If you want to use the FileContentStore to store permanent data set
resetBeforeStarting=false
and use a JDBC store to store the structure.

There are several solutions possible, most of the time you want to do
something like that when
you have created a new user, new dossier or importing from a legacy system.
I would use a small java program (behind a jsp page if you want) to do
things like that.
Something like:
public static void main(String[] args)
{
try
{
HttpClient client=new HttpClient();
client.startSession("localhost",8080,new Credentials("dirk","dirk"));
// client.setDebug(10);
MkcolMethod mc=new MkcolMethod();
mc.setPath("/slide/files/dossier1");
client.executeMethod(mc);
PutMethod pm=new PutMethod();
pm.setPath("/slide/files/dossier1/briefing.doc");
pm.sendData(new File("briefing-template.doc"));
client.endSession();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
Make the dossier name a form parameter and let the jsp page return the url
for the webdav folder and that's it...
