hi

i am trying to make use of mongoose as a webdav server on OSX.

While server.c builds well and i am able to connect via webDAV to the mongoose server, i am unable to write to it even after authentication.
how would i be able to get this to work with finder on OSX?

configuring something similar on apache requires me to have a "lock". How do i know if mongoose implements this?
thanks lots

Hi Benjamin, did you specify dav_auth_file? Do you use curl as a dav client, or Mac's Finder, or some other client?

Hi Sergey

Yes i did.

./server -dav_auth_file .htpasswd  -auth_domain test -access_control_list +0.0.0.0/0


I used Mac's Finder with CMD-K.

i have a similar setup with Apache, which i am trying to replace with mongoose, and the webDav is able to write.


i have tried with cyberduck and using that works.


Any ideas?

Mongoose does not implement DAV LOCK/UNLOCK methods, which are used by Finder (as far as I remember). That means, Finder can work in read-only mode with Mongoose.

Sure thing.

Right now, that is not on the radar though, so the only way to get it fast is to pay for the development.
Otherwise, wait.

Sergey.
