With the above information, I easily managed to reproduce the behavior you describe. > Can you please tell me how to solve that problem. > What can I do so XXE asks me for my login credentials when i save (using the > PUT-Method)? > We have a lot of users that view files in our repository without having a > username and password for authentication. > It's an obscure, design bug in our WebDAV client library (http://www.xmlmind.com/davclient.shtml). This bug is now fixed in our development version of XXE v5 (expected at the end of September). If you are currently using XXE v4.9.1 and cannot wait for XXE v5 to be released, we can backport the bug fix to the addon called "WebDAV virtual drive plug-in" (see http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/addons_doc.html#dav_vdrive). Current add-on is v2.1.2. The bug fix would be found in v2.1.3. -- XMLmind XML Editor Support List [email protected] http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/xmleditor-support
