[Bug 234532] Re: gvfs-sftp: openoffice can't open or save files
Confirmed this actually is a bug. If you try to connect to an sftp that is the same user/id on another machine it works, but if the user/id doesn't match it has problems and does not work. It just happened to work for me before since I was connecting to another machine where my username and userid matched the current machine.

I think this may be fixed in the hardy-proposed debs. At least I can no longer reproduce the problem. It does ask for a password but then can open and save files. Please try this version and let me know if it resolves the problem for you. Thanks!

You may be correct that this is openoffice since it happens in all distros of late that I tried. But, and I know these things do not make for exciting reading, if you read all the entries this is not an "inconvenience" but a bug since it not only asks you but DOES NOT WORK. It errors out comes back with no user name no where to type a name and just does not work. ? -- gvfs-sftp: openoffice can't open or save files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

"alfred_nutile: I have to now show people things like Freenx or setup vpn so people can work off site easily. Where as before I was able to say ssh (secure one port) and you have remote access. Now ssh and ftp are useless to work from with Openoffice and Nautilus." Exactly, we use ssh for almost everything, for local access and remote. We are targeting SME with not so many users, less than a hundred client computers on a local network. Using ssh for everything makes a transparent computer environment, users does not have to have in mind if the network is airbourne, if they work on a LAN, to a branch-office, from home or mobile. -- gvfs-sftp: openoffice can't open or save files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 234532] Re: gvfs-sftp: openoffice can't open or save files
This is how the problem are triggered: Context: Standard Ubuntu 8.04 (with Gnome) installed on the Client (with OpenOffice and ubuntu-desktop installed), Ubuntu 6.06 or greater installed in the server with openssh-server installed 1) On the client, connect a directory to the client from the server using the Places-menu-system 2) Drag and drop some OpenOffice-documents and ascii-text-documents to the mounted share on the server 3) Fire up OpenOffice and Gedit 4) Using the Gnome Open dialogue: try to open, change and save one of the text-documents using gedit 5) Using the Gnome Open dialogue: try to open, change and save one of the openoffice-documents using openoffice On every machine I have tested this, step 5 stopped due to an extra password dialogue I don't know if this is a bug in gvfs-sftp, the Gnome-keyring-system, the OpenOffice-gnome-addition or else (fat fingers). But I know gvfs-sftp is new in Ubuntu 8.04 and this configuration worked like charm from 6.06 to 7.04 and with a few gliches in 7.10 (reinstall helped) . If the new gvfs-sftp require changes that is not done in the OpenOffice- Gnome-addition, or if its ment that the api used in OpenOffice-gnome- addition could stay untouched and the bug are located to gvfs or the keyring are a question which I don't have much to add. -- gvfs-sftp: openoffice can't open or save files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 234532] Re: gvfs-sftp: openoffice can't open or save files
the low setting is on the gvfs task which is likely not valid anyway since that seems to be an openoffice issue, the bug doesn't have a clear description and easy steps to trigger the issue and the openoffice maintainer didn't look at the issue yet but the openoffice task settings will be change when he will look at the issue -- gvfs-sftp: openoffice can't open or save files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I agree about "Why is this low" basically my main selling point to remote office, etc is gone. I have to now show people things like Freenx or setup vpn so people can work off site easily.

Why is this low? Its a showstopper for Ubuntu-installations that uses an Ubuntu-server instead of Microsoft-servers and VPN.

[Bug 234532] Re: gvfs-sftp: openoffice can't open or save files
Sebastien Bacher: We use an Ubuntu-server and ssh/sftp as a fileserver. Accessing (open and save) files thru the Gnome VFS-system works fine with "real" Gnome applications, but not with OpenOffice. (When OpenOffice tries to open or save files it starts a password dialogue which seems not to be connected with any Gnome underlying system, not the keyring system nor the Gnome open dialogue / ssh password dialogue. Trying to give userid and password does not do any good) This is an issue that is (for us) new after upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04 on the client side. On server-side we still have Ubuntu 6.06 and Ubuntu 7.10. Alfred_nutile: we have this configuration working at us and several customers using 7.04 and 7.10, but have had some problems in 7.10 with some client-computers that we upgraded from 7.04, after a reinstall it started working as it should. -- gvfs-sftp: openoffice can't open or save files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Same here in the problem world. Nautilus can mount/use an sftp connection, kate, gedit etc all use it fine. But the moment I open a file in OpenOffice from this sftp location Open Office asks me for username and password which NEVER works. The 2nd time it comes back asking again but this time the username (hardcoded can not type it) is empty. I think this has not worked since Fiesty? I was hoping Hardy and the new files system would help but same problem.
