Subject: bug#34834: 26.1; Remote `eshell/mv' and `eshell/cp' on Windows: Opening output file: Invalid argument, c:/home/ ...
Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2019 21:54:00 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87o96f4v47.fsf@gmx.com> (raw)


Hi,
this bug is similar to my previously reported bug #33791. I'm running
Emacs 26.1 (with the patched files.el that fixed that bug[1]) on Windows
10. I've replicated this with "emacs -Q".

When using eshell connected to a GNU/Linux machine, `eshell/cp' and
`eshell/mv' (which are called in eshell with the commands "cp" and "mv")
both return an "Invalid argument" error when the source and destination
are relative paths on the remote machine.

Recipe:
- connect to GNU/Linux machine using plink:
    /plink:jordan@domain.com:/home/jordan/
- cp/mv a file between locations on the remote machine
    /plink:jordan@domain.com:/home/jordan $ cp file.txt directory/
- returns:
   Opening output file: Invalid argument, c:/plink:jordan@domain.com:/home/jordan/file.txt

I'm guessing it's a problem of not correctly handling the relative TRAMP
paths, as it works if provided the full paths for the source and
destination.

Thanks.
