@wxl Walter, While testing Ubuntu 21.04 on the RASP PI4 I decided to install the Lubuntu desktop and then tried PCManFM-QT and then the opening of the Samba share files worked fine with no error messages. I then played around with a few PC boxes and got the same results after installing the Lubuntu desktop on the Ubuntu build.
Ref your comments in #20 re file locks I agree - but in this case I am running a private LAN with no other users so the locked file is an incorrect message i.e these files are not in use by anyone - so either LibreOffice or PCManFM-QT are sending the wrong message to each other.. will do some further testing and comparisons with other file managers - -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875717 Title: Opening file from Samba share results in Document in Use Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This bug is related to bug # 1430531.
