Description Oliver Ilian 2015-06-02 14:12:15 UTC
Description of problem:
file-roller can only be opened once in RHEL 7. If you try to open a second archive while file-roller is open, nothing happens. You can also not compress/uncompress another file/folder while file-roller is running.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
file-roller-nautilus-3.8.3-3.el7.x86_64
file-roller-3.8.3-3.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
Every time you do a file-roller action while file-roller is open already.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open file-roller
2. double click on an archive

Actual results:
Second file-roller is not opening

Expected results:
File-roller should support multiple instances.

Additional info:
Starting a second file-roller in a Terminal gives:

[ohaessle@ohaessle ~]$ file-roller 
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Application does not handle command line arguments

Comment 1 Vadim Rutkovsky 2015-06-02 14:18:12 UTC
Still actual in RHEL7.2 (file-roller-3.14.2-2.el7.x86_64) with slightly different result:

While Archive Manager window is opened one cannot mount archives anymore (its a default action in Nautilus), while a different Archive Manager window can be opened via 'Open With Application' context menu

Comment 2 Vitezslav Humpa 2015-06-17 09:48:43 UTC
Either of these does not seem to be an issue anymore with the latest 7.2 compose containing the file-roller-3.14.2-2.el7. As to c#1, tough to say, though perhaps a gvfs update for #1229178 has fixed this issue as well.

Comment 4 Vitezslav Humpa 2015-09-01 10:13:47 UTC
Re-tested on official build of file-roller-3.14.2-5.el7. Neither of the issues described in c#0 and c#1 is present. Moving to verified.
