Maybe we should merge together bug 113070 and bug 120951, or wait to see if upstream duplicates bugzilla #336113 with #270159 ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium Status: Needs Info = In Progress ** Bug watch added: Mozilla Bugzilla #336113 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336113 ** Also affects: firefox (upstream) via https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336113 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- firefox download manager doesn't work when target is on vfat filesystem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/113070 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 113070] Re: firefox download manager doesn't work when target is on vfat filesystem
Also, I noticed when downloading an attachment from my yahoo mail account a strange anomaly when the file was a text file named hah (no extension) -- yahoo said it was of type BIN. The file downloaded correctly but when the file system was vfat, the file was named hah.bin. When the download directory was on an ext3 filesystem, the file was downloaded properly as hah. I don't know if it's related (probably not), but it's annoying. The issue of adding a .bin suffix in *windows* partitions is been dealt upstream at [1]. In there you can see a couple of workarounds that imply changes in the fstab file (comment #23).

[Bug 113070] Re: firefox download manager doesn't work when target is on vfat filesystem
I have firefox configured to download to a directory named /ftp. $ ls -l /ftp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Jun 12 23:48 /ftp - /d/ftp $ mount ... /dev/sda5 on /d type vfat (rw,utf8,umask=02,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,quiet,shortname=winnt) $ ls -ld /d/ftp drwxrwxr-x 5 jrw jrw 4096 Jun 12 23:51 /d/ftp $ uname -a Linux nalini 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux firefox-help-about Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20061201 Firefox/2.0.0.4 (Ubuntu-feisty) visit http://directory.fsf.org/cpio.html select link ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/cpio/cpio-2.8.tar.gz $ ls -l /ftp/cpio* 06/12 23:56:45 $ ls -l cpio* -rwxrwxr-x 1 jrw jrw 0 Jun 12 23:51 /ftp/cpio-2.8.tar.gz So, the file is created but never populated and the download manager window doesn't appear, either. However, when I changed /ftp to point to an ext3 filesystem, the tar.gz file downloaded properly. When I created /ftp as a directory (rather than as a symlink), it also downloaded correctly -- obviously in this case /ftp was on an ext3 filesystem rather than on a vfat filesystem. The same thing happened when I set the download directory in Preferences to be on a vfat filesystem (without a symlink). Also, I noticed when downloading an attachment from my yahoo mail account a strange anomaly when the file was a text file named hah (no extension) -- yahoo said it was of type BIN. The file downloaded correctly but when the file system was vfat, the file was named hah.bin. When the download directory was on an ext3 filesystem, the file was downloaded properly as hah. I don't know if it's related (probably not), but it's annoying. Please let me know how I can help you debug this.
