[opensuse] konqueror ftp bug?
Hi I have the latest factory update and konqueror version 4.2.86 release 125 using KDE 4.2.98 (info from konq help menu) When downloading by ftp from a remote site to my own hard disk konq creates the folders but when file transfer starts it crashes or gives me another login prompt. The konq from KDE 3 (/opt/kde3/bin) works fine however big the file transfer is. I've searched bugzilla but can't find anything similar. Can anyone confirm this and whether it is OK to report bugs in factory via bugzilla? Also, where would I look for error messages from konq? Thanks.

Lynn That behavior would not surprise me at all in kde4 konqueror. The fish protocol is broken in kde4, but I thought that ftp was working without any problems. (not saying there are not new ftp problems) That place to report this is bugs.kde.org. I don't know how you "capture" the errors other than to run "strace -f /usr/bin/konqueror" from the command line and capture all of the output from konqueror. I would recommend you capture that information in konsole and then save the scroll-back and provide that along with your bug report against ftp in konqueror. If someone already has a bug open on it, then submit the scroll-back as an attachment to that bug to help the developers when they finally get around to thinking about looking into it. -- David C.

I came across this "fish protocol being broken in Dolphin/Konqi" yesterday in the forums, and to be honest it surprised me. Its been working well for me ever since I switched over to 4.3 RC2 (now RC3) at work and also home. The only problem is the "double authentication window" that comes up while accessing network elements outside of the LAN segment. That can be easily worked around though. -Anshul -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Well right now fish is "like a box of chocolates -- you never know what you are going to get..." Throughout kde4 is has been hit or miss. In konqueror, if it failed, then you could keep hitting the "refresh" button up to 25 times and fish would finally connect. After it connected, it would seem to be OK for that one site. However, you could try the machine right next to it on the LAN and get the "broken protocol" on the next try. Also, updates seem to "reset" the "works on this host logic" and you have to go through the "refresh until connect" scenario all over again. The file transfers over fish have also been a problem. Once you get connected and start and transfer, fish would fail during the transfer. The bug to look at is: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=189235 Over 87 posts and many duplicates consolidated in that one as well. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Hi and thanks for the reply. I have a Novell Bugzilla account but can't login to the kde Bugzilla account with it. Does this mean I have to have a separate Bugzilla account for KDE?

No Sweat, just go to bugs.kde.org, create an account (takes 30 seconds), your password will be mailed to you immediately and you can post the bug. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Hi the way to get a text file of the output that i have used before now is "strace -f konqueror 2>&1|tee koncs.out" I have just tested this it works ok on this box 11.2MS2 this will generate the text file koncs.out in the current dir HTH Pete .

You have probably figured this out already, but bzip2 koncs.out Will "replace" the file koncs.out with the compressed file koncs.out.bz2 bzip2 -k koncs.out Will "create" the file compressed koncs.out.bz2 while "keeping" the file koncs.out unchanged To compress multiple files (say koncs-1.out, koncs-2.out as a single bzip2 or gz tar file use the 'c' (create) option to tar: tar -cjf newkoncs.out.bz2 koncs* for gzip tar -czf newkoncs.out.bz2 koncs* (j is bzip, z is gzip, f says what follows next is the archive name) To extract the archives use 'x' instead of 'c'. To look at the files in the archive use 't' instead of 'x'. If you really want to look at tight compression try the newer xz compression routine. You will need the newer tar, and the tar options for xz compression is 'J'. (can save up to 50% beyond bz2 compression) You can simply download the new tar source file and compile it, then replace your existing /bin/tar file with the new one. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Yes, that was frustrating at first. Most articles and man pages are written for developers not normal humans. That's where tldp.org tries to fill the gap with howto articles (some really quite good), otherwise google "command tutorial howto" works pretty well. Most people (me included), just need short howtos that cover basic operations that don't say much more that "Look dummy, to do abc, just type xyz in the terminal..." After you have that, then the man pages start to make sense. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
