Caja crashes upon opening remote terminal

Postby 1particle on Sun May 27, 2012 1:50 pm

I'm running Linux Mint 13 (64 bit) with Mate desktop, for which Caja is the default file browser.
When I connect to a remote server on Caja via sftp, and open a (remote) terminal there from the right-click menu, Caja crashes. This does not happen while browsing local folders though.
I initiated Caja from terminal and tried the same process to see if it gives any error message while crashing, and it does not.
So I have to use Nautilus now whenever I want to browse remote folders, which is fine, except that I have to launch it separately, because I can't have the system to use Nautilus as the default file browser (did it in the "Preferred applications" window, but doesn't take effect, so I guess I'm reporting two bugs!).
Any help you can provide with this will be very much appreciated.

Linux Mint is funded by ads and donations.

I've checked the issues on GitHub, it isn't a known issue for MATE's File Manager: https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-fi ... ger/issues Can anybody confirm the issue? Then the bug should go up there I think.

I can confirm this issue in Caja. If I browse remote folder and want to open remote terminal here, Caja crashes. I observed it in the last LMDE 64b, MAYA 32 and 64b too. If I open it in local terminal (GVFS folder), work fine.

Thanks Vincent and Karlos!
Vincent, I can't find this bug posted on that github page you mentioned. Should I post it there?
Also, does either of you know of a way to effectively replace Caja with Nautilus? I use Nautilus for dropbox anyway, but can't get it to manage my desktop too.

I can confirm Caja crashing when trying to open a remote terminal as well, using MATE on Maya 64b. I'm not sure what is causing it, but you should probably post that bug. And as you mentioned, I would appreciate a way to completely replace Caja with something fully working too.
