Bug ID: 410310
Summary: Dolphin Create New doesn't create file
Product: dolphin
Version: 18.08.0
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: philipihmur...@hotmail.com
CC: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right-click within directory > Create New, select file type, e.g. text file.
2. Select file type, I tried text, HTML & one of the LibreOffice ones.
3. The input prompt field that normally contains "Text File" instead shows
"(1)".
4. Replace "(1)" with any file name & press OK.
OBSERVED RESULT
No file gets created. No hidden file (checked via Alt+dot), no files created on
desktop or as .desktop files.
EXPECTED RESULT
File should be created with name as input.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Debian 10 Buster
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.54.0
Qt Version: 5.11.3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- Able to create files successfully if I open e.g. KWrite & save as whatever
file name, so drive/partition is not the cause of the problem.
- Reboot solved the problem, it is working successfully today.
- Posted on LQ yesterday (probably not ideal place to post it, hence raising
here):
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=6019125#post6019125
- I've been using Buster since release day & yesterday was the only instance of
the above happening but was able to reproduce it yesterday (pre-powering off).
I've otherwise been able to create files successfully.
- One instance of copy & pasting a large file across partitions behaved
abnormally a few days prior to the above issue: no progress dialogue box
appeared & seemed to result in 0KB destination file. Not sure if worth raising
a bug for + I didn't notice 0KB issue for a few days.
