[jira] [Created] (GUACAMOLE-2319) SFTP side panel displays symlinked directories as files
Eugen Hartmann created GUACAMOLE-2319:
-----------------------------------------
Summary: SFTP side panel displays symlinked directories as files
Key: GUACAMOLE-2319
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-2319
Project: Guacamole
Issue Type: Bug
Components: guacamole
Affects Versions: 1.6.0
Reporter: Eugen Hartmann
When SFTP is enabled and a symlink pointing to a directory exists on the server, the SFTP side panel lists the symlink as a file rather than a folder. Clicking it triggers a file download instead of navigating into the directory.
The downloaded content is a JSON index of the symlinked directory's contents rather than an actual file. For example, a symlink {{dir-symlink}} containing {{testfile.txt}} produces a download with the content {{{}"/dir-symlink/testfile.txt":"application/octet-stream"{}}}.
Regular (non-symlinked) directories are listed and navigated correctly. Only symlinks to directories are affected.
