Bug ID: 501697
Summary: Can't create symlinks over sftp using Dolphin
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 24.12.3
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
Reporter: s404.gordon at gmail.com
CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Can't create symlink using dolphin, but can create it using internal kio
mountpoint
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to sftp server (I just typed sftp://username@hostname/ to the
address bar)
2. Go to RMB Menu->Create New->Link to File or Directory
3. Fill in symlink name and file name, press OK
OBSERVED RESULT
Symlink is created just fine
EXPECTED RESULT
I get "Could not create symlink sftp://username@hostname/path. Please check
permissions."
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Fedora Linux 41
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.11.0
Qt Version: 6.8.2
Kernel Version: 6.13.6-200.fc41.x86_64 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If I open any file in non-kde app, kio creates a mountpoint in
`/run/user/USERID/kio-RANDOMLETTERS/sftp/HOSTNAME/` and I can create a symlink
using `ln -s` just fine, so I think that's not KIO issue.
