"Create new folder" fails in remote locations in certain condition
Last modified: 2009-02-27 13:50:47 UTC
Please describe the problem: Hi, "Create new folder" fails in remote locations (I've only tried ftp) when another folder with nautilus-default-name (like previously created with nautilus) exists in that location. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open an ftp site with nautilus (probably other remote locations like ssh are also affected). 2. Create a folder without changing its default name. 3. Try to create another folder. Actual results: An error dialog appears saying something like "It could not create the new folder because you don't have write permission on destination", which is false as I can create and rename files on destination. Expected results: The folder should be created same as in local locations (adding incremental numbers to the default name so it doesn't conflict with previously created folders), if that is not possible then at least the error dialog should say that's already a file with same name on the folder instead of wrongly saying I don't have write permission. Does this happen every time? Yes Other information: This is with nautilus CVS head.
Confirming, this is still valid after the GIO transition (2.23.4 here).
