated arch a few days ago, bringing dolphin to 25.08.2. I rebooted after updating all packages, and was immediately no longer able to paste files to the folder on my SMB server. I can still upload the file manually with smbclient, so the issue seems to be with Dolphin: 1. smbclient //buzz.local/Media -U '%' -N 2. put file.txt The SMB server is configured to allow guest access (guest ok = yes). I believe Dolphin is connecting as guest (I don't recall ever typing a username/password into Dolphin for this).
