Bug ID: 363226
Summary: Kate crashes if session includes files on mapped drive
that has been disconnected
Product: kate
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: MS Windows
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: vtpr...@gmail.com
If a Kate session includes files that are located on a Windows mapped network
drive, Kate will crash if the network drive is disconnected. If the default
session includes such files, Kate will crash on startup, making it impossible
to open. The crash occurs if the remote computer goes offline or if you
disconnect the mapped drive on the Windows machine.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Map a network drive in Windows (you can even map a shared folder on the same
computer, e.g. \\127.0.0.1\C)
2. Open a file on the mapped drive in Kate
3. Press Sessions -> Save Session
4. Disconnect the mapped drive (right-click the drive in Explorer and press
disconnect)
Actual Results:
Kate crashes. Kate will crash on startup when attempting to reopen. To
workaround, you must remap the network drive.
Expected Results:
Kate does not crash and instead notifies user that file is no longer available.
Kate version 16.07.70 built from source on Windows using Visual Studio 2015.
