[Bug 1430531] [NEW] FILEOPEN: Opening file from Samba share produce Document in Use dialog (~/.gvfs or mount.cifs)

 

Public bug reported:

This bug is somehow related to other -  LibO 72337 [1].

I'm on Ubuntu 12.04.5 with all updates and LibreOffice 3.5.7.2 
Build ID: 350m1(Build:2)
(libreoffice 1:3.5.7-0ubuntu7) from official repository.
The problem exists in more modern versions of LibreOffice from PPA (3.6.6-0ubuntu1~precise1~ppa1 , 4.0.4~rc2-0ubuntu1~precise1 , 4.1.6-0ubuntu1~precise1~ppa1 , 4.2.8~rc2-0ubuntu1~precise1 , 4.3.6~rc2-0ubuntu1~precise1 , 4.4.1~rc2-0ubuntu1~precise1).

Steps to reproduce:
1. I have shared Public folder (read write, allow guest) from other Ubuntu 12.04.5 laptop using nautilus-share (0.7.3-1ubuntu2), placed test.odt file in it.
2a. I navigate Nautilus on other laptop to smb://laptop/public, clicked 'Open in Terminal here' (or launch terminal and "cd ~/.gvfs/public\ on\ laptop").  Run "libreoffice test.odt" in terminal.
2b. I navigate Nautilus on other laptop to smb://laptop/public, clicked on 'test.odt' file.
3. Got "Document in Use" window with text:

   Document file 'test.odt' is locked for editing by:

   Unknown User

   Open document read-only or open a copy of the document for editing.


   Open Read-Only     Open Copy     Cancel

4a. If I click 'Open Read-Only' the document is opened in read-only.
4b. If I click 'Open Copy' the "Untitled 1" document is opened.
4c. Cancel closes this window.


Expected results:
   The "test.odt" files is opened in read-write mode, user can edit it.

Actual results:
   User can't edit original document (see pp. 3-4 above).


This functionality is essential. Please fix this bug.

Notes:
  If I try to open document with the command 'libreoffice smb://laptop/public/test.odt' I run into other bug (bug 1214352).
  If I use windows SMB/CIFS server I can open and edit document from share.
  My test results are located in Google Drive Table (  http://goo.gl/jY9Ubj  ).
