Description Reinhard Gimbel 2005-12-22 13:28:18 UTC
After a fresh installation of 10.1a4 I'm not able to run the online update. YOU responds not being able to download the server list.

As soon as I disable the the YAST2_LOADFTPSERVER-option and run YOU again with sample server setting like "ftp.suse.com" for servername and "pub/suse" (no leading slash !) for the folder on the server this two strings seem to be concatenated in a weird manner.

With the next call to modify these settings the string for the folder is displayed as "%2fpub/suse" and as soon as this settings are stored the resulting path is displayed as "ftp://ftp.suse.com/%2f%252fpub/suse".

The next attempt to open this obviously wrong setting shows "%2f%2f&2fpub/suse" and after exiting this dialog the resulting string is "ftp://ftp.suse.com/%2f%252f%252f%252fpub/suse".

There seems to be a bug in the stringhandling for the path to access the remote online update server !
