1: WebDAV Support package added to OpenACS
Posted by Dave Bauer on 02/16/04 06:32 PM
The WebDAV Support package has been added to OpenACS CVS repository, package-key is "oacs-dav". In addition the file storage package has been WebDAV enabled. There is documentation on adding WebDAV support for other Content Repository based packages in the oacs-dav package.

Thanks to Musea Technologies, Sloan MIT, Talli Somekh, and Al Essa for thier support in making this happen. Thanks to Todd Gillespie for his work on the tDAV AOLserver module that provides WebDAV support. Thanks to Nathan Folkman and Dossy Shiobara who worked on the original code tDAV is based on. Thanks to the tDOM project for the excellent XML support. Thanks to Bart Teeuwisse for testing tDAV and providing some great ideas and configuration code.

Awesome, Dave!

It's probably just me, but:

cvs -z3 -d :pserver:mailto:anonymous@openacs.org:/cvsroot co oacs-dav

cvs server: cannot find module `oacs-dav' - ignored
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot expand modules

Cathy,

I've added oacs-dav to the list of modules. You can now use:

cvs -z3 -d :pserver:mailto:anonymous@openacs.org:/cvsroot co oacs-dav

Where can I get tDAV? Musea's site mentions the code has yet to be released.

Hazi,

Good point. I should work on that. The tDAV code is included in the OpenACS webdav package. Its just one tcl file and it is much easier to just include it.

Sounds great - but doesn't appear to work with MacOS X webdav access - i get an error -43 (whatever that is).

I'll do some investigating...

Mark,

I updated the code. I had some incorrect regsubs in the code. If you checked it out from CVS update and try again and let me know what happens.

Great news!!!! Thanks to all of you.

Just one minor problem in the sql. In oracle 8.1.6 the constraint identifiers are too long. I've changed the create table: 
create table dav_site_node_folder_map (
        node_id      integer
                        constraint dav_site_fldr_map_node_id_un
                        unique
                        constraint dav_side_fldr_map_node_id_fk
                        references apm_packages,
        folder_id       integer
                        constraint dav_impls_folder_id_fk
                        references cr_folders,
        enabled_p       char(1)
                        constraint dav_site_fldr_map_enabled_p
                        check (enabled_p in ('t','f'))
);

You are correct. I found these errors last night. I still have some issues on Oracle, I'll be checking in all the fixes for WebDAV support on Oracle today. Thank you.
