Gary D. Gregory commented on VFS-428:
-------------------------------------

Oops, looks like we have an unrelated bug, the error message is missing. I 
created VFS-433 to address this side issue.

> The deeper Problem is, that the HttpClient using by VFS does not append a 
> trailing slash and mod_dir of httpd has "DirectorySlash On" per default. So 
> httpd send 301 redirect to the same url with / appended.
> I know that for this reason of problematic webdav client apache introduced 
> "redirect-carefully" for some user agents using the "BrowserMatch" directive. 
> So I just tried adding the following into my <Directory> directive
> {code}
> BrowserMatch "^Jakarta-Commons-VFS" redirect-carefully
> BrowserMatch "^Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.0" redirect-carefully
> BrowserMatch "^Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.1" redirect-carefully
> {code}
> Its needed to have Jakarta-Commons-VFS *and* Jakarta Commons-HttpClient 
> because of two requests from commons vfs using two different user agents.
> But instead of solving the issue, I get for every FileObject.getChildren() 
> call at least one FileObject of type imaginary with the same basename as the 
> parent. Thats not a problem at all (besides that this is totally wrong!) but 
> deleting a parent just dont work anymore, because of an *non-existent* 
> imaginary file inside the dir which cannot be deleted of course.
> To cut a long story short, what is the right httpd webdav server config to 
> use 2.0 Release version of VFS?
