Error: Cannot copy output file, check your permissions about caesium-image-compressor HOT 8 CLOSED

2.6.0 shows "Error: Cannot copy output file, check your permissions ",
but use 2.5.1 compress the same files, it shows "Skipped: compressed file is bigger than original"

from caesium-image-compressor.

I'm assuming is a problem related to #234 and its fix. I'll check it out.

I had the same message for some images on ubuntu 23.10 and CIC v2.7.0

@JeckPeppinger Can you please share detailed steps that lead to the problem? I'm trying to reproduce the issue myself. Would be helpful if you could also share all the compression options you are using (you can attach screenshots or you can find them by going to Preferences > Show Usage Data > Compression Options)

hi, i checked and did not find a log or history that shows something useful. Will take care in the future and provide evidence if it happens again.

It just looks like outputs the wrong "error".

It should be"Skipped: compressed file is bigger than original" , not "Error: Cannot copy output file, check your permissions ".

captured the bug ... guess your hint that it should be the "skipped" message is correct.

I was able to reproduce the bug and pushed a tentative fix. As you said, the message was wrong because the app was not really dealing with the extension change in filename. Should work as expected now and I'm gonna publish the fix on 2.7.0.
