Please verify weather or not this is still a problem.

[Bug 310598] Re: can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share
this bug still exists. if i access a file share on my airport extreme, i can copy files but not folders. if i go through terminal to ~/.gvfs/whatever i can do a cp -R to copy the folder. but it doesn't work through nautilus. -- can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310598 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-user-share in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 310598] Re: can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share
I wonder why this bug is still set invalid in gvfs. I explaned that you misunderstood what I was doing. I never had tried to share a file that's already been shared! I only tried to copy the folder dav://gu...@192.168.1.100:53811/Musik to my home folder. That did not work, the folder was not found. It was no problem to copy the same folder from the POSIX compatible alternative address ~/.gvfs/WebDAV on 192.168.1.100/Musik to my home folder. That is why I am convinced that this is a parsing problem in the gvfs frontend for WebDAV. -- can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310598 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is the registrant for gvfs. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 310598] Re: can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share
I am so sorry. I don't know how to explain what I really mean. The problem is not half as complicated as what you describe, it is very simple. I never tried to share a file that's already been shared. I totally agree with you that this is nonsense! In the folder Public (or Öffentlich, for it's a german version) in my home folder there is a folder Musik which contains some mp3 files. That's all for the server, no shared files are concerned there. On the client the folder appears with the syntax dav://gu...@192.168.1.100:53811/Musik. Single files from that folder can easily copied from that folder to other folders on the client (downloaded), bot not the whole folder. That's all. But it is not normal. Using the other (optional and extra) POSIX compatible access way, the same folder can be copied with no problems. That's why I think it might be a parsing problem in the standard Syntax dav://. In Samba, copying folders with the syntax smb:// does work, so it must be something else than the double slash that causes the problem. -- can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310598 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is the registrant for gvfs. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 310598] Re: can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share
In gvfs there is always a second way to access published folders (it is the same for samba shares). Yes, there is, but it's also optional and extra. We mount GVFS shares through FUSE when possible, which allows legacy and/or POSIX-only applications to access files on our virtual file system. On the client, the shares are published with the syntax dav://. If you simply try to copy one of the shared folders to the client (which is nothing but a normal download), it does not work, and you get the error message not found. Copying (downloading) single files in the same way works fine. This is entirely another bug, likely 267642 or 227852. Since gnome-user-share is meant to be a tool for everyone, the default way must work without any sofisticated workarounds! The problem is that gnome-user-share does not understand GIO, and thusly cannot use GVFS. You can use it with the FUSE mounted daemon, as mentioned above, but it's generally bad behavior to depend on anything in that folder since it very well may not exist on all configurations. But as I said, I also think it's nonsense to share a file that's already been shared. -- can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310598 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is the registrant for gvfs. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 310598] Re: can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share
Well, English not beeing my native language, I certainly did not explain very well. Sorry. The problem is not at all sharing a foreign share. It is a client problem. On the client, the shares are published with the syntax dav://. If you simply try to copy one of the shared folders to the client (which is nothing but a normal download), it does not work, and you get the error message not found. Copying (downloading) single files in the same way works fine. It must be a gvfs problem on the client. In gvfs there is always a second way to access published folders (it is the same for samba shares). You can find them in a hidden folder .gvfs in your home directory. There the access is possible without the double slash via ~/.gvfs/WebDAV on IP. If this way is used to access the shared folders, they can be copied or moved to the client without any problems. That is why I still think that gvfs is affected.

[Bug 310598] Re: can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share
This might be a bug in the backend of WebDAV in gvfs. Accessing the share with the default syntax dav://... all folders can be found and opened, but not copied or moved. Using the alternate acces by the hidden folder ~/.gvfs/WebDAV on IP, every folder can be copied without problems. I can't test whether this problem is general with WebDAV or specific to gnome-user-share. The problem does certainly not affect GnomeVFS, but gvfs.

[Bug 310598] Re: can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share
To be honest I'm not sure it's 100% a good idea to be sharing something that's already on a foreign share, but the problem likely exists that gnome-user-share doesn't understand or support GVFS locations (and understandably so). The fuse mount works because it's emulating a POSIX- type file system. ** Changed in: gnome-vfs Status: New = Invalid ** Changed in: gvfs Status: New = Invalid -- can't copy or move folders with gnome-user-share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310598 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is the registrant for gvfs. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
