Description Steve Edmonds 2014-06-30 03:06:55 UTC 
Problem description: 
I just updated from LO 3.6 to 4.1.6 on OSX 10.68. 3.6 was working fine.
If I go to open a file from LO and navigate to a network share no files show in the share. If I cancel LO hangs and has to be killed.
I can see the files in OSX finder (file explorer).
I can open a file from finder (open with LO).

Once I have at least one file opened from the network share (via finder) I can then see files on the share from within LO file open dialogue.

Save as works ok

Steps to reproduce:
1. ....Go to file>open in writer or calc
2. ....Navigate to a network share
3. ....Cancel

Current behavior:
Files are not listed (not any file).
LO hangs on cancel

Expected behavior:
Files are visible, LO does not hang.
              
Operating System: Mac OS X
Version: 4.1.6.2 release

If I disable Load printer settings with document I can then browse the share from within LO.

That only lasted a short while. Now it is back to original description of the problem.

The standard reply to this is to say "Use LO's own dialogs, rather than OSX"
Does that change anything for you ?

Even if it does, it is a poor workaround.

I don't see this with an AFS share on LO 4304 - how are your shares mounted ?
Comment 5 Alex Thurgood 2014-10-01 13:46:59 UTC 
OSX 10.9.5, if that makes a difference
Comment 6 Steve Edmonds 2014-10-01 18:34:50 UTC 
My Mac updated to OSX 10.9 and last night to 10.9.5. I noticed with the update I had to change my server connection from smb: to cifs:.
I can today now browse network shares.
