WebDAV message
I also am getting a webDAV file system authentication message sporadically that i can't get rid of. I have shut down and/or restarted my computer and run repair permissions and those steps seemed to work for awhile, but now it's back. I don't have the install disk to run repair disk. Where did this come from? Thanks.
I don't have the install disk to run repair disk.
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), this will secretly run a Disk Repair while Gray Radian is spinning.

Error 101215 on some WebDAV messages
Hello all,
We are sometimes receiving a BEA-101215 error message when trying to send a PROPPATCH WebDAV message to our WebLogic 8.1 SP5 server.
The error only seems to occur when the body of the PROPPATCH message is large: just changing the length of a text string in the message would make a previously valid message go bad...
Does anyone have a solution for this? Would upgrading to a newer WebLogic server fix this issue?
I should add that the overall message body is still rather small, in the order of 1 to 2K...
We also have the same issue when PROPFIND messages are being used.
We never have this on regular HTTP messages like PUT, this only happens on WebDAV or WebDAV/DeltaV messages like PROPPATCH, PROPFIND, REPORT...
Thanks,You can't edit or print the photo because
1. iPhoto can't find it
because
2. You imported it from another volume while in Referenced Mode
So, iPhoto is saying if you want to use the picture give it the volume with the photo on it. -

I WISH I HAD NOT UPGRADED...THIS IS A NIGHTMARE. I need to sync my appointment scheduler that is embedded in my website to my ical (which was easily done through publishing with the previous version) since I have upgraded I dont have the option to publish...but can add the cal DAV account, which I tried to do but I get a "Calendar couldn't log in to the CalDAV server “webdav.skedge.me”." error message if I go through edit ccount> add other account in system prefereneces otherwise I get a not secure server warning that will not continue when I select continue if I simply try to add an account using the + sign options at the bottom left of the systems preference pop up window
found a potenital fix (that I think would work if I could understand how to do what they are telling me to do) it said to configure webdav sharing for active directory accounts...tried to follow the instructions...could not understand them (very techy instructions).

When i try to copy a file to my ipad via webdav, i get an error occurred message
I currently use a Mac Mini running Maverick and server. I have WebDAV set up I believe correctly. I have iWork on my iPad. I can log in and authenticate to the server and actually see the files that I have shared on the Mac server. When I try to retrieve it I get the following: An error occurred
Same is true if I create on the iPad and try to copy to the shared directory. Im not exactly sure what direction to take as the message is so vague. Any ideas or help is greatly appreciated.
ThxThat sounds like a problem with the user the iPad is connecting as
I seem to remember iOS pages, keynote etc storing the user login info, and having to completely remove the stored login info from the device
if a different user wanted to use a device another user had connected to WebDAV, or password changes.
Quite a while since I looked at this, things may have changed with latest ios pages versions
Unfortunately I can't remember how to remove the stored user login info
Try comparing the server logs when you connect with the windows box and the iPad
There are WebDAV file browsing apps in the App Store, try one of those on the iPad
If you can connect with it, it's probably pages etc storing a user login with an error in it
if not perhaps it's a network problem vlan segregation, firewall, subnet etc etc -
IDisk WebDAV error message - how do I get rid of this?
Years ago, I used to have an iDisk account. The iDisk link is still on my desktop. Starting 2 days ago, I keep getting this error:
"WebDAV File System Authentification
Enter your user name and password to access the server at the URL "http://idisk.mac.com/kristinamc_tda/" in the realm "idisk.mac.com."
My only options are to cancel and save. I press cancel and the message comes right back, so I cancel again and it stays gone for about 20-30 minutes. I have no idea how to get rid of this or why it started doing this. Since the account doesn't technically exist, I'm thinking that the password will never be correct - I've tried entering what I thought was the password, but it never accepts it. I have tried to see if removing the iDisk link on my desktop would make it stop, but I cannot get rid of it. I am trying to write a paper and this annoying error is about to make me freak out. Does anyone have any idea what I should do to fix this?
KristinaYou may also want to open Keychain Access in Applications/Utilities and delete any referrence to the earlier name.
I would send yourself an Email with the info in to keep a permanent record in case you ever decide to activate that name again.
A lapsed @mac.com name can be used in iChat for free so you may not want to go this far.

