Console Front-End shows current directory name a child

[karlludwigweise]

Expected Behavior

The Front-End Console should not show a directory as a child of itself.

Current Behavior

In RELEASE.2021-11-24T23-19-33Z and some versions before that, the directory a user has opened is also part of it's children (cannot be opened).

Possible Solution

Do not display directory inside itself.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Open Console Front-End
2. Login
3. Open a bucket with directories inside
4. Open a directory
5. See that 1st child item is directory name itself

Context

I try to give other access and not be confused ;)

Console issue moving to relevant repo @karlludwigweise

[karlludwigweise]

I can‘t find it in that repo. Should it be copied manually?

Hi @karlludwigweise!

I'm trying to reproduce the issue but unfortunately I wasn't able to get the same result, In this case, would you please tell us more information about your configuration?:

• OS & Web browser Versions
• Are you working on a Baremetal / K8s instance?
• Are you working on Distributed mode?
• The bucket is versioned?

[karlludwigweise]

Hey @bexsoft,

this is a screenshot of the actual issue:

As for your questions:

• OS & Web browser Versions: macOS latest in all browsers
• Are you working on a Baremetal / K8s instance?: No. I'm using the docker official image on debian 10.
• Are you working on Distributed mode? Yes.
• The bucket is versioned? No.

The bucket also has a quota, but that should not be the issue. I think maybe the distributed mode is an issue.

When I look at the front-end request that fetches the data from /api/v1/buckets/{bucket-name}/objects?prefix={hash} the directory that should not be shown is part of the response.

@karlludwigweise are you running the console on standalone mode?

[dvaldivia]

Cannot replicate, are you sure it's not some software creating a .sync folder inside that .sync folder? can you navigate to it?

[karlludwigweise]

I just used the .sync directory for the screenshot to not spoil my metadata over the open internet. The issue occurs on any directory.

I can't really test which version this was introduced in, because there is no going back from my current version.

I'm not running it in standalone mode. There are four servers.

And most importantly I cannot navigate to the ghost directory. The front-end is not even sending a request out.

Hi @karlludwigweise,

Doing some reviews, there was an issue with Rewind functionality quite similar to this issue, this is being fixed in https://github.com/minio/console/pull/1297#pullrequestreview-825884919

Are you using rewind to navigate through the folders?

[karlludwigweise]

@bexsoft this sounds a lot like it, but I am not using rewind/versioning.

[bexsoft]

@karlludwigweise Yesterday we released new versions for MinIO & console, Would you please help us to check if issue is still present in the latest version?

Thank you!

@bexsoft I just updated. This issue is fixed for newly created directories. Great! :) But, it persists for already created directories. Is there a way to re-inizialize those?
