Problem with some virtual sites and WebDAV

I have a handful of virtual sites on a snow leopard server that have WebDAV turned on to allows the owners of the site to update them. Things were working fine until this weekend when a site owner informed me he has having problems. I use Dreamweaver CS4 to edit sites and when I set them up, I add my admin account to the WebDAV realm allowed to Read/Write and update the site. I confirmed the problem that the owner was having and had the same problem with WebDAV on that site. I quickly checked several others and found that some work fine while others give me an error. Here is the error message I get from Dreamweaver.
I checked the log files for the site and received no useful information. I also looked in /var/log for any entries with WebDAV (grep -i webdav *), and again get no useful information. I tried setting up a new site and got the same error. One thing that I did notice is that the site did not have it's ownership changed to _www and the other sites were and get a feeling that might be part of this. Changing the ownership of all files and directories to _www did not fix the problem.
I'm mystified as to why it works for some sites and not others and am not sure where to go to debug this issue and get it working again.
DNS seems to be OK on the server.
minime:~ admin$ sudo changeip -checkhostname
Password:
Primary address     = 207.65.119.2
Current HostName    = minime.theporch.com
DNS HostName        = minime.theporch.com
The names match. There is nothing to change.
dirserv:success = "success"
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

I'm also having the same issue. I have a feeling its related to a problem with spaces and Java, assuming that the "Top Sites" is generated with some Java application.
Maybe Septembers OSX update will help.

  • Problems with Safari Loading Sites and Photos

    For the past week (Feb. 2015) I've experience problems with Safari loading websites on my 2009 20" iMac desktop. Running version OSX Lion 10.7.3  4 GB.   Intel Duo Core 2.66 GHz
    Mac also will frequently not upload photos at websites like Yahoo News or Facebook.   It does this throughout the day.
    So, I downloaded Chrome, thinking it would be a better browser if Safari is not functioning.  Chrome is just slightly better, and when it won't load a website I get the following error message from Chrome: DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET.
    I'm debating taking the Mac to the Apple store for diagnosis or repair today, but if anyone else is experiencing similar problems, could you please offer some solutions as to what is going on.
    Thank you.

    Unless you have a good reason not to, you should update the OS to version 10.7.5.

  • Firefox-only connection problems with some SSL sites network-wide

    I recently starting experiencing problems with sites not loading in Firefox with the error "Connection was interrupted". I've consistently seen this problem trying to load accounts.google.com. The problem exists in both versions 3.6.26 (OS X 10.4 latest available) and 10.0.1 (Windows XP/7/server2k3). In every single case, other browsers on the same system (Safari, various IE versions) can load the same URLs just fine.
    I've already verified no proxy (FF and working browsers, all OSes), disabled ipv6 and preteching in network.dns, disabled all add-ons, deleted existing profiles, cleared cache, and cleared recent history. Existing articles suggest disabling DNS prefetch,

    Nope. Settings are default as far as I can tell. Validate a certificate if it specifies an OCSP server is selected, connection-fails-invalid is not checked.
    I resolved the issue after talking to my ISP - there was a DNS caching issue and I was getting an invalid IP for ocsp.thawte.com - but the behavior seems buggy. The OCSP server connection WAS failing (with a timeout) and per Fiddler FF just keeps issuing repeat OCSP requests before eventually giving up with the interrupted connection error. The "When an OCSP server connection fails" option doesn't seem to do what it says in this case; prior to getting the DNS issue fixed the only solution was to disable OCSP completely.
    Perhaps the problem is that the OCSP connection timed out rather than being refused or unresolvable, but recognizing multiple timeouts as a connection failure might be more user-friendly.

  • Huge problems with both Linksys site and HND

    Hello,
    As business user of CISCO products and for @home using Linksys by cisco WRT610N with the Mediahub ive always been a huge fan of your products and still support it every day, however, i have been talking 3 times over chat support now about the 2 problems i have and it seems no one understands what is going on.
    1) I updated the firmware on my WRT610N to the latest from january 2009, succesfull
    2) I installed LELA and run the Home Network Defender setup, product installed, got a serialkey
    3) I click on a device change its security settings and then : PRODUCT NOT ACTIVATED.
    Trying to log  in over and over doesnt solve anything and reinstalling i tried already 3x aswell, i had to use a different emailadress now everytime, very annoying.
    Apart from that, i couldnt use my original login on your site anymore i am getting the request a new password emails with a new pass and link but when i then try to login, it keeps saying that the information is not correct, over and over, repeated the process already 10x, no difference.
    Therefor im now using a brand new registed username so i can at least post about my problems and hope Linksys (CISCO) will fix these issues so we can all make sure things work perfectly as with Cisco business products.
    I hope to hear from anyone asap as i wanna get my problems solved soon,
    Kind regards,
    Michiel

  • Problems with some Muse sites not fitting iPads/tablets properly.

    I have just altered two of my Muse websites to have a 100% browser width slideshow, using the latest version of Muse.
    When viewing on a desktop it looks fine but on an iPad and other tablets, there now seems to be a gap down the right hand side of the whole website as I scroll down.
    I've checked the design and the width's of all backgrounds and other items are the same, with nothing overlapping that may cause this, so I can only presume it's an issue with the new 100% width slideshow?
    The sites can be found here: http://www.theroyalstandardely.com
    and http://www.pbmuk.net
    As I say on a desktop - no problems but it's when I view the site on a iPad and other tablets.
    Before the new version it worked absolutely fine and there was no need to build the site separately for tablet use.
    I just wondered if anyone else's has encountered this or could offer any suggestions to why this might be happening?
    Thanks

    It’s hard to say… after 10 minutes my firefox browser, laptop is still trying to load the page but the right hand issue may be your ipone trying to render the scroll bar.
    Off topic; open some of the images in a good editor like photoshop and cut them back to something less annoying in size… at least the ones on the front page.

  • 2 days ago I started having problems with some web sites that previously worked fine. They still work fine on other browsers. What happened & can you fix it?

    On the Times newspaper site I was using December 19 some of the features stopped working. Has Firefox made an update? I tried downloading Firefox 9.0 but the problems persist. At the end of the news articles is a comments section but this no longer displays in Firefox. There is a SuDoku feature in the Puzzles section which is no longer accessible by Firefox.

    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
    *Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
    Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.

    I'm going to guess videos buffer for a while also...
    Two possibilities, one is you should close apps on the iPad, the other is your internet speed is not able to handle the demands of a high speed device.
    To close apps:   Double click home button, swipe up to close the apps.
    To solve internet problem, contact your provider.   Basic internet is not enough for video games and movies.   Your router may be old and slow.
