Hello Stan,
the PROPFIND call is made whenever you create a new
WebdavResource. This call collects some info about the resource and
probably its children. In your client, when you try to upload a file,
you call the putMethod() with a path of file.getName(). I guess that
will not work because you are expected to specifiy the full path
starting from the root node.
Hope that helps,
Ingo
