Title:
Nautilus doesn't show an error message when trying to open a directory
without execute permission while logged in to a ssh server
Status in Nautilus:
New
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
While logged to a ssh server using Nautilus and you double-click to
open a directory that the current user doesn't have execute
permissions, nautilus opens the directory and shows an empty directory
instead of showing an error message. There's no way to tell if the
directory is actually empty or if the user doesn't have the necessary
permissions.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Log in to the remote server using ssh in a terminal
$ ssh username@server
1) Create a directory
$ mkdir test
2) Create a file inside that directory
$ cd test
$ touch file
3) Revoke the execute permission on that directory
$ cd ..
$ chmod -x test
4) Open the ssh server using Nautilus
File -> Connect to Server...
5) Open that directory using Nautilus
What I expected:
Nautilus should show some kind of visual clue that the user doesn't have
the necessary permissions to open that directory.
What happened instead:
Nautilus didn't gave a warning or error message and showed me an empty
directory which is misleading.
