eZpublish 4 and WebDAV - Doesn't work

Wednesday 23 April 2008 5:46:13 am

Hi,

I'm trying to enable webdvav on a test environment with eZpublish 4.0.

According to the documentation, I followed these steps:

1. I created a file "webdav.ini.append.php" in settings/override, this is the content:

<?php /* #?ini charset="utf-8"?

[GeneralSettings]
EnableWebDAV=true
*/ ?>

2. I checked the file site.ini.append in settings/override, it seem ok, this is the content:

<?php /* #?ini charset="utf-8"?

[ExtensionSettings]
ActiveExtensions[]
ActiveExtensions[]=ezwebin
ActiveExtensions[]=ezdhtml
ActiveExtensions[]=ezodf

[Session]
SessionNameHandler=custom

[SiteSettings]
DefaultAccess=ita
SiteList[]
SiteList[]=mysite
SiteList[]=ita
SiteList[]=ger
SiteList[]=eng
SiteList[]=fre
SiteList[]=mysite_admin
RootNodeDepth=1

[UserSettings]
LogoutRedirect=/

[SiteAccessSettings]
CheckValidity=false
AvailableSiteAccessList[]
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=mysite
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=ita
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=ger
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=eng
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=fre
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=mysite_admin
MatchOrder=uri
HostMatchMapItems[]

[FileSettings]
VarDir=var/ezwebin_site

[MailSettings]
Transport=sendmail
AdminEmail=sg@mysite.com
EmailSender=

[EmbedViewModeSettings]
AvailableViewModes[]
AvailableViewModes[]=embed
AvailableViewModes[]=embed-inline
InlineViewModes[]
InlineViewModes[]=embed-inline
*/ ?>

3. I edited the vhost config file, adding

		RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^webdav\..*
		RewriteRule ^(.*) /webdav.php [L]

and

webdav.mysite.com

Thi is the complete content:

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www2.mysite.com
ServerAlias www2.mysite.it www2.mysite.com www2.mysite.eu webdav.mysite.com
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/www.mysite.com/error_log

    DirectoryIndex index.php
 
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
        RewriteEngine On

        RewriteRule ^/packages/styles/.+/thumbnail/.* - [L]
        RewriteRule ^/favicon\.ico - [L]
        RewriteRule ^/robots\.txt - [L]
        # Uncomment the following lines when using popup style debug.
        # RewriteRule ^/var/cache/debug\.html.* - [L]
        # RewriteRule ^/var/[^/]+/cache/debug\.html.* - [L]
		RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^webdav\..*
		RewriteRule ^(.*) /webdav.php [L]
        RewriteRule .* /index.php
    </IfModule>
	
</VirtualHost>

It doesn't work. I treid with explorer in win xp, windows vista and in dreamweaver. There aren't error in the apache log.

Any idea?

Thx and bye

Thank you Kristof,

yes, I have an host in my DNS for webdav.mysite.com. I tried putting the rules after RewriteEngine On, but when I try to connect using win xp (I know that I have to create a special web folder connection, not simply using ie), the folder is empty, I cannot see any structure, and I cannot upload images or files...
