Description Tim Lee 2002-11-20 19:56:16 UTC
Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
are doing.
Description of Problem:
When trying to open an other user's folder without a GAL server defined,
the Opening Folder dialog comes up and just sits there ping ponging back
and forth. 

Expected Results:
Should get an error message that you need a GAL server.

We are past UI freeze for 2.3. Moving this to 2.5
Comment 2 shakti 2005-10-07 10:16:50 UTC
Now it is not reproducible. Now the 'Subscribed to other User's Folder' is
implemented as plugins. With this changes I think it has become obsolete.

Poornima, could you please verify it?

Proposed patch

This shows an appropriate error message to the user.
Comment 4 Sushma Rai 2006-02-13 06:33:47 UTC
Error string is has typos. 
 <error id="gc-missing-error" type="error">
  <_primary>Unsupported operation</_primary>
  <_secondary>Either the URI is incorrect, or the Global Catalog server is not reachable.</_secondary>
 </error>

would look better.

And also correct fix is having a error code for no GAL case and handling it.
Since it needs a ABI change, marking it for future again.
