Using webdav and uploading

Hi, I was wondering if there is a way which I can drag and drop files via a web folder and upload documents to the document table specified in my DAD rather than the default portal one. I know that this can be done using the PLSQL toolkit but this isnt really what im looking for. I want to upload via webdav. Does anyone know how I can do this?

Thank you Patrick!
BUT the emphasis is on "via web folder"!
Via web folder (WebDav) produces PROPFIND and not GET or POST requests on the web server so those requests have to be properly handeled by Apache.
There is a WWDAV_API_DRIVER which gets Apache input in these cases, but it's practically useless since one can't customize it! The package body is wrapped...
I stll wonder how one coud do it in PL/SQL.

  • Webdav and InCopy compatible?

    My company has had continual problems with file sharing externally.
    We tried Dropbox and Xythos. Dropbox lets you save multiple versions of the same problem which causes obvious problems when 5 people are working simultaneously. Xythos was giving our off-site mac user download problems.
    It's now been proposed that we use WebDav as our file sharing place. Does anyone know if this will mesh with InDesign and InCopy? I'm worried that the fact that you have to download a file will prevent the InDesign user from working while the editors are in InCopy. Or if there are multiple InCopy files in one InDesign file, only one person will be able to work on any of those at once, right?
    Has anyone used this software?
    Thanks!!

    You can access pre-calculated HTML pages in different ways:
    ·         Using the BEx Download Scheduler
    SAP recommends that you use the BEx Download Scheduler as an assistant when you download pre-calculated Web templates as HTML pages from the BW server. More information is available under Offline Scenario.
    ·         Using a Web folder
    As an alternative to the BEx Download Scheduler, you can also use the WebDAV Service of the document storage facility in the content management framework, to store pre-calculated HTML pages locally and easily. (Restricted) offline reporting options are available using this method. You can find further information about the WebDAV service under Implementing External Tools . See also: WebDAV (World Wide Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning). You can find additional information about this procedure under Downloading Web Templates Using WebDAVs and Web Folders

  • Can't upload files using webDAV

    hi guys. i have a bit of a frustrating problem. im trying to upload zip file (~50MB) to a file hosting site (in.solit.us specifically) and i'm using webDAV to do so. i have no problem connecting to and mounting the server, but whenever i try and add anything to the dav disk it give me the error:
    "you cannot copy some of the items to the destination because their names are too long or contain invalid characters for the destination."
    i freaking hate this error message, whenever i get it it is so unwarranted. my zip file is titled "one.zip"... so no the name isn't too long or any such thing. the compressed files inside this zip file are also of similar length and composition. when i try and upload anything, even a smaller (regularly named) doc file, finder gives me the same error. what's more, when i try and create a new folder within the dav drive the "new folder" icon pops up for a few seconds then immediately disappears. which is kind of funny because when i then try and create another new folder it names it "new folder 2" -- which then subsequently disappeared as well. last time something like this happened to me it was a problem with the disk automatically ejecting itself after a couple of seconds. this does not seem to be the case here, console reads:
    "Feb 11 18:55:45 localhost webdavd[1641]: /Volumes/dav mounted"
    and then, when i manually eject it:
    "Feb 11 19:15:17 localhost webdavd[1641]: /Volumes/dav unmounted"
    console does not lie.
    any help would be much appreciated

    Hi Bilinbaja,
    I am not sure if you are using FTP to upload the files, however this error can sometimes refer to a hardware issue. Please try to toggle the hardware acceleration by right clicking on a item using the flash plug in and selecting settings.
    Please let us know if this improves the performance as well as if this also happens on other computers, or if it still happens after you delete cache and cookies. Each browser has its own cache, Firefox's cache may also be longer. [[How to clear the Firefox cache]]
    Did this help? We look forward to your reply.

    hi shailesh,
    1.If you want to transfer documents to KM,go to the folder "/documents",open its Detail dialog box.
    2.Go to Settings->Properties.Click on 'Access Links' tab.
    3.Copy the WebDAV url and paste it in your browser.Open your KM Folder as a Web Folder after authentication for your credentials is done.
    4.Copy the folders from your file system to the server just as you would copy folders in Windows File System.
    Also transfering of contents using WebDav only transfers the content,metadata is lost in the process

  • Hi, I am using HP11 and iPlanet web server. When trying to upload files over HTTP using FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" that are bigger than a few Kilobytes i get a 408 error. (client timeout).

    Hi, I am using HP11 and iPlanet web server. When trying to upload files over HTTP using FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" that are bigger than a few Kilobytes i get a 408 error. (client timeout). It is as if the server has decided that the client has timed out during the file upload. The default setting is 30 seconds for AcceptTimeout in the magnus.conf file. This should be ample to get the file across, even increasing this to 2 minutes just produces the same error after 2 minutes. Any help appreciated. Apologies if this is not the correct forum for this, I couldn't see one for iPlanet and Web, many thanks, Kieran.

