[Bug 1670683] Re: Nautilus ignores "Documents" if it is a symlink to a NFS share
I created a test setup on a fresh Ubuntu 18.04 sudo mkdir /m /mnt/m /m/doc sudo touch /m/doc/test.txt sudo apt install nfs-kernel-server sudo echo "/m 0.0.0.0/24 (rw)" >> /etc/exports sudo systemctl restart nfs-kernel-server There should be no error. sudo mount -t nfs 127.0.0.1:/m /mnt/m Here neither. A `ls /mnt/doc` should contain the "test.txt" file. Now create a new user "tester" and log in via Gnome, so that the standard directories are created. back as admin user, delete the "/home/tester/Documents" folder, and do a ln -s /mnt/m/doc /home/tester/Documents Now I tested nautilus - and it worked. So IMHO this bug can be closed, at least for 18.04 it is working correctly now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670683 Title: Nautilus ignores "Documents" if it is a symlink to a NFS share To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1670683/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Is that still an issue in newer versions? Is the folder showing if you quit/restart nautilus? ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670683 Title: Nautilus ignores "Documents" if it is a symlink to a NFS share To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1670683/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Additional info: the NFS share is mounted using /etc/fstab - so it should be mounted and available long way before GNOME/Unity/Nautilus starts -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670683 Title: Nautilus ignores "Documents" if it is a symlink to a NFS share To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1670683/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
