I have tried some time ago to use slide by integrating tomcat to apache with mod_webapp. I succeed with webdrive but not succeed with webfolders.
I think the problem with webfolders is that they try to know if the server support webdav by sending an OPTION request on server's root. This request tells that server is not supporting webdav because apache itself does not support webdav. Some other webdav client (webdrive for example) are sending this OPTION request only on the accessed uris which are mapped to tomcat. For these clients, using tomcat integrated into apache works. I think the problem with webfolders may be fixed by hacks like setting up an apache mod_dav to make webfoders think that the apache server is supporting webdav but it is quite a dirty hack and I am not shure at all it could work. If you fix your problem, please post the workaround to this list Jp Pratik Patel wrote: > > Hello, > > I am trying to use the following combo: > > * Apache httpd 1.3.22 > * Tomcat 4.0.4 > * Slide 1.0.6 > * jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.0.4-b2 (for the mod_webapp source) > > Everything works fine when I connect to the test http server I have > running on the Tomcat instance (port 8080). > However, when I try to connect via the apache httpd, it will not work.
