[Bug 181977] Re: Mutiple file transfers appear to cause libmtp to hang

[Jaakko Sipari]

Hi!

Just would like to mention I was able to reproduce this bug in Hardy.
Here are the steps:

1. Install mtpfs from the official Hardy repositories

$ sudo apt-get install mtpfs

2. Create mount point

$ mkdir /home/jaakko/mtpfs

3. Plug in my player via USB cable (Zen 8GB)

4. Mount the player

$ mtpfs /home/jaakko/mtpfs

5. Open nautilus to the mtpfs directory (which can be seen as a real
mounted filesystem in the left of the nautilus window!)

6. Browse to the /home/jaakko/mtpfs/Music directory with nautilus

7. Drag and drop a directory with about 10 songs and/or about
100megabytes to the Music directory

8. Watch as the copy fails after  ~5 songs / ~70 megabytes have been
copied

Nautilus pops out this error message:

  Error while copying "xxx.mp3".

  There was an error copying the file into /home/jaakko/mtpfs/Music/XXX.
  (details: Error writing to file: Operation not permitted)

9. Refresh the Music directory using F5 to see if something has been
copied

Now nautilus gives you this error:

  Couldn't display "/home/jaakko/mtpfs/Music".

  Error: Error stating file '/home/jaakko/mtpfs/Music': Transport endpoint is not connected
  Please select another viewer and try again.

9. Get pissed off, do "fusermount -u /home/jaakko/mtpfs", unplug the
player and start from step 3. again

NOTE: The songs that seem to be copied before the error in the File
transfer operation actually are copied.
