The only thing in the journal that points to a problem is these 3 things

Apr 24 11:33:37 MINDA-MACHINE kioworker[45459]: QIODevice::write (QFile, "/home/mitchell/Desktop/Windows 10 Pro.iso.part"): Called with maxSize < 0

It seems to be only larger items that causes the transfer to fail. Anyone know why this might be? I can Access all the files on the nas just fine, And can do things like watch movies, tv show and listen to music just fine.

Running chachyOS on plamsa 6.3.4

Thanks

So the NAS, network-wise is using samba right ?

This seems like a bug.

What is the filesystem of /home, just to make sure ?

How big is the source file ?

That’s a nice double typo, or a distro I didn’t know existed and a new DE :smiley:

I’d say the opposite the DE runs on the distro.

Its a synology nas and it does not have a home directory enabled. The nas is using samba and i am using avahi daemon to access it. It seems to be anything over roughly a gig does not work.

Is there any additional info i can give that will help?
This has crippled my use of the nas as i use it as my central file repository.

You can answer the other questions I asked.

/home filesystem question was about your local destination copy filesystem.

Reproducing network issues are a pain. I don’t have a samba setup at the moment.

My disk files ystem is btrfs so that would be the same for my home.

I created some logical volumes and tried the transfer again, both ext4 and ntfs drives failed to download.
I tried a usb flash drive in both ext4 and ntfs. The ext4 drive failed like all the others.
The ntfs flash drive behaved a little different. The download would get to 99% then ask to overwrite the file, If i answered yes i would just loop.
I have also tried to transfer files on my laptop that is running garuda and i have the same problem.
So the drive file system does not seem to have an impact.
so it must be either samba, dolphin or plasma in general. Is there any way to isolate would would be the offending component?

Ok so i installed thunar and it can copy files from my nas just fine, so the problem must be with dolphin. Is there any way to get any relevant info about dolphins failure so i can create a bug report?

Are you accessing the SMB share via the smb:// prefix in Dolphin? This seems like a problem with the KIO SMB backend, rather than Dolphin itself. This bug should be likely filed against kio-extras or frameworks-kio, at least by looking at previous bugs (you may want to check if anything similar is already reported).

Thunar uses GVFS, where I think the SMB share is accessed as a FUSE mount.

You may consider mounting the SMB share via fstab or something like autofs, then keep using Dolphin to work on it (but beware that Dolphin will hang/freeze if the share becomes slow/unavailable).

yeah its using smb.
so my only option is to mount the network drive if i want to use dolphin?

Well, you should still report the bug/issue you encountered, but in the meantime that is a viable workaround.

Ok thanks everyone for the help in sorting this out.
