Newbie Question
Hi, I am new to webdav and slide. I have a feasibility question: Is it possible to use webdav over SSL under tomcat? We have a project in which we transfer files via SSL and would very much like to add webdav support. Has anyone done this? It would be great if there were a wiki page or some FAQ about this.

webdav via slide and SSL
I tried posting this earlier, but it did not seem to work. We have a web-based file management system that works over SSL and would like to use webdav and eventually Slide with it. Here is my newbie question as I orient myself: It is possible to run webdav over SSL? Is there an FAQ/how-to someplace? This would be under Tomcat.

RE: Get sources from CVS
Hi! You should use the SVN repository here: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/slide/ You can use http://subclipse.tigris.org/, its a subversion eclipse client.

RE: webdav via slide and SSL
I think this should be a configuration option in your application server. I personally don't use Tomcat, but I think you can configure the slide webapp to use https settings... Have a look here: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/ssl-howto.html. Be aware that the standard https port is 443, not the one mentioned in the howto. max -Original Message- From: Jeff Gaynor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 29, 2005 20:37 To: Slide Users Mailing List Subject: webdav via slide and SSL I tried posting this earlier, but it did not seem to work.

RE: New webdav server - survey of interest
Hello, Regarding the webdav features, our partners are really interested on the basic webdav, ACL, Versioning, Binding and DASL features. Besides that, event triggering is a real plus on Slide although its not part of the webdav specs. We felt that the TxStore is a solid and consistent way to persist our content and metainformation despite Slide's lack of performance (we tested different DB stores against TxStore and, after the resources are loaded into memory, every store has the same performance). We have the feeling that Slide's frightening core architecture and the poor implementation of ACL (perhaps forced by the architecture) is the main reason of slide's less than optimal performance. We didn't felt necessary to use slide transactions features, although we have the feeling that this feature really helps on Slide's internal consistency. Like Michael Oliver said earlier, the ability to configure different stores might be important for integration purposes with other document management systems. What's missing on slide is a standard way of doing it... perhaps designing a SPI, or even better, support the JSR 170 for storage [southbound] (and while we are on it for interfacing with other software [northbound] would be really cool) Hope this helps, Miguel Figueiredo -Original Message- From: Jarrah Hands [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: sexta-feira, 30 de Setembro de 2005 2:13 To: 'Slide Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: New webdav server - survey of interest Davenport isn't too bad for small scale/ease of use, especially now that JCIFS is at version 1.2.4 and a little more stable.

We are building a webdav server with the following characteristics and would like to get an idea of interest from this group in using something like this. Features: - Webdav server supporting versioning but not deltaV - Simple java API to tie your apps directly (API will be similar to java.io.File api - direct and intuitive) - Meta-data stored in database, files on distributed file servers with redundant storage (every file stored on n-server nodes; automatic replication if node fails; dynamically add any number of server nodes). - Focus on performance, performance, performance (one of the shortcomings of slide is that it tries to be too generic). - Externally managed user definition with user and security API (not ACL protocol, but ACL/permission based security) - Every user has their own home dir. Ability to map to other directories, ability to soft-link to any directory (a windows-like network-folder model) Future versions will support full-text search and other features. This would be a commercial product.

RE: New webdav server - survey of interest
Hello! I've spent a lot of time trying to find the bottlenecks in Slide. It seems to be the extra stuff that makes it slow. After profiling once, I found the following: 1. Checking credentials is very expensive (done multiple times while accessing a resource) 2. Checking for locks is also expensive (also done all over the place) 3. DASL basicsearch is not at all efficient since it does not allow limit without orderby, and orderby loads _all_ results into memory which means properties as well, so there is major load on the store (JDBC in our case). I tried to solve this using Lucene's built in sorting feature, and that works great. Now, you don't have to check credentials on 5000 result resources if you just want to order them and take the first 10 (like give me the most recently modified items). I've got a patch in bugzilla for this, but I need to work on it a bit more to make it fit into slide proper 100%. Right now, it still contains some assumptions given our homegrown architecture. The stores principle is also very important here, especially the JNDIPrincipleStore.
