Right click menu not working in file browser

[wragge]

Description

When I right click on items in the Jupyter Lab file browser the context menu doesn't appear as expected. In the Javascript console the following error is reported: TypeError: Path must be a string. Received undefined.

I noticed there was a similar error reported for the context menu on tabs (#14850), but the tab context menus seem to work ok for me. Actually, it seems that if I open a tab context menu and then right click in the file browser, the tab context menu pops up over the file but nothing can be selected.

Reproduce

1. Go to file browser
2. Right click on file name
3. Nothing happens

Context

• Operating System and version: Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS
• Browser and version: Firefox 116.0 (64-bit)
• JupyterLab version: 4.0.4

I cannot reproduce. Does it happen with a specific kind of files? In a specific directory? Can you list all extensions installed and their versions?

[wragge]

I've done a bit more testing and it seems that the problem is caused by the jupyter-archive extension – if I uninstall the extension, right click works as expected, reinstall it and the problem recurs. Should I raise an issue over there?

[krassowski]

It seems it was not updated to JupyterLab 4 yet. Yes, please open an issue over there, referencing this discussion.
