Hello HowtoForge Community, I have been reading through endless documentations about WebDAV, and various tutorials, etc searching for a solution to the bug. Since I wanted to use the WebDAV function of ISPConfig badly. Yesterday I found the solution to make windows xp use the old version of the network devices manager. I had a lot of time today and made a quick how to: First we create a WebDav user: Now we can install our WebDAV drive in Windows XP. Go to My Network Places and click on "add a network place" Click on "Next". Click on "Choose another network location" and click "Next". now comes the workaround, usually at this point you type http://example.tld/webdav/ but to make windows use the old version of the network device manager simply type http://user: [email protected]/webdav/ without the space between : and pass Click "Next" Type your desired WebFolder name in the input-field and click "Next" Now make sure to put a check in the "Open this network place when I click Finish." and click Finish Now type in your user and pass in the inputs again and if you want put a check to make windows remember this. I hope this helps, have fun -Germinator
webdav access problem when I am trying to add network loaction in windows 7, I am getting the error the folder "folder you entered doesn't appears to be valid". I have tried all options like I have created a doc folder in /webdav/doc in ISPCONFIG control panel Now when I am trying to access the same by adding network location I have tried all possible combinations like http://user(actual user name)ass(actual password)@mydomain.tld/webdav/doc http://user(actual user name)ass(actual password)@mydomain.tld/doc http://mydomain.tld/doc but none of the above work. However one thing I have noticed which needs attention in particular that is "webdav folder is being created outsite the default /web folder. "Could this be the reason for the error? Please help.
No, thats not related. The webdav folder is outside of the web folder in ispconfig, as webdav is a separate service e.g. for sharing calendars and not meant to update or upload any files into the web folder. Which ispconfig version are you using?
I guess that the webdav modules are either not installed or not enabled in apache. Which Linux distribution do you use?
