RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

inclusion.

FYI this works properly with http://www.root.cz, started to think it's not our fault.
Comment 4 Tomas Pelka 2010-05-26 15:00:35 UTC 
Confirmed, seems that only google is gvfs-unfriendly.  We can close this issue as NOTABUG probably.

This is gnome-vfs2, if it was gvfs, we get different error message but consistent erratic behaviour:

$ gvfs-copy http://www.google.com file:///tmp/google2.html
Error copying file http://www.google.com: Message Corrupt

Looking at this more to exclude the possibility of our fault.
Comment 6 RHEL Program Management 2010-07-15 14:19:56 UTC 
This issue has been proposed when we are only considering blocker
issues in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. It has
been denied for the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.

** If you would still like this issue considered for the current
release, ask your support representative to file as a blocker on
your behalf. Otherwise ask that it be considered for the next
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. **

This works for me now, looks like it was a temporary server fault on Google side.
Can you please retest and close if not valid?
Comment 8 Tomas Pelka 2011-01-24 11:29:16 UTC 
Works for me too.

Closing as NOTABUG.
