Hi,

I have a webdav share enabled on my mac and I can use the
"connect to server" item under the 'Go' menu of the finder
to mount the webdav directory.

Get Info asserts that I can read and write.

However any attempt to drag a file to the mounted
folder fails with an assertion that some data in
the file could not be read or written. ( error code -36).

I can drag files out of the folder ok.

_www owns the folder and has all privs.

I tried giving 'other' write access but this did no good.

Any suggestions?
******************

The problem was a missing lock directory:


Part of my configuration was

DAVLockDB "/Library/WebServer/DAVlock/"

When I checked, there was no such directory!

I created the directory and set the owner and group to _www and restarted
the server.

I was able to mount the webdav share and drag a file onto the window
and the copy succeeded.

I was also able mount the webdav share on a linux box and drag a file
to the window and the copy succeeded.
