[xwiki-users] WebDAV issue: Not Implemented
Hello, I have just upgraded to XWiki Enterprise 2.3.1.29118 and have a question regarding configuring WebDAV. My XWiki is installed in Tomcat 5.5 as the 'ROOT' web app. Tomcat runs on port 8080 and I have an AJP connector with Apache proxying requests via SSL port 443, meaning that my wiki can be accessed at: https://www.myhost.tld/bin/view/Main (etc.) My question is regarding WebDAV login. I understand that the normal login URL for this would be: http://www.myhost.tld:8080/xwiki/webdav However, since I have deployed XWiki as the ROOT webapp, it seems that I am getting redirected to Tomcat's built-in WebDAV app when accessing this URL. When I access: http://www.myhost.tld:8080/webdav or https://www.myhost.tld/xwiki/webdav I get the same list of three files - a generic HTML page listing information about Tomcat's WebDAV support, and a couple of GIF files with the Tomcat logo. When I access: http://www.myhost.tld:8080/xwiki/webdav or https://www.myhost.tld/xwiki/webdav I get a 'Not Implemented' error. Could someone advise on how to configure XWiki/Tomcat to pass me to XWiki's WebDAV implementation, rather than to Tomcat's default one? My xwiki.cfg has WebDAV enabled (as far as I know - it is pretty much set to defaults in all respects). On another note: thank you for all your sterling work with XWiki. It's a tremendously flexible and useful application, and it has been a breeze to administer.

Re: [xwiki-users] WebDAV issue: Not Implemented
Hi, Normally XWiki / Tomcat works without much trouble when it comes to WebDAV. Now I'm not sure if apache is doing anything before forwarding those requests to tomcat. Can we see your tomcat log files when the Not Implemented error occurs? Or do you see any log entries in xwiki.log file that has anything to do with webdav? Thanks. - Asiri On Fri, Jul 2, 2010 at 2:52 PM, West, Graeme graeme.w...@gcu.ac.uk wrote: Hello, I have just upgraded to XWiki Enterprise 2.3.1.29118 and have a question regarding configuring WebDAV.

I suspect that the root helper servlet present on the default Jetty distribution, the one answering the OPTIONS request, is not deployed. Asiri, could you confirm that? We should probably integrate it's functionality in the redirect servlet. - Asiri On Fri, Jul 2, 2010 at 2:52 PM, West, Graemegraeme.w...@gcu.ac.uk wrote: Hello, I have just upgraded to XWiki Enterprise 2.3.1.29118 and have a question regarding configuring WebDAV.

Re: [xwiki-users] WebDAV issue: Not Implemented
Hi Asiri, Sergiu, Thanks for looking into this. I think I've figured it out thanks to your assistance. Here's a WebDAV transcript when I connected directly to Tomcat on port 8080, e.g. http://www.myhost.tld:8080/webdav/ (note that I have changed the domain in the transcript, as it's a private wiki) Transmit 4.0.5 (x86_64) Session Transcript [Version 10.6.4 (Build 10F569)] (02/07/2010 13:58) Connecting to www.myhost.tld OPTIONS /webdav/ HTTP/1.1 PROPFIND /webdav/ HTTP/1.1 200 OK In directory /webdav PROPFIND /webdav/ HTTP/1.1 207 Multi-Status tomcat.gif 1934 2009-07-27 22:24:34 +0100 tomcat-power.gif 2324 2009-07-27 22:24:34 +0100 index.html 2979 2009-07-27 22:24:34 +0100 Nothing appeared in catalina.out. When I connected to http://www.myhost.tld:8080/xwiki/webdav/ , this happens: Transmit 4.0.5 (x86_64) Session Transcript [Version 10.6.4 (Build 10F569)] (02/07/2010 14:01) Connecting to www.myhost.tld OPTIONS /xwiki/webdav/ HTTP/1.1 PROPFIND /xwiki/webdav/ HTTP/1.1 200 OK Again, nothing appeared in catalina.out. But I couldn't see any files and my WebDAV client gives an error: Make sure your user name and password were entered correctly and that the server supports WebDAV. I didn't expect /xwiki/webdav/ to work, since the /xwiki/ part of the URL doesn't exist in my servlet container. The fix: I have removed the default Tomcat WebDAV web app, by deleting the folder /var/lib/tomcat5/webapps/webdav . Now, requests to /webdav go straight to XWiki, as Xwiki's web.xml suggests. Thanks all! Just one other quick question: where does Xwiki store logging information for its LDAP connections? I'm trying to debug Active Directory integration, and there's nothing in catalina.out.
