          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 72460
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: FILEOPEN: Can't access local ftp server
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.2.0.0.beta2
         Component: Libreoffice
           Product: LibreOffice

TESTING on LO 4.2.0.0.beta2 + Ubuntu 12.04.3
(with VSFTP 2.3.5 running on localhost)

When trying to repro bug 72416 I did the following:

- I ran a local FTP server and shoved a test ODT file up there
(simple-test-writer-document.odt -- contents unimportant)

- I accessed the ftp server on the command line using username 'anonymous' and
password 'anonymous':
ftp localhost

- Following repro instructions on bug 72416, here's the command I used to try
opening the file:
./DEBS/install/opt/libreofficedev4.2/program/soffice --norestore
ftp://localhost/simple-test-writer-document.odt

RESULT:

Get a dialog "Authentication required."

When I try to enter in the anonymous password ('anonymous' is already filled in
for the username) and press the Enter key, the dialog just refreshes.

If I check the FTP logs, I see the following entry:

Sat Dec  7 19:43:35 2013 [pid 2] CONNECT: Client "127.0.0.1"
Sat Dec  7 19:43:35 2013 [pid 1] [ftp] OK LOGIN: Client "127.0.0.1", anon
password "[email protected]"

If I try to specfiy the username and/or password on the command line like this,
the same error occurs:
./DEBS/install/opt/libreofficedev4.2/program/soffice --norestore
ftp://anonymous@localhost/simple-test-writer-document.odt
./DEBS/install/opt/libreofficedev4.2/program/soffice --norestore
ftp://anonymous:anonymous@localhost/simple-test-writer-document.odt

Using the GUI:

If I open the program and then try to access this file, I can't even get to the
'Authentication required' dialog with stock Ubuntu open dialog. With the
LibreOffice dialogs I have the same problem as described above.

Theoretically, one should be able to open documents on an FTP server using
either dialog:
