Bug ID: 432156 Summary: KNewFileMenu: cannot create new file for remote protocols like ftp Product: frameworks-kio Version: 5.78.0 Platform: Neon Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kio-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: j...@kdenlive.org CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 135205 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=135205&action=edit Cannot create new file SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open an FTP location in Dolphin 2. Try to create a new folder or file OBSERVED RESULT The "File already exists" popup incorrectly shows up, and the "Ok" button is disabled, you cannot create files / folders EXPECTED RESULT You should be able to create new files / folders This is most likely fixed by changing the KIO::statDetails parameter in: https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/blob/master/src/filewidgets/knewfilemenu.cpp#L1212 >From the doc, KIO::statDetails cannot reliably check a file existence using http / ftp protocols. Using "SourceSide" as currently, when the existence cannot be determined, it is assumed to exist, so we cannot create the new file. Changing the parameter to DestinationSide, the file is assumed to not exist when it cannot be determined.
