Description of problem: Files which are residing in a folder on a different partition can not be moved to the Trash if the folder is accessed using a symlink. Nautilus throws: Error 'Not on the same file system' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-vfs2-smb-2.16.2-6.el5_5.1.i386.rpm (latest available) How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a test file in /partition2/foo/file.txt 2. Create a symlink to /partition2 on your desktop 3. Double click on the symlink on the desktop, then double click on the foo folder and try to delete file.txt Actual results: The file is not moved to the Trash folder. Nautilus throws: Error 'Not on the same file system' Expected results: Successfully move the file into the Trash folder. Additional info: If the /partition2/foo folder is accessed directly, without using the symlink, the file can be successfully moved to Trash.
Still reproducible.
Still couldn't reproduce this bug on my system. Packages are stock nautilus-2.16.2-7.el5 and gnome-vfs2-2.16.2-6.el5_5.1. Files are physically located in /data2 and symlinked to desktop, both the mountpoint and a subdirectory containing test file. I can delete anything from symlinked folders, giving me the 'The file "tmp" cannot be moved to the trash.' message (i.e. not trashing but deleting directly).
I can delete directly (using SHIFT+DEL), but moving to trash fails (just DEL). gnome-vfs2-2.16.2-8.el5 nautilus-2.16.2-7.el5 What do you need from my side in order to troubleshoot this?
I'm also experiencing a similar issue. When moving a file from one NFS share to another I receive: "error not on the same file system." I'm running: gnome-vfs2-2.16.2-6.el5_5.1.x86_64.rpm
