I am trying to implement WebDAV into Apache (stock OpenBSD 3.7 version). After adding mod_dav (package) to Apache and making the necessary adjustments to httpd.conf (following http://www.webdav.org/mod_dav/faq/) I managed to see/open the freshly made 'share' but not write to it; error.log (Apache) mentions 'Could not open the lock database'. In an attempt to resolve this challenge, I tried the following:
1.) Run Apache outside chroot; 2.) Chmod everything remotely connected to mod_dav to 777; 3.) Used the following settings in httpd.conf. DAVLockDB /var/www/htdocs/DAV DAVMinTimeout 600 <Directory/> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None </Directory> <Directory "/var/www/htdocs"> AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> <Directory /var/www/htdocs/DAV> DAV On </Directory> Unfortunately these attempts were not fruitful and error.log still mentions 'Could not open the lock database'. Any suggestions? -- Insanity in individuals is something rare - but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.
