23.3.1 NT: UAC permission and network drive path problems |
Date: |
Fri, 09 Dec 2011 19:53:35 +0200 |
Package: emacs
Version: 23.3.1
Severity: normal
TEST CASE
- OS: Windows 7 64 bit
- Log in as standard user
- Start Emacs with "run as administrator"
- Map remote host to a drive letter
- Try accessing remote drive, like z:/ e.g. with
C-x d <drive path>[TAB]
This causes signallling a cryptic error
SUGGESTION
Improve error condition checks, missing or non accessible location, and
display more informative error message.
OUTPUT DATA
"GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2011-03-10 on 3249CTO"
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (args-out-of-range "z:" 0 3)

This is fixed on the trunk: I get "No match", as expected.
Bug closed.
