Bug ID: 506282
Summary: Dolphin does not report I/O failure when copying
multiple files
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version First 25.04.2
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
Reporter: ulterno at gmail.com
CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When copying multiple files, if an I/O failure occurs Dolphin will not report
that and silently fail for that specific file, unlike when a single file is
copied where Dolphin will inform the user.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Copy a directory with files at multiple levels in the directory tree.
2. Induce an I/O error ?? It was possible for me because my HDD is going bad.
3. Wait for all operations to finish and see the notifications
OBSERVED RESULT
No notification regarding failed file transfers
EXPECTED RESULT
Some kind of notification indicating failed file transfers
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Dolphin: 25.04.2
KDE Frameworks: 6.15.0
Qt: Using 6.9.1 and built against 6.9.1
EndeavourOS (Wayland)
Build ABI: x86_64-little_endian-lp64
Kernel: linux 6.15.3-arch1-1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When getting an I/O failure on a single file copy, I got a message box from
Dolphin saying "Could not read file " followed by the full file path. Something
similar for a multiple transfer is desirable.
Setting to a higher priority because if a user does a Copy and a Delete Source
operation, they might lose data.
