Hi,

Read carefully this document about webdav and supported clients. Especially part about Internet Explorer
http://pubsvn.ez.no/nextgen/stable/4.1/doc/features/4.1/webdav_readme.txt

You might also look on the article:

Hi,

We got Webdav working on 4.1, but the folders show up as images or some generic type. Folder class is standard, settings are standard, same thing happening for various webdav clients. Any ideas?

Thx,

Maarten,

We had a similar problem a couple of years ago. It ended up being caused by insufficient permissions for a folder which eZ Publish needs to write to for webdav - a temp folder I think. I'm afraid I can't remember (and the email traffic was to a corporate account which I don't have any more) exactly which, but it was under /var.

Hope this helps.

Hi all,

Thank you very much for your replies!

I've read the documents about the clients and decided to try WebDrive.

I've started with my existing installation (4.0) and immediately succeeded with WebDrive on Windows XP.

On Windows 7, WebDrive (like Windows Explorer) can't succesfully connect to 4.0, even after applying the mentioned Windows Update and registry tweaks.

For eZ Publish 4.1 I'll need to setup a new server to try again. Hopefully it is a permission issue like Paul mentioned.

If I find out anything usefull I'll post back.

Unfortunately I have no clue what can be causing your problem Sebastiaan. Did you try 4.0 as well?

Cheers,

Maarten

>> We got Webdav working on 4.1, but the folders show up as images or some generic type.

BTW, we got this issue on a installation that had been upgraded from 3.7 to 4.1.

Fix:

In \kernel\private\classes\webdav\ezwebdavcontentbackend.php:
1. Fix the display of folders: in the function isObjectFolder( $object, &$class ) we had to change $class->ClassIdentifier into $class->Identifier

2. Fix access to the Media folder: in the function fetchNodeInfo( $target, &$node ) we changes if ( $virtualFolder === self::virtualContentFolderName() ) into if ( $virtualFolder === self::virtualContentFolderName() or $virtualFolder === self::virtualMediaFolderName() )
