simple webdav servlet

[Torsten Curdt]

I was trying to expose a repository via webdav

    public final class WebdavServlet extends
      org.apache.jackrabbit.webdav.simple.SimpleWebdavServlet {

        private Repository repository;
        
        private File repositoryHome = new File("/path/to/repo");
        
        public Repository getRepository() {
                
                if (repository == null) {
                        try {
                                repository = new TransientRepository(
                                  "path/to/repository.xml",
                                  repositoryHome.getAbsolutePath()
                                );
                        } catch (IOException e) {
                            e.printStackTrace();
                        }
                }
                
                return repository;
        }
    }

The servlet and repo seems to start up just fine. But when accessing it at

 http://localhost:8080/webdav/repository/default

(mapped as /webdav/*) all I get is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<D:error xmlns:D="DAV:">
<dcr:exception xmlns:dcr="http://www.day.com/jcr/webdav/1.0";>
<dcr:class>javax.jcr.NoSuchWorkspaceException</dcr:class>
<dcr:message>webdav</dcr:message></dcr:exception>
</D:error>

In my testcases I never had to create a workspace myself and it just
worked with the following settings:

    <Workspaces rootPath="${rep.home}/workspaces" defaultWorkspace="default"/>

    <Workspace name="${wsp.name}">
        <FileSystem class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.fs.local.LocalFileSystem">
            <param name="path" value="${wsp.home}"/>
        </FileSystem>
        <PersistenceManager
class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.state.db.DerbyPersistenceManager">
          <param name="url" value="jdbc:derby:${wsp.home}/db;create=true"/>
          <param name="schemaObjectPrefix" value="${wsp.name}_"/>
        </PersistenceManager>
        <SearchIndex
class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.query.lucene.SearchIndex">
            <param name="path" value="${wsp.home}/index"/>
        </SearchIndex>
    </Workspace>

Any pointers? (I am using 1.5)

cheers
