Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] RE: WebDev at Root of database

Hi David,

I suggest reading section 8.1.3 of the administrator's guide:
http://developer.marklogic.com/pubs/4.1/books/admin.pdf

The unique identifier for a document in MarkLogic is the document URI.
Slashes in document URIs correspond to directory structures in MarkLogic
by default. For files to be viewable by a WebDAV server, they must
belong to a directory, and that directory must belong to the root
directory configuration of the WebDAV server. So, in your example:

SPL/file.xml

/SPL/file.xml

The first URI does not belong to a root directory, so it cannot be seen
by a WebDAV server, whereas the second document does belong to root
directory of "/", so it is seen by your WebDAV server when the root
directory is configured to be "/". If you had set your root to be
"/foo/", then your WebDAV server would not have seen this document
either.

This behavior is consistent across the supported operating systems for
MarkLogic. However, different WebDAV clients may exhibit somewhat
different behaviors.

Message-ID: <dd37f70d78609d4e9587d473fc61e0a713afb...@postoffice>

I'm trying to setup a WebDav connection and I cant get it to "see"
everything in the database.

The Root directory is a required field.  If I leave it blank, then the
GUI sets it to "/"

If I put files (using XCC) into the top level "directory" (i.e a uri
like "pa2010.xml" ) then WebDav doesnt see it.

I played around with various settings and I cant figure out any setting
for WebDav that puts its view at the true root of the database.

Interestingly I've found that "/" is not treated specially.  That is
these URI's are distinct atleast as far as WebDav is concerned

 

SPL/file.xml

/SPL/file.xml

 

Any suggestions ? or is this just something I have to work around.
