By following the instructions in http://dotcms.com/docs/latest/upload-and-edit-via-webdav#Linux, I've created a webdav mount on my local using davfs2.
I've also made the davfs2.conf changes as mentioned there.

Now when I copy a simple file (a.txt) from another local directory to the webdav mount, that file turns into an empty directory with the same name as the file (a.txt).
cp myuser/localdirectory/a.txt myuser/webdav/, and when I go to myuser/webdav/, I see an empty directory called a.txt.

When I copy the same file, from the same location, to another local directory, it works perfectly.
This issue happens only when anything is copied/moved to the webdav mount.
Please help.

Hi Saz,

I'm having the same issue as you describe on my Linux machine after following the guide on the dotCMS site. Have you been able to find a solution? And, if so, how did you do to resolve the issue?
