The URL "/_vti_bin/shtml.exe/_vti_rpc" is what IE goes looking for if it doesn't recognise the response from a WEBDav compliant server. I have seen similar problems on TC5 in the past around 302 redirects from, for example, http://localhost/webdav to http://localhost/webdav/. Using a servlet mapping of "/*" rather than "/" seemed to fix things. I haven't seen this on TC4 but try it and see if it helps.
My XP box that I do Tomcat dev on is fully patched and I haven't seen this for a while. Whether those facts are related is anybody's guess ;) Mark > -----Original Message----- > From: Sundaram Mahesh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, August 23, 2004 7:22 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Windows XP as webdav client hangs while accessing > any non-IIS webdav server > > Dear All, > > We are facing some strange problems while accessing a webdav > share from windows XP as client. > > 1) Occasionally the "windows explorer" window hangs while > accessing one of the webdav shares and that window recovers > once i open a new "windows explorer" window and access the > same share or a different share.
