Hello Jan, indeed there's always a few PROPFIND (usually starting at / ) to find out about the DAV capabilities of the server (I guess, I didn't confirm this, but seen all DAV clients do the same thing), and then the 'real' requests are performed (LOCK, PUT, UNLOCK)
Even if it would make perfect sense to do the LOCK 1st and then the GET, when opening a file, I think it's more conservative to do the GET first, and only do the LOCK if the file could be gotten fine (GET succeeded). Maybe the LOCK, GET, UNLOCK sequence you are seeing is because there's some network (or other) problem when performing the GET and the file cannot be properly retreived? Food for thought. Good luck! 2010/9/22 Jan Pernica <[email protected]>: > Hello Fabian > > MS Word asks dav to lock the file. OO does not. :-( > I thought that I can ask client to send LOCK/UNLOCK.
