stuck on slide

[Jimmy Yu]

Hello,

I have downloaded the binary of slide 2.0 included tomcat 5.0.19.
I was able to run the startup.bat and view/log-in through
http://localhost:8080/slide and see a listing.

I then ran my sample program (at bottom of this e-mail) and saw
the output of WebdavResource exists, File is OK, and 
putMethod() Failed.

I then edited the web.xml file to only list the /files directory.
through the web and http://localhost:8080/slide I see that the
directory is currently empty and have nothing in it.

I then ran my sample program again, and got this exception:
org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpException

Cause null


My questions are: why is putMethod() keep on failing on me? And 
why do I get the exception error when I modified the web.xml to
only list /files?  Why is that I am able to see the web page after
I modified the web.xml but yet my sample program fails?

Here is my sample program::
import java.io.*;

import org.apache.commons.httpclient.*;
import org.apache.webdav.lib.*;

public class SlideTest
{
   public static void main(String args[])
   {
      try
      {
                                HttpURL hrl = new 
HttpURL("http://localhost:8080/slide/files";);
                                 hrl.setUserinfo("root","root");
         WebdavResource wdr;
         wdr = new WebdavResource(hrl);
         if(wdr.exists())
            System.out.println("WebdavResource exists");
         else
            System.out.println("WebdavResource does NOT exists");
            
         File f = new File("SlideTest.java");
         if(f.exists())
            System.out.println("File is OK");
         else
            return;
            
         if(wdr.putMethod(f))
            System.out.println("putMethod() Successful");
         else
            System.out.println("putMethod() Failed");
          
         System.out.println("End of Test");
      }
      catch(Exception ie)
      {
         ie.printStackTrace();
         System.out.println("Cause " + ie.getCause());
      }
   }
}

Thanks for any kind of hints or pointers you might offer.
