I'm testing IP clearance->libneon these days. You can find the details from here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/IP_Clearance+Impact
To test WebDAV supporting, I set up a simple WebDAV server. It's the first time for me to do this, and I just test the server on XP SP3 with oo3.3 as client. background: on the XP, I installed both oo3.3 and Ooo-dev. Then upgrade oo3.3 to r1293550 and found WebDAV doesn't work, then I uninstall r1293550 and re-install oo3.3. With this oo3.3 I test my WebDAV server: 1. click File->open in openoffice then insert http://9.123.153.36/webdavand click Open 2. a dialog appears asking for username&password 3. enter correct username/password, then press Enter 4. the folder opened and I can see all contents, then I select a .odt file to open, succeeds. So, I say my server works. Yesterday I download r1296433 and upgrade oo3.3 to this latest build, then repeat above steps. But in open dialog I found the pass http://9.123.153.36/webdav is remembered, and it works. To avoid impact of user profile of oo3.3, I kill all process and rename folder C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\OpenOffice.org, then relaunch openoffice and try again, but in step 1 it says the file name is invalid... Reuse the old user profile, it works. Reuse the new one, it doesn't work. So, I thought there may be some settings in user profile which is set when installing. Then, I find a clean XP SP3, I never installed openoffice on it, and install oo3.4 r1296433. But it doesn't work with error "the above file name is invalid"... May be the server is invalid? Back to the original XP, I uninstall oo3.4, remove the user profiles, re-install oo3.3, unfortunately, 3.3 doesn't work either, with the same error message.... then I tried on Ubuntu 10.04: remove oo3.4 r1293550 which is upgraded from oo 3.3, then install latest r1296433, repeat the steps, works But when I modify then save, there is an Error message: Error saving the document libnero: Error transferring data to the internet. Server error mesage: Internal Server Error Maybe the permission on server is incorrect set? I will check later. So, the server is working, but oo3.3 cannot work now...except for user profile in C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\OpenOffice.org, there is another place that openoffice is using? other platforms I tried: win7-64, intalled oo3.3, used for days, then uninstall and install oo3.4 r1296433: 1. click open then insert http://9.123.153.36/webdav and click Open 2. a dialog appears asking for username&password 3. enter correct user/password, then press Enter Nothing happened... Redhat 6.1: installed oo3.3, upgraded to a local build r1296612, then uninstall and re-install the r1296433 1. click File->open in openoffice then insert http://9.123.153.36/webdavand click Open 2. a dialog appears asking for username&password 3. enter correct username/password, then press Enter 4. the folder opened and I can see all contents 5. close it. do some other operations: copy image then paste...open/close... 6. click File->open in openoffice then insert http://9.123.153.36/webdavand click Open Nothing happened...
