Dear nginx developers, The dav module of nginx was tested with client Nautilus 3.4.2 to implement a shared file system in operations office.
While testing the ngx_http_dav_module, found some conflicts that are described below: 1. In operations with MOVE method for files and/or directories: It was found a conflict with the destination header, because Nautilus client sends the URI with the user name, but the user name in the destination header is not supported by nginx, resulting in the following error. acesses_log: - - 192.168.12.229 - lcolina [27/Sep/2013:09:37:19 -0430] MOVE /data/imagenes/imagen2 HTTP/1.1 "400" 166 "-" "gvfs/1.12.3" "-" error_log: 2013/09/27 09:37:19 [debug] 18900#0: *145 http process request header line 2013/09/27 09:37:19 [debug] 18900#0: *145 http header: "Host: webdav.org.ve" 2013/09/27 09:37:19 [debug] 18900#0: *145 http header: "Destination: https://[email protected]/data/imagenes/imagen"; 2013/09/27 09:37:19 [debug] 18900#0: *145 http header: "Overwrite: F" 2013/09/27 09:37:19 [error] 18900#0: *145 "Destination" URI "https://[email protected]/data/imagenes/imagen"; is handled by different repository than the source URI while sending to client, client: 192.168.12.229, server: webdav.org.ve, request: "MOVE /data/imagenes/imagen2 HTTP/1.1", host: "webdav.org.ve" I think this should be changed because according to the standard is optional URI that contains the user information. So nginx should be able to handle the URI with the user name or not. “The user information, if present, is followed by a commercial at-sign ("@") that delimits it from the host.” This conflict is solved in line @@ -579,6 +578,16 @@ the patch below. 2.
