Hi, A lot of thanks for the pointer :) After struggling the whole morning with the problem I finally could create a user with a password and set it to a role :) First of all I am using the JCA connector to handle the connection and the transaction. I'm calling the code from the method of an EJB. Here is what I did:
String host="http://127.0.0.1:8888/slide/";; //the next line get a connection using JNDI WebDAVConnection connection=JBSCUtil.getWebDAVConnection(host); WebdavResource resource=connection.getWebdavResource(); //the variable login is the username resource.mkcolMethod("/slide/users/"+login); PropertyName pn=new PropertyName("http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/","password";); resource.proppatchMethod("/slide/users/"+login,pn,password,true); resource.setPath("/slide/roles/user"); Enumeration propEnum=resource.propfindMethod("group-member-set"); String val=(String)propEnum.nextElement(); String newProp="<![CDATA[<D:href xmlns:D='DAV:'>"+"/slide/users/"+login+"</D:href>\r\n"+val+"]]>"; //this little part changes I create a new PropertyName with namespace=DAV: and tag=group-member-set pn=new PropertyName("DAV:","group-member-set"); resource.proppatchMethod(pn,newProp,true); connection.close(); Hope this helps anyone that has or will have the same problem.