    Hi,
    You didnt mention which version of IWS. follow these steps.
    (1)Goto Web Server Administration Server, select the server you want to manage.
    (2)Select Preference >> Perfomance Tuning.
    (3)set HTTP Persistent Connection Timeout to your choice (eg 180 sec for three minutes)
    (4) Apply changes and restart the server.
    *Setting the timeout to a lower value, however, may    prevent the transfer of large files as timeout does not refer to the time that the connection has been idle. For example, if you are using a 2400 baud modem, and the request timeout is set to 180 seconds, then the maximum file size that can be transferred before   the connection is closed is 432000 bits (2400 multiplied by 180)

  • How can one  read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.

    How can one read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.
    1. Excel File is on My PC.
    2. And I want to write a Stored Procedure or Package to do that.
    3. DataBase is on Other Server. Client-Server Environment.
    4. I am Using Toad or PlSql developer tool.

    If you would like to create a package/procedure in order to solve this problem consider using the UTL_FILE in built package, here are a few steps to get you going:
    1. Get your DBA to create directory object in oracle using the following command:
    create directory TEST_DIR as ‘directory_path’;
    Note: This directory is on the server.
    2. Grant read,write on directory directory_object_name to username;
    You can find out the directory_object_name value from dba_directories view if you are using the system user account.
    3. Logon as the user as mentioned above.
    Sample code read plain text file code, you can modify this code to suit your need (i.e. read a csv file)
    function getData(p_filename in varchar2,
    p_filepath in varchar2
    ) RETURN VARCHAR2 is
    input_file utl_file.file_type;
    --declare a buffer to read text data
    input_buffer varchar2(4000);
    begin
    --using the UTL_FILE in built package
    input_file := utl_file.fopen(p_filepath, p_filename, 'R');
    utl_file.get_line(input_file, input_buffer);
    --debug
    --dbms_output.put_line(input_buffer);
    utl_file.fclose(input_file);
    --return data
    return input_buffer;
    end;
    Hope this helps.

  • Every time I try to upload a video to youtube (or pictures to blog services like tumblr) using Firefox, I cannot upload them unless I use the "basic uploader" function. Why and what can be done?

    Every time I try to upload a video to youtube or a pictures to a blog service, such as tumblr, I am unable to do so with the default uploading options (usually something that allows multiple uploads, etc). Instead, I can upload these media using their "basic upload" functions. Why and what can be done?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Error while  uploading stock using Mb1c and migo

    Return code 8 is not permitted with BAdI 'FAGL_PERIOD_CHECK'
    Can anyone help me?/
    Thanks

    Hi
    You will need the help of an abaper in solving this , as a BAdi FAGL_PERIOD_CHECK - Posting Period Check has been activated.
    Please check the implementation of the BAdi , i feel that it has not been implemented properly.
    This Business Add-In (BAdI) enables you to extend the existing check of open posting periods.
    The result of the period check is provided to you as a parameter (CH_SUBRC). In your implementation, you can derive this parameter again (for example, if a posting is rejected under a certain condition).
    The following values are allowed for parameter CH_SUBRC:
    0 Posting allowed
    4 Period & is not open for account type & and general ledger &
    6 No authorization for posting period & &
    This is a custome developemnt , so only the ABAper present at your end will be able to resolve it.

  • File download and Upload using SOAP in Oracle ADF

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a requirement of Uploading and downloading a file on a location. It is for uploading and downloading an Attachments for a user. I have a table in my jspx page for showing the current attachments and an option to upload a new attachment. When I click on attachment name, the file should be downloaded.
    The current implementation does this using SOAP web service. Now, i need to do it with ADF now.
    For Uploading and downloading, i have used FileDownloadActionListner on my page. I am not able to figure out how to use SOAP service in ADF to download or upload a file. what i have done is
    1. Create WebService Data Control with the exposed wsdl.
    2. Created .jspx page and binded the fuctions to the button.
    3. In managed bean class, i have written code to get reference to that web service and invoke it. I am assuming of making the currect call as the response object is not coming as null.
    Now i need to know:
    1. How to verify for the success response from a SOAP web service in the managed bean code.
    2. how to go ahead with the implementation.
    For Upload: I have filename, content and mimetype in the managed bean code function. but how to use those to make a soap call and upload a file at the location.
    For Download: I have DocumentId in the managed bean code function, and how to use it to download a file. How to get the SOAP response in managed bean code and how to handle it.
    Thanks in Advance,
    regards,
