    dolphin root actions does not function properly

    I am trying to use root actions in dolphin after installing root services. Dolphin does display the root action menu. But when i try to copy a file to a system directory i cant
    paste the file. There is no such option in the menu.

    For something like that, I simply open Dolphin as root:

    kdesudo dolphin

    Do all your work (carefully), then close Dolphin properly.

      you do not have the "move / rename" option in the menu ?

      it dose require typing the full path to the new location .

        Strange. Now when i copy a file using root actions i get: Could not find the program rootactions-servicemenu.pl.

        i reinstalled my system today. so that has probably something todo with it. i do remember i fiddled something with this feature when i installed it the first time (then i got this same message), but
        cant remember what it was.

          see post # 8 and 10 @hear https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showth...servicemenu.pl

          but it was/is Kubuntu-15.04 that had this problem ?

            yeah. i first had this problem using 15.04. But after some other problems i installed 14.04 again. root actions still give me the same popup. Could not find the program rootactions-servicemenu.pl.

            Now i just use kdesudo dolphin.

              I don't use 15.04, but kubicle's root actions program works in my 14.04, so something is amiss somehow with yours. Of course, kdesudo dolphin works.
