Sebastien, bug #1416891 is about updating 12.04 LTS. to 1.20.3. I sure would like to test it, but where can we get the fix?
The problem I see occurs when the server times out and closes the connection, looking like this on our side (netstat) tcp 53 0 192.168.0.20:44879 xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:ftp CLOSE_WAIT the 53 bytes to be read from the Recv-Q contain: 421 Timeout - try typing a little faster next time gvfs-ftpd should close that connection (or read the bytes) but it tries to use it instead. The operation gets an error and, depending on which it is, may or may not close the connection and clear the error. The ls ~/.gvfs/FTP* command gets the connections in this state (input flushed and output blocked) tcp 0 7 192.168.0.20:44879 62.210.182.224:ftp CLOSE_WAIT This is not enough: the ls ~/.gvfs/FTP* command must be issued twice and the connection closes on second time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/410288 Title: Nautilus does not handle FTP timeouts well Status in gvfs: Fix Released Status in Nautilus: Invalid Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: gvfs I connected to a FTP server via gvfs in Nautilus. After some time the FTP connection is closed automatically, as I observed with wireshark (421 No transfer timeout (300 seconds): closing control connection). After that, everytime I open a folder on the FTP server I get only an "unexpected end of stream" error. To access the FTP server again I have to disconnect and then connect again. Nautilus does not seem to know that the connection closed. A better behaviour IMHO would be to try and reconnect to the FTP server.