WebDAV File message constantly popping up
About every 3-5 minutes-twice in a row, if I hit cancel the first time- a message that says "webDAV File System Authentication" pops up and wants me to type in my username and password to access the server @URL http://idisk.mac.com in the realm idisk.mac.com (the username is already in the box). I don't know what this means and when I do type in my password, it responds telling me it's not the right username or password. Please help, it is driving me nuts!
Take a look through this thread to see if anything here helps:

WebDAV Error message when setting Properties
Hi
I have set up Oracle Drive to allow content to be uploaded to the Portal pages. This appears to be working fine however, when I right-click on a file to set properties I only see an Advanced Properties and not Set Properties as shown in the documentation. Clicking on Advanced Properties produces the following error message
"Advanced Properties is not supported by this server"
Can anyone help me resolve this issue please ? Is the Advanced Properties the same as Set Properties as stated by Oracle's documentation ? Is this a version issue ?
Thanks
KevinHi
Well after further analysis I have been able to set the properties for the item by clicking on 'Properties'. However I am also seeing an 'Advanced Properties' item which produces the described message when I click on it. Can anyone explain what functionality is provided by this?
Regards,

C: drive filling up after using WebDAV ("Remote dr...
Hi,
the C: drive on my E55 had very low free space at some point. I started the file manager and the memory details reported "32 MB" for "Other files". I looked around on C: using the file manager, but didn't found anything. I removed and reinstalled some apps, but it wasn't any better after this. I tried to find a setting which could be responsible for storing many stuff on C:, without luck.
Then I installed X-plore and set it to show me all files (hidden and system files). I found a "rsfw_cache" directory with a lot of big files without sensible names in it. I just deleted it.
Then I found out that it was created again and a large file was in there. I opened the file and saw a picture that I had taken with the camera and uploaded to the WebDAV server. I uploaded another picture which also showed up in this directory.
So it looks like even just uploading a file results in a local copy in a hidden cache directory which is not removed automatically, and even can't be removed on user request or with the file manager. So I gues that just _using_ the remote drive will break the device at some point, because it wouldn't even be possible to receive text messages when C: is full. Major bug, I think (at least I would handle it like a major bug, and I work as a developer for a quite complex firmware for an embedded device).
I don't know what firmware versions or models are affected. This is an E55 with firmware 034.001. Is this a known bug that will be fixed in the next firmware? Will there be a new firmware version at all, as the E55 seems to be discontinued now?
Another question: "Other files" still shows 14 MB. X-plore states that there are only 4,5 MB used on C:. Can some people with the knowledge tell me where the remaining 10 MB could be located and post some info what directories can be safely removed without losing non-recoverable data (temporary files, cache files etc.)? I already deleted the cache in the internal web browser and in Opera mobile.At this point I think you should get Applejack...

Secured WebDAV Mounted Volume Authorization Issues
I use a secure WebDAV mounted volume from myDisk.se and up until the latest Security Update have had zero issues being able to manipulate files and folders as I would on a normal volume. However, since the installation of the Security Update (2009-004 (PowerPC) 1.0) I find weird things happening with this mounted volume:
1) I am able to mount the secured WebDAV share using my security credentials.
2) I can create a default "untitled" folder but when I try to change its name, the WebDAV authorization dialog pops up and despite entering the same credentials (why, I am not sure as the volume has already been properly credentialed in order to be mounted), access is denied.
3) Trying to create a file within a folder on the mounted WebDAV volume I previously created pre-update causes the same authorization issue.
I have no other WebDAV shares I can try to mount from any other companies so I am not sure if this is a myDisk issue or one borne from the Security Update. I am not a .Mac/MobileMe user and that info is not filled out in System Preferences. The internal hard drive has been meticulously maintained with Disk and Permissions repair being run both before and after each and every software update installed. Likewise, the volume's structure is also checked both before and after and shows no need for repairs.
Any ideas? Perhaps there is a corrupted file somewhere that's affecting the authorizations needed by this third-party WebDAV volume?
The machine that has this problem is the last model iBook G4/1.33GHz 12" display, 1.5GB RAM, and a 100GB 5400rpm HD which replaced the stock OEM 40GB 4200rpm drive about one year ago.
I'm not willing to do an Archive and Install at this point as the loss of the WebDAV access to my online volume is not critical. Inconvenient as heck but not to the point where I'm willing (or able) stop my normal work to spend the hours it will take to get WebDAV access back.
Thanks in advance for any insights.same problem here with webdav, I can't mount my idisk from university network on Mac Pro 10.5.3 (although it mounts fine from home network on both ibook and PMG5 10.5.3). Everything was fine with 10.5.2 and I already re-installed 10.5.3 combo. Other bugs as well with .Mac prefs (keeps crashing, sometimes it shows the available space on idisk but still no mounting, with error -35 or -8086), but .Mac sync is OK

