Bug ID: 418685
Summary: Trying to Backup the file you are working on.
Product: kmymoney
Version: 5.0.6
Platform: MS Windows
OS: MS Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: file
Assignee: kmymoney-devel@kde.org
Reporter: okanagan...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When you click on [File] then "Backup...", in the (Mount Point:) box. There is
a "/" at the start of the path description.
example: if I want to backup to (G:/Financial_Folder/KMyMoney-BkUp) location,
By default there is a "/" character coded to appear at the start of the
location.
[/G:/Financial_Folder/KMyMoney-BkUp] it should be without the backslash "/"
character in front of the path.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have the file you are working on open.
2. Click on [File] then "Backup..."
3. Click on [Choose] button, select the location you want.
4. Click on [OK]
OBSERVED RESULT
The Error box pops up "Error copying file to device" Then when you click on the
[OK] button, the Error box closes, but you do not have a backup.
EXPECTED RESULT
When doing a "Backup" there should not be a "/" backslash in front of the
location selection.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
KDE Frameworks 5.47.0
Qt 5.9.1 (built against 5.9.1)
The windows windowing system
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am not a programmer, but have worked a bit on databases. I think somewhere in
the code the "/" is inserted/hard coded to be placed in front of the path
selection.
Note: If you take the "/" at the front of the path location out, the backup
works fine. Unfortunately some users I think would not figure that out.
