Description Konstantinos Tampouris 2015-01-26 20:50:32 UTC
I use Nautilus -> "Browse Network" to connect to a remote computer using sftp (OpenSSH) and normal password authentication.

The first time I try, I'm able connect to the remote computer without problems.
Then I unmount the share using the eject button.

If I try to reconnect to the share using "Browse Network", I get the message:
"Could not display "". The file is of an unknown type"

(Some times reconnecting to the share succeeds once, but after disconnecting again and trying to reconnect, the above message is displayed.)

If, after this, I try to connect to the remote computer using "Connect to Server", Nautilus crashes with the message:
"ERROR:nautilus-bookmark.c:349:nautilus_bookmark_connect_file: assertion failed: (!nautilus_file_is_gone (bookmark->details->file))"

If I open Nautilus again, then I am able to connect to the remote computer without problems (the first time) using "Browse Network".
