[Bug 879475] Re: Linux DC++ deletes files

 

This might be due to DC++ bug #551184.  Specifically the comment from
eMTee which I can confirm can happen:

"Problem is that if the remote path is coincidently exists locally
(absolute or relative) it can trigger an unneeded move operation of a
complete local folder..."

Can anyone confirm if this occurs when you choose "Browse file list" on
the right click menu of a search result? It looks like it attempts to
execute the equivalent of:

mv  <search result path> ~/.dc++/FileLists/<filelist name>/

The 'search result path' is the value of the 'Path' column in the search
window of the selected row. If the 'search result path' happens to match
a local dir, it will be moved.

Title:
  Linux DC++ deletes files

Status in Linux DC++:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I can fully reproduce this bug every time. It started occurring after
  I did a download to my Music directory directly. I noticed the problem
  when the Music directory disappeared completely, it wasn't in the
  deleted files or anywhere to be found. Now the problem repeats itself,
  if I put anything in the Music directory and LinuxDC++ is running - I
  haven't yet worked out the trigger but it might be asking LinuxDC++ to
  download a file - it deletes the contents of the directory.  This bug
  is severe! Fortunately I had backups of my music but others might not
  be so lucky!

  If you can think of any tests I should run then please let me know.
