Bug ID: 498428
Summary: Empty Share tab in Dolphin on non-local account
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 21.12.3
Platform: Kubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: matthias.zi...@gmail.com
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The "Share" tab in folder properties is empty preventing me from creating a
samba share this way using a non-local login user.
When starting dolphin from the console the following error appears when
switching to the "Share" tab:
> qrc:/org.kde.filesharing.samba/qml/main.qml:39: TypeError: Cannot read
> property 'inSamba' of null
To me it looks like the current user has no entry in userManager, which traces
to usermanager.cpp::getUsersList() and therein line 47:
>const QStringList userNames = KUser::allUserNames();
not adding all user names, but likely only user names of local users.
Clearly at least the current user should always be part of a users listing
(even if this user is non-local (e.g. via LDAP, Kerberos or MS Active
Directory).
Which should prevent this bug, but the not listing of the current user in a
allUserNames() function could cause problems at other places to.
SUGGESTED FIX:
In samba/filepropertiesplugin/usermanager.cpp::getUsersList()
- const QStringList userNames = KUser::allUserNames();
+ const QString currentUserName = KUser().loginName();
+ QStringList userNames = KUser::allUserNames();
+ if (!userNames.contains(currentUserName))
+ userNames.append(currentUserName);
or fix in KUser::allUserNames() (However, KUser seems to be archived)!
or follow this patch for samba/filepropertiesplugin/usermanager.cpp::load():

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin in a KDE session of *non-local* user
2. Right click on a file or folder & Select "Properties"
3. Switch to tab "Share"
OBSERVED RESULT
The share tab is empty
EXPECTED RESULT
the share tab offers options to share the folder
