If this is the problem, it could be in how share/shareplugin.cpp calls:
QUrl dir =
QUrl::fromLocalFile(config()->getString(QStringLiteral("incoming_path"),
defaultDownloadPath));
I don't think this does anything with "~" in the path, and it's unclear if QUrl
understands a "~" in a file URL, and then KIO::mkpath(dir) fails. (As an aside,
with decent language support for typing, it should be impossible to pass an
unparsed path string with ~, $HOME, %1 or whatever into a function that takes
an O.S. path -- rewrite it in Rust ;-) .)

I think it uses QStandardPaths::DownloadLocation which defaults to
"~/Downloads".
If I run `/usr/libexec/kdeconnectd --replace` in a terminal (I can never
remember how to view qWarning() output), sending a file from Android prints:
2024-05-26T17:19:51 default: couldn't create QUrl("file:~/Downloads")
2024-05-26T17:19:51 default: couldn't create QUrl("file:~/Downloads")
2024-05-26T17:19:52 default: QNetworkReplyImplPrivate::error: Internal
problem, this method must only be called once.
2024-05-26T17:19:52 default: QIODevice::write (QFile,
"~/Downloads/MYIMAGEFILE.jpg"): device not open
...
Hope this helps.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=450905 skierpage changed: What|Removed |Added CC||skierp...@gmail.com --- Comment #9 from skierpage --- This happened to me today. I think the last time I transferred Android -> Linux and it worked might have been May 8. My behavior is a little different. I share a picture from Google Photos or Google Files and quickly get an Android notification from KDE Connect version 1.30.1 "Failed sending file to fedlaptop", while KDE Connect 24.02-2 on my laptop pops up a "Receiving file" progress notification that never completes. But unlike @TraceyC, I don't see any partial files. I Force stop'd KDE Connect on Android and restarted, and now sending files results in a fast notification "Receiving file (Failed) Received incomplete file: Error opening file:~/Documents/temp/: No such file or directory." I ran strace on the kconnectd PID and saw lines like: [pid 2402] statx(AT_FDCWD, "~/Documents/temp/2024-05-26_SFJAZZ_Holland_Potter_Hussain.png", AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT|AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT, STATX_ALL, 0x7fffd73ee8d0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) Hold on, syscalls don't know about '~' for home directory! WORKAROUND: After I went into System Settings > KDE Connect > Share and receive > Configure and changed the "Save files in" path to a full path with no '~' (i.e. /home/MYUSERNAME/SOME/PATH), sending files worked! People, try this. It seems the fix in kdeconnect is to expand ~ before handing the path to lower-level software. (Or, worse, disallow ~ in the file chooser dialog.) I've used KDE Connect so long I can't remember what its default Save path was, but until it failed I hadn't changed it for months. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=450905 TraceyC changed: What|Removed |Added Status|REPORTED|CONFIRMED CC||kde...@tlcnet.info Ever confirmed|0 |1 --- Comment #4 from TraceyC --- I was able to reproduce a similar problem testing #452710 1. On my Android, I opened KDE Connect and selected Send Files 2. From the DCIM folder I selected 6 png files 3. Tapped Select Result: On the Android, KDE Connect reports "Failed sending 6 of 6 files to " On the laptop, KDE Connect says Receiving file 6 files to Downloads I attempted to transfer one text file, 67.21 KB 67.21 KB = 65.634765625 KiB In Dolphin, the file was present in the Download folder with a size of 65.6IiB The notification pop up had a bar that just kept going back and forth. Inspecting the file, it looked complete I force closed KDE Connect. Attempting to send the same file a second time also succeeded and this time the laptop notification showed the transfer as complete. Another text file sent completed normally. After that, I was able to successfully send 6 jpg files from the phone's DCIM folder on the SD Card (also from DCIM on internal storage) Sending 12 images was successful, as was 30 In summary: The first few attempts at sending files succeeded but the phone said it failed and the laptop notification hung After force closing KDE Connect and restarting it, file transfers worked as normal, no error on Android and the notification did the right thing -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
