Subfolder with same name as current folder instead of '..' (back link)

2015-06-02 08:19

Hi

I am connected over WebDAV to a remote environment. There i noticed that when navigate into specific subfolders then the usual 'back' folder '..' is replaced with a folder of the same name as the folder where you are in (see Screenshot). When you click on that folder of course it gets an error 400.

What I found out is that the issue occurs for folders with space in it (maybe other situation also). Not sure if it also occurs witch other connection protocols (e.g. FTP), only noticed with WebDAV

Would be great if this could be fixed in a future version.

Thanks and best regards
Marc

You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem).
