PUT to iis is failing

[carlos f]

I need to PUT files onto an IIS v6 server.

My attempts to PUT to an IIS fail with a 403 response code.

Attempts to PUT the same file to the same IIS URI in cadaver or BitKinex are
successful.

I am using IIS 6.  I assume that webDAV is set up properly because cadaver
and BitKinex are successful.
I am using HTTP-client v 3.0.1
Java 1.5 on windows XP sp2

This is my HTTP put test.

    @Override
    protected void setUp() throws Exception {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.setUp();
        client = new HttpClient();
        host = "192.168.4.14";
        uriString = MessageFormat.format("http://{0}/upload";, host);
    }

    public void testHttpClientPut() throws Exception {
        File pdf = new
File("C:\\Temp\\edis3-dev\\cd\\attachments\\1f6135e5-5ec3-435e-82d3-53957e39fc83\\-95097967_-66622204.pdf");
        PutMethod method = new PutMethod(uriString);
        method.setRequestHeader("Host", host);
        method.setRequestHeader("User-Agent", "EDIS3/3.0.0");
        method.setRequestHeader("Accept", "*/*");
        method.setRequestHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
        method.setRequestHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");

        method.setRequestHeader("Content-Length",
String.valueOf(pdf.length()));
        method.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/octet-stream");
        method.setRequestHeader("Translate", "f");

        InputStreamRequestEntity requestEntity
            = new InputStreamRequestEntity(new FileInputStream(pdf));

        method.setRequestEntity(requestEntity);

        executeMethod(method);

    }

    private void executeMethod(HttpMethod method) throws IOException,
            HttpException {
        try {
            Header[] headers = method.getRequestHeaders();
            
            outputHeaders(headers, "REQUEST HEADERS");
            
            int result = client.executeMethod(method);
            assertTrue("response was: " + result, 200 <= result && result <
300);
        } finally {
            method.releaseConnection();
        }
    }

Here are the HTTP headers for BitKinex

<<< PUT /upload/-95097967_-66622204.pdf HTTP/1.1
<<< Host: 192.168.4.14
<<< User-Agent: BitKinex/3.0.4
<<< Accept: */*
<<< Pragma: no-cache
<<< Cache-Control: no-cache
<<< Cookie: ASPSESSIONIDSATRBDAR=GEHBABIDLOEICKBKHHHNPBHA
<<< Content-Length: 208
<<< Content-Type: application/octet-stream
<<< Translate: f
>>> HTTP/1.1 201 Created
>>> Date: Fri, 28 Nov 2008 17:30:40 GMT
>>> Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0
>>> Location: http://192.168.4.14/upload/-95097967_-66622204.pdf
>>> Content-Length: 0
>>> Allow: OPTIONS, TRACE, GET, HEAD, DELETE, PUT, COPY, MOVE, PROPFIND,
>>> PROPPATCH, SEARCH, LOCK, UNLOCK

CADAVER SESSION
>>>$ cadaver http://192.168.4.14/upload
>>>dav:/upload/> PUT another.test.txt
>>>Uploading another.test.txt to `/upload/another.test.txt': succeeded.
>>>dav:/upload/>

I can't tell if this is some IIS oddity.  When i request the options from
the server PUT is not listed (advertised methods are: [OPTIONS, TRACE, GET,
HEAD, DELETE, COPY, MOVE, PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, SEARCH, MKCOL, LOCK,
UNLOCK]).  However, when BitKinex has its PUT successfully returned the
allowed options header does include PUT.

Any ideas?
