Package: apache2 Version: 2.2.3-4 Hi there,
I've stumbled upon a problem when activating Apache's DAV-module which is availabe with the apache2-base-package. After enabling the dav-module using "a2enmod dav" and setting up a usual DAV-directory everything seemed to work fine. Files could be viewed and downloaded from the DAV-directory. However, write-access wasn't possible. (Strange error messages came up when trying to upload a file.) I found out that the module-configuration ("dav_fs.conf") located in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled had the following entry: DAVLockDB /var/lock/apache2/DAVLock That "DAVLock"-file in /var/lock/apache2 was owned exclusively by "root:root". -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12288 2007-05-10 15:02 DAVLock Since the Apache2-server is run by "www-data" a more suitable ownership and/or different file access permission should be applied. Changing the above to -rw-rw-r-- 1 root www-data 12288 2007-05-10 15:02 DAVLock worked just fine. I'm using Debian 4.0 (Etch); Kernel 2.6.18-4-686. Thanks a lot and keep on maintaining such a wonderful system like Debian! Achim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
