Hy Ryan, The key is that the directories and the documents in the database must be accessible by the user that you are connecting to the WebDAV server with. If you created the root directory of the WebDAV server with an admin user and did not put any permissions on it, then only an admin user will be able to connect.
So each document and directory must have permissions on it, and to access it, the user accessing the WebDAV server must have a role corresponding to a read permission on the documents and directories in the database. To see if the root directory has any permissions, try running xdmp:document-get-permissions on the root directory of the WebDAV server. If it returns empty, then there are no permissions. You can add them with xdmp:document-set-permissions or xdmp:document-add-permissions (or when you create the doc/directory by specifying permission). -Danny ________________________________________ From: general-boun...@developer.marklogic.com [general-boun...@developer.marklogic.com] On Behalf Of seme...@hotmail.com [seme...@hotmail.com] Sent: Saturday, June 04, 2011 6:06 PM To: general@developer.marklogic.com Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] useing WebDAV as a non-admin user I have never been able to get a non-admin user to be able to use WebDAV, and I have not found a solution online. I have tried adding every role and privilege except for admin and still it doesn't work. It seems like the user must really have the admin role to use WebDAV. Is it the case that non-admin users can use WebDAV and if so what am I doing wrong?
