Description Remy Suen CLA 2016-11-08 03:14:10 EST 
Electron 1.2.7

1. Startup a new Electron (on an existing workspace) so you have nothing selected in the file navigator.
2. File > New > File
3. Enter the name of a folder that already exists in the root.
4. You will get a red status error: "Failed to create file: xxx"
5. File > New > Folder
6. Enter the same name you used in 3.
7. You will get a green status message: "Failed to create folder: xxx"

I feel like the folder error message should also be green. Both errors are red to me if I point my browser at the running Node instance so this problem definitely seems to be specific to Electron.

I take that back. You can't create a file in the root folder in the browser client but I do get the folder creation error in the browser.

Thanks Remy.

I also opened bug 507690 for the weird error messages you get on orion.eclipse.org / orionhub.org
