Chuck,
What version is Lucid's apache2.2-bin a backport of? I just tried with the
last 2.2.15 version and the permissions are 644 rather than Ubuntu's 600. I
did this by way of replacing mod_dav_fs.so as described below.
Thanks,
Roy

This is probably due to the one of the mod_dav patches that has been
backported from svn tree. if you try the latest available version of
apache you will probably get the same results. If you can verify that it
is, otherwise its a bug that we have.

Apache Web DAV incorrect permissions

Status in “apache2” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: apache2
I am a Git pull/push through Apache https user, and I also use the
file-based protocol. Recently I noticed that the Git repository was filled
with objects of permission -rw-- belonging to www-data, the Apache
server username. After further digging, this is not Git's problem, but
possibly mod_dav_fs's. In fact, any file transferred with a DAV PUT
command results in said 0600 permissions.
Although this is arguably a feature of Ubuntu, I found that the behavior
differs from a standard Apache server. To reproduce:
1) Download the original archive from
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/apache2/apache2_2.2.14.orig.tar.gzand
build with ./configure --enable-dav-fs=shared --enable-dav-lock=shared
--enable-dav=shared.
This should result in a mod_dav_fs.so library in modules/dav/fs/.libs.
Place such a shared library in /usr/lib/apache/modules as a replacement for
the one already there.
2) Set up a DAV location like so:
IfModule dav_fs_module
Location /test
DAV on
/Location
/IfModule
3) Use cadaver to connect to your server and PUT a file in location
test. The idea is that the permissions come out as 0600 for the standard
Lucid installation and 0644 for the vanilla Apache module.
Further evidence supporting the idea that the problem arises from Ubuntu
packaging is the rather extensive modifications to mod_dav_fs code in the
diff found at
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/apache2/apache2_2.2.14-5ubuntu3.diff.gz
.
Thank you for your attention!
