Screenshots of errors

Unable to "Save As" on Samba,"Windows Share",gvfs created from Nautilus

When trying to "Save As" to a "Windows Share" (gvfs) mounted with Nautilus in Ubuntu, three errors occur.

- The file is not created.

- Error messages appear.
-- "Error saving the document" "Nonexistent file"
-- "Error saving the document" "General Error." "General input/output error."

- Libreoffice can no longer be closed from the menu and must be Force Quit. Most menu features are now greyed out, including "About".

We are able to open and save existing files on the share with Libreoffice. Other applications, such as Sublime Text, are able to create new files and Save As.

It also appears that after we force quit, it leaves the lock files in place, which LO does initially successfully create on the share when opening an existing file. Does this mean that the file creation process for LO's lock/temp files is entirely different from how it access the share when trying to create or save normal files?

This appears to have been a problem for a long time, specific to shares mounted with these methods.
