Fixed: Nautilus terminates itself when deleting a folder

With what version of nautilus is this? Do you mean that you select the folder in the side pane, right click, send to trash and then nautilus crashes? I cannot reproduce this with nautilus 2.16.1-0ubuntu2. Also, please install the nautilus-dbg package and in a terminal, type 'gnome-session-remove nautilus && gdb nautilus'. Then follow the instructions after step 2 of http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace to get a backtrace of the crash (it's quite vital to spotting the problem). Thanks for reporting this.

what version of Ubuntu do you use. If you use dapper and have a window open on the folder you are moving that's a known behaviour, it closes the window because it would be wrong to keep displaying something which has been moved

I am running Nautilus 2.14.3 on Ubuntu 6.06. Following please find the result of the backtrace. In this case Nautlius has termitated itself again after I sent a folder to trash, but Backtrace says that it has been exiting normally - what is obviously not true. It is a little bit hard to reproduce this effect - sometimes it is ok (deleting folders without exitng the programm - and sometimes not).

how is it fixed? are you moving the directory open as described by my previous comment?

It is planned to be fixed in Nautilis 2.16.
I am not in the directory when I want to delete it. I am using the right mouse click in the tree structure (left side tree, right side directory) to send the fodler to trash. So...Nautilus is not only exiting when I delete the empty directory while I am still in the folder.

probably a duplicate of bug #36500, marking as duplicate, feel free to reopen if you think that's not correct

#36500 is exactly what I mean (only the english is much better ;-) ). Thanks a lot!
