[SLUG] web dav setup

2010-05-13 Thread Ken Foskey 

I need to set up a simple read only webdav.   No security.   I installed
the dav_fs and it starts but I cannot browse to the machine.

Location /books
  DAV On
  Order allow,deny
Allow from All
/Location

Anyone got any hints.

Ta
Ken

Hey Foskey

Location /books
  DAV On
  Order allow,deny
Allow from All
Deny from none--- do you need this?
/Location

Also check your Apache error log. It will indicate denials.

2010-05-13 Thread Jobst Schmalenbach 

check whether the webdav lock db exists:

IfModule mod_dav_fs.c
# Location of the WebDAV lock database.
DAVLockDB /var/lib/dav/lockdb
/IfModule

check whether the module is loaded:

LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so

I am not sure whether it should be directory and not location:

Directory /books
  DAV On
  Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from ALL
/Directory

and make sure you have options indexes turned on!

As for a sane security setting use this as well

  AllowOverride none
  LimitExcept GET POST PUT
deny from all
  /LimitExcept
