Can't open file using notepad++ #19

Closed erikdemarco closed 5 years ago

erikdemarco commented 5 years ago

I'm using filezilla to work with my files and set notepad++ as my default editor. When I want to edit file it shows :

z:\tmp\folder\file.txt cannot be opened. folder 'z:\tmp\folder\' does't exist

All other text editor doesnt have this error.

Steps I tried: -) enable 'read/write files on removable storage devices' from permission (it won't save the permission, just roll back to disabled) -) try installing in classic mode (doesn't work) sudo snap install notepad-plus-plus --classic -) force enable permission via terminal: (doesn't work) sudo snap connect snap-app:removable-media

maybe this is because you don't have 'file-system' plug? Because file that i want to access is in tmp folder

You can try bind mounting tmp to home/tmp inorder to get this working as the snap does not have access rights to / path so then work with your files from $HOME/tmp.

mkdir $HOME/tmp sudo mount -obind /tmp $HOME/tmp

Hello nice idea. but unfortunately it still doesnt work.

Filezilla send this filepath to notepad++: '/tmp/file.txt' not '$HOME/tmp/file.txt'

so notepad++ still gives this error: '/tmp/file.txt' cannot be opened. folder '/tmp' does't exist

any other method? or is there any way to install this outside snap environtment?

Other method I would suggest is install npp in system install wine. It would require install wine as per distro method.

Same problem, lost my morning on this issue. It's a pity because NPP is great. However I found that : sudo mount --bind /data/$USER /home/$USER/snap/notepad-plus-plus/common/$USER will do the job, gives long filepaths however
