            Bug ID: 416647
           Summary: KBibTex unable to save files on a remote server via
                    sftp
           Product: KBibTeX
           Version: 0.9
          Platform: Neon Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Loading/saving files
          Assignee: fisc...@unix-ag.uni-kl.de
          Reporter: joan.herr...@urv.cat
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

Remote access to a server via sftp. Remote .bib files are loaded and,
apparently, can be modified and then saved. However, the remote file is not
modified. Checked that the remote file has read-write permissions for all users
enabled.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open .bib file on remote server
2. Modify the contents of the file
3. Save the file, either click to the icon or use Ctrl + S shortcut
4. Apparently the modified file has been saved.



OBSERVED RESULT

The time stamp of the file in the server directory has been updated.
However, a check on the contents of the remote file (via terminal+vim editor)
shows that the file was not modified, it keeps the original contents.


EXPECTED RESULT

A modified file with the contents as visualized in KBibTeX


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Neon 5.17 User Edition

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

When KBibTeX is started from terminal, as a result of the Save action (on the
remote file) the following message appears in the terminal:

kbibtex.parts: watchableFilename is Empty
kbibtex.io: Don't know how to encode Unicode char "0x0301"
