LS,
Native apache WebDAV implementation is unable to reroute the root
directory
to another location.
The error returned was induced by experimenting with aliases in
different
directories outside the tomcat context, the logging revealed that on
that
specific url (via the alias) the webdav protocol is not available. After
several experiments conducted with paths, docBase and aliases I came to
the
conclusion that the only thing that was working is webdav enabled in
the
ROOT, without having the possibility to put your content outside the
webdav
folder.
Windows 7 (with my test cases) was not the issue, I also tried
cyberduck
webdav (great tool btw) gave the same responses.
What worked for my is the:
<servlet-class>
net.sf.webdav.WebdavServlet
</servlet-class>
Implementation 2 JARs put in the lib directory:
WEB-INF
+\LIB
+ jcl-over-slf4j-1.7.5.jar
+ slf4j-api-1.7.5.jar
+ webdav-servlet-2.0.1.jar
Plus the default webdav servlet descriptor in the web.inf , rootpath put
c:/tmp. Worked out of the box.
>From this I mapped drives from windows 7 and cyberduck and it al worked
great. Basic crud like you would expect.
Happy coding!
