Version

Contrib 10:
Contrib 9:
smeserver-mod_dav
The latest version of smeserver-mod_dav is available in the SME Contribs repository.


Description

This contrib provides mod_dav for SME Server, it has been written to make sure it is installed as it is required by my Subversion contrib.

Installation

Install the contrib:

yum install smeserver-mod_dav --enablerepo=smecontribs

Configuration

DAV access is disabled for all ibays by default.

Enable/disable DAV access for an ibay

To enable DAV access to an ibay use the following commands:

db accounts setprop ibay-name ModDav enabled
signal-event ibay-modify ibay-name

To disable DAV access to an ibay use the following commands:

db accounts setprop ibay-name ModDav disabled
signal-event ibay-modify ibay-name

ETag http response header (FileETag) settings

According to bugzilla:4482 there seems to be a problem when using Sunbird calendar sharing in DAV enabled ibays. To fix this you can define the FileETag setting to a value of none using the following command:

db accounts setprop ibay-name ModDav-FileETag none

More information on possible FileETag options can be found in the Apache documentation.

Usage

Accessing a DAV enabled ibay

DAV-enabled Ibays can be accessed in any of several ways:

through Windows My Network Places
  1. Open "My Network Places"
  2. Select "Add a network place"
  3. Choose "Next"
  4. Choose "Another network location"
  5. Enter the address to your DAV enabled ibay, for instance http://server/data or https://server/data
through Internet Explorer

According to this post you can allow Windows/Internet Explorer users to open your DAV-enabled Ibays in Explorer for read-write access directly from your website by using code similar to the lines below.

As a (normal) link:

<a href="http://localhost/data/">Link to folder</a>

As a webfolder:

<a href="" folder="http://localhost/data/">Link to data folder</a>
