WebDAV Problems with Tomcat 4.1.29
Hello I´m using a tomcat 4.1.29 server application on my webserver. I want to access to this server with a webDAV client. I allready used a couple of webDAV- Client applications like DAVexplorer, SkunkDAV or Photoshop 6.0 but the system won´t work without problems. It is no problem to connect to the server with the client- tool, but some typical webDAV functions will be without effect. There is no way to lock a file or to move it to another directory. The Client and also the server don´t generate an error-message or something like this, it will only be without an effect. I also made tests with an apache 1.3.20 webserver, an there all functions will be availible. So I believe the client is not the problem. Does anybody have an idea what the problem is? I think i have to change the configuration of the tomcat- server. Note this: I allready switched on the WebDAV function in the web.xml file. Thank You - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

WebDav Problems with url mappings
Hello everybody,
I have serious problems with the WebDAV servlet when I try to map it to a
URL-pattern other than /.
I'd like to map it to /DAV or /webdav or something.
Just to clarify my terminology (which may not be 100% correct):
I want the WebDAV servlet to run in the same context as many other servlets
and I want them to access the same webspace-directory (i.e.: I want the
WebDAV-servlet to provice access to my webspace).
I would assume that that is what many users want - what's a stand alone
WebDAV-servlet good for??
Anyway: the servlet doesn't seem to consider its url mapping internally (not
at all or not correctly).
As a quick experimental patch I tried the following:
MyDavServlet extends WebdavServlet {
protected String getRelativePath(HttpServletRequest request) {
String res = super.getRelativePath(request);
System.err.println(translating path + res);
if (res.startsWith(/XDAV)) res = res.substring(5);
if (res.length() 1) return /;
return res;
}
}
Without this modification, Windows webfolders do not work at all.
With this modification, they work, but not 100% correctly.
Every folder (collection) also seems to contain itself. Funny effect.
== My patch is not the solution, but probably a pointer to
the problem...
I haven't spent more time with it (yet) because I don't use
it yet. I just stumbled across this problem after just 10
minutes of experimenting :-(((
I would soon LIKE TO use it and appreciate any hints that help me solve the
problem before I have to start digging in the source codes...
Holger
P.S.: Some other people seem to have experienced this problem already. I've
seen the problem on the mailing list, but no hint or solution :-(((
P.P.S.: Please reply to my e-mail address as well... this list is so busy
I'd probably miss some answers otherwise... Thanks

WebDav Problems
Hi, I use tomcat-4.1.18 and have the following problems with webdav. The Windows Client (webdav folder) does not show the modification dates of the files neither over the list nor for properties (I'm not sure whether thats called properties because I use German Windows, but I mean selecting a file and right mouse and the last menu entry to get info about file such last modified size etc.). This happens with tomcat after downloading and installation, thus we have done NO modification on tomcat. How can I get the date listed? The second problem is that webdav does not work correctly (it gets problems with directory names) when I change its url mapping. We have to do that because we want to integrate webdav into our application. The problems occur with the original tomcat-4.1.18 after modifying the url mapping. Any ideas how to solve this problem?

Re: WebDav Problems
Hi Zsolt, it might be, that it's a client problem, i.e. Webfolders isn't working correctly. I had issues with Webfolders of Windows 98. The same installation of Slide (which does WebDAV) worked on Windows 2000 Webfolders. Unfortunately I can't tell you more about this, it's just a thought.

Re: WebDav Problems
I have the problem under Windows-98 and 2000. If I understand you correctly you don't have this problem with tomcat and slide and the client it W-2000. Is that correct?

Re: WebDav Problems
Hi Zsolt, I don't see the dates on Win2k either. So I really think it's a client problem. I have also a web interface. It shows the dates correctly. I've never realized this problem, because I seldom test with webfolders and the date was always far right (outside the window) so I didn't see the empty column. Excuse me for the irritation.

Re: WebDav Problems (same problem + hint)

Yes, I have the same problem and I really think it's a bug in the servlet.
It doesn't seem to consider its url mapping internally (not at all or not
correctly).

MyDavServlet extends WebdavServlet {
protected String getRelativePath(HttpServletRequest request) {

Re: WebDAV problems -- thank you
Remy Maucherat wrote: First, thanks a lot to your log, since I found a bug into the Catalina's HTTP connector because of that :) I repeat, that looks like an opportunity for Microsoft to show good faith. Well, they've added and used and products huge I'm often annoyed at Microsoft when they may not deserve it, because I have been a Unix bigot for 15 years or so. When I started with the Internet, Microsoft and IBM both refused to recognize or support TCP/IP. And I'm constantly aware of Microsoft's efforts to drive everyone to use their products, because those products don't run on my machine. But I can understand, if the webdav spec is fuzzy, that different people might support it in different ways. -This Windows machine does not work --- 192.48.19.135 - - [08/Nov/2000:16:15:10 -0800] "OPTIONS / HTTP/1.1" 200 - I wonder why it tries the root of the namespace ... My fault. I was curious whether it would say "Not webdav". But it didn't get that far, cadaver just timed out. If you're building from CVS, you can probably give it another shot. Otherwise, wait until we release M5 (one week). I'm behind a firewall here, so I guess I'll wait. ;-) Unless it turns up in one of the nightly builds I can ftp? Ray Allis
