[Bug 655554] [NEW] Dolphin 1.5 can't paste files to remote smb folder

[Dimitris Kalamaras]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dolphin

After upgrading to Kubuntu 10.10 beta, Dolphin can't paste files to
remote smb folders (Windows shares).

Using Konqueror 4.5.1, I can paste the same files into the same remote
smb folder with no problem whatsoever.

Moreover, up to Kubuntu 10.04, Dolphin worked like a charm and copied
any file gracefully (into the same shared folder).

No settings were changed in our file server recently.

Here's my workflow where the problem occurs:

1. Have a Windows PC called 'syros' to serve some folder, i.e. Data
2. Open Dolphin, press Ctrl+L, enter smb://username:password@syros/DATA
3. Files are displayed. 
4. Copy a local file (i.e. filename.xls) and paste it into the the remote folder.
5. Dolphin creates a pseudofile but displays a message like this:

"Could not write to file smb://dkalamaras@syros/DATA/filename.xls"


The strange thing is that I can still create remote files from Dolphin (right click while viewing the remote folder > Create New > Text file) and save any of them.


Any ideas?
