#247 Unable to use file sharing

Unable to use file sharing

When trying to share the current directory, the following error is obtained:

jp file share path -cp profile_name . -j jid@server.tld
can't share path: UnknownMethod: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dbus/service.py", line 654, in _message_cb
(candidate_method, parent_method) = _method_lookup(self, method_name, interface_name)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dbus/service.py", line 246, in _method_lookup

UnknownMethodException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Unknown method: FISSharePath is not a valid method of interface org.goffi.SAT.plugin

When I try to list the files (even if the previous command failed, we should have a clear output)

jp file share list jid@server.tld

Hi, I've just tried it and it's working fine for me, you're first error looks like the plugin was not loaded, can you try again and check backend log if the problem is still here? The second issue is similar, I suspect that the plugin was not loaded at all. Also note that in this case you are doing a direct device to device sharing, so you need to use a full jid (with the resource specified) for second command. I'll document this hopefully soon so it will be more clear. Also I'm planning to implement XEP-0353 for 0.8 so the full jid would not be mandatory anymore.
