[Bug 481197] Re: unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server
The bug is old and Ubuntu changed quite a lot since, there has also been no activity here nor similar reports. Closing since we believe the issue as described is deprecated but feel free to file a new report if you still have problems in recent Ubuntu versions. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/481197 Title: unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/481197/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 481197] Re: unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server
I have exactly the same problem on a brand new install of Ubuntu 11.10 when I try to "Browse Network". All my shares are visible from Windows machines and those running Ubuntu 11.04. I get "Unable to mount location - Failed to retrieve share list from server" when I try to access a shareon a Ubuntu 11.10 machine (which is visible from Windows 7), or a share on a Window 7 machine. Bizarely I can actually see shares on a WIndows 2003 server when I try to connect from the Ubuntu 11.10 machine! To repeat the previous comment, testing interworking with Windows and fixing bugs in this area should be a top priority - Ubuntu is useless without connectivity to the rest of the universe. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/481197 Title: unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/481197/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 481197] Re: unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server
How do we raise the importance of this bug? This is ridiculous. Having
browsed for hours looking for a fix, my machine intermittently but
usually never finds shares. I have Windows, Linux (embedded NAS device),
and mac. Why aren't they showing up on a brand new install of 10.10? Yes
I can mount shares manually, but I don't want to nor should I have to
when there is a NETWORK link that should take me to the appropriate list
of available shares. {end rant}

[Bug 481197] Re: unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server
I can reproduce this out of the box on my home network. I just bought a WD MyBook World II 4TB NAS which supports CIFS. 1) connect NAS to network 2) open Places->Network 3) Click "Windows Network" Expected result out of the box would be that the NAS shares appear and that I am asked for user name and password to access it. This is really disappointing.

[Bug 481197] Re: unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server
OK, I was able to reproduce this right now like this: 1) HERON had a static IP address. 2) Connecting with nautilus worked fine. 3) I switched HERON over to DHCP, so it got a new IP (192.168.1.112). 4) I tried connecting with nautilus but got: "Sorry, could not display all the contents of "Windows shares on heron": DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken." 5) After that message, browsing any Windows shares was buggy... opened up gedit (???) trying to access smb:/// 6) I logged out and back in to restart nautilus. 7) Tried to connect to nautilus, and got the "unable to mount" popup. Here's my xsession-errors. Oddly /var/log/samba/log.heron didn't contain any entries from today. ** Attachment added: ".xsession-errors" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/42794906/.xsession-errors -- unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/481197 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

David: Did the issue return? If so, could you please try to catch something like an error message? You could look in e.g. ~/.xsession- errors and in /var/log/samba/log.HERON.

[Bug 481197] Re: unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server
I can also reproduce this with nautilus 1:2.28.1-0ubuntu3 on Karmic 64. Accessing other (Ubuntu) computers on my network works fine, but trying to access one specific one gives this error. I don't have very good reproduction steps right now, but I think it might have to do with me rebooting the machine I'm trying to connect to. Possible nautilus is using an old address or something? Not sure about this. Either way, smb://HERON/ gives the error, while smb://192.168.1.112/ connects as it should. wbinfo -N=HERON gives the correct IP, 192.168.1.112. I have been able to connect to HERON before, it's just not working this morning. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed -- unable to mount location - failed to retrieve share list from server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/481197 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we can't fix it because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem. We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures. At a minimum, we need: 1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem, 2. the behavior you expected, and 3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
