[Torsten Lilge]

Update of bug #58401 (project octave):

                Category:                     GUI => Interpreter            
                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
                 Release:                   5.1.0 => 6.0.90                 
                 Summary: Error 'undefined near line 1 column 1' when running
a new file created through the GUI editor in a cached network drive => Script
and function files not found in cached network drive

Follow-up Comment #1:

I can conform this on Windows 7 and there are some interesting observations:

0 As in the original post, saving and running a file, e.g. as "ccc.m" leads to
"error: 'ccc' undefined near line 1, column 1" although the file exists
0 Following comands "ccc" in the console lead to the same error
0 "run('ccc') does not work
0 "source('ccc.m')" works
0 "edit ccc" works
0 Adding the path of the offline network share explicitly to Octave's task
solves the problem
0 The problem does not occurr when the file is already existing when octave
starts 
0 All this is not GUI-related and also happens in the CLI

It seems that Octave is not able to handle the current directory as a member
of the search path if it is on offline network share. Changing category from
GUI to Interpreter.
