jackrabbit searchMethod - error 405 Method Not Allowed

[Mario S. Mommer]

Hello,

I'm trying to use the SEARCH method of WebDAV, which is supported
according to the documentation:

http://jackrabbit.apache.org/jcr/components/jackrabbit-webdav-library.html

However, when I try performing a SEARCH on the standalone server, I get
a "Method not allowed" (405) error (the code used is below). Other
methods work, however.

How do I enable the search method for a jackrabbit WebDAV repository?
Is there anything else I'm missing?

I'm using the latest stable version of Jackrabbit (2.12.2).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards, and thanks,

P.S: Here is the code I'm using to perform the tests:

                HttpClient client = new HttpClient(connectionManager);
                Credentials creds = new UsernamePasswordCredentials("admin",

                client.getState().setCredentials(AuthScope.ANY, creds);
                client.setHostConfiguration(hostConfig);

                System.out.println("Testing GET:");
                testGet(client);
