what does GError: Zugriff verweigert means?

[Sebastien Estienne (sebest)]

could you try the following patch:
edit file /usr/share/service-discovery-applet/plugins/nautilus.py line 46

Index: nautilus.py.in

German for "Access denied".

[Martin Schaaf (mascha)]

If I apply your patch I only get a point in the panel. If I remove the modification it starts with the normal style.

[Martin Schaaf (mascha)]

After latest update or editing the file you mentioned above (but not changing it) it doesn't crash any longer but nothing happen. The excpected nautilus view doesn't open.

[Sebastien Estienne (sebest)]

The error is an "access denied" trying to access the webdav share, and i didn't handle this error, that's why it crashed, i thought it was handled by nautilus itself.

when you type the url in nautilus itself, can you access the share?

[Martin Schaaf (mascha)]

Yes, I can it asks for a password. It display it under "Network" in "Got to" menu (translated from the german version).

[Sebastien Estienne (sebest)]

I think i found the issue:
i'm using the python equivalent to /usr/bin/gnome-open
and if you don't provide the exact credential in the url, it won't ask for the password or the username:

$ gnome-open dav://<email address hidden>:51526/
Error showing url: Access denied

so i replaced this by using nautilus, like in the following patch

[Martin Schaaf (mascha)]

Thanks this patch works great for me. Thank you for your help and fast response.

[Sebastien Estienne (sebest)]

Martin, thanx for reporting this bug.

Sebastian, could you please make a new release of s-d-a with this patch?

thank you