This is for information to help others
KEYWORDS:
- Sharing EFS encrypted files over a personal lan wlan wifi ap network
- Access denied on create new file / new fold on encrypted EFS network file share remote mapped folder
- transfer encryption keys / certificates
- set trusted delegation for user + computer for EFS encrypted files via
Kerberos
- Windows Active Directory vs network file share
- Setting up WinDAV server on Windows 7 Pro / Ultimate
It has been a long painful road to discover this information.
I hope sharing it helps you.
Using EFS on Windows 7 pro / ultimate is easy and works great. See
here and
here
So too is opening + editing encrypted files over a peer-to-peer Windows 7 network.
HOWEVER, creating a new file / new folder over a peer-to-peer Windows 7 network
won't work (unless you follow below steps).
Typically, it is only discovered as an issue when a home user wants to use synchronisation software between their home computers which happens to have a few folders encrypted using windows EFS. I had this issue trying to use GoodSync.
Typically an "Access Denied" error messages is thrown when a \\clientpc tries to create new folder / new file in an encrypted folder on a remote file share \\fileserver.
Why such a EFS drama when a network is involved?
Assume a home peer-to-peer network with 2pc: \\fileserver and \\clientpc
When a \\clientpc tries to create a new file or new folder on a \\fileserver (remote computer) it fails. In a terribly simplified explanation it is because the process on \\fileserver that is answering the network requests is a process working for a user on
another machine (\\clientpc) and that \\fileserver process doesn't have access to an encryption certificate (as it isn't a user). Active Directory gets around this by using kerberos so the process can impersonate a \\fileserver user and then use their certificate
(on behalf of the clienpc's data request).
This behaviour is confusing, as a \\clientpc can open or edit an existing efs encrypted file or folder, just can't create a new file or folder. The reason editing + opening an encrypted file over a network file share is possible is because the encrypted
file / folder already has an encryption certificate, so it is clear which certificate is required to open/edit the file. Creating a new file/folder requires a certificate to be assigned and a process doesn't have a profile or certificates assigned.
Solutions
There are two main approaches to solve this:
1) SOLVE by setting up an Active Directory (efs files accessed through file shares)
EFS operations occur on the computer storing the files.
EFS files are decrypted then transmitted in plaintext to the client's computer
This makes use of kerberos to impersonate a local user (and use their certificate for encrypt + decrypt)
2) SOLVE by setting up WebDAV (efs files accessed through web folders)
EFS operations occur on the client's local computer
EFS files remain encrypted during transmission to the client's local computer where it is decrypted
This avoids active directory domains, roaming or remote user profiles and having to be trusted for delegation.
BUT it is a pain to set up, and most online WebDAV server setup sources are not for home peer-to-peer networks or contain details on how to setup WebDAV for EFS file provision
READ BELOW as this does
Create new encrypted file / folder on a network file share - via Active Directory
It is easily possible to sort this out on a domain based (corporate) active directory network. It is well documented. See
here. However, the problem is on a normal Windows 7 install (ie home peer-to-peer) to set up the server as part of an active directory domain is complicated, it is time consuming it is bulky, adds burden to operation of \\fileserver computer
and adds network complexity, and is generally a pain for a home user. Don't. Use a WebDAV.
Although this info is NOT for setting up EFS on an active directory domain [server],
for those interested here is the gist:
Use the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in to configure delegation options for both users and computers. To trust a computer for delegation, open the computer’s Properties sheet and select Trusted for delegation. To allow a user
account to be delegated, open the user’s Properties sheet. On the Account tab, under Account Options, clear the The account is sensitive and cannot be delegated check box. Do not select The account is trusted for delegation. This property is not used with
EFS.
NB: decrypted data is transmitted over the network in plaintext so reduce risk by enabling IP Security to use Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)—which will encrypt transmitted data,
Create new encrypted file / folder on a network file share - via WebDAV
For home users it is possible to make it all work.
Even better, the functionality is built into windows (pro + ultimate) so you don't need any external software and it doesn't cost anything. However, there are a few hotfixes you have to apply to make it work (see below).
Setting up a wifi AP (for those less technical):
a) START ... CMD
b) type (no quotes): "netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=MyPersonalWifi key=12345 keyUsage=persistent"
c) type (no quotes): "netsh wlan start hostednetwork"
Set up a WebDAV server on Windows 7 Pro / Ultimate
-----ON THE FILESERVER------
1 click START and type "Turn Windows Features On or Off" and open the link
a) scroll down to "Internet Information Services" and expand it.
b) put a tick in: "Web Management Tools" \ "IIS Management Console"
c) put a tick in: "World Wide Web Services" \ "Common HTTP Features" \ "WebDAV Publishing"
d) put a tick in: "World Wide Web Services" \ "Security" \ "Basic Authentication"
e) put a tick in: "World Wide Web Services" \ "Security" \ "Windows Authentication"
f) click ok
g) run HOTFIX - ONLY if NOT running Windows 7 / windows 8

2 Click START and type "Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager"
3 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "WebDAV Authoring Rules", then click "Open Feature"
a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Enable WebDAV"
4 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "Authentication", then click "Open Feature"
a) on the "Anonymous Authentication" and click "Disable"
b) on the "Windows Authentication" and click "Enable"
NB: Some Win 7 will not connect to a webDAV user using Basic Authentication.
It can be by changing registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\WebClient\Parameters]
BasicAuthLevel=2
c) on the "Windows Authentication" click "Advanced Settings"
set Extended Protection to "Required"
NB: Extended protection enhances the windows authentication with 2 security mechanisms to reduce "man in the middle" attacks
5 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "Authorization Rules", then click "Open Feature"
a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Add Allow Rule"
b) set this to "all users". This will control who can view the "Default Site" through a web browser
NB: It is possible to specify a group (eg Administrators is popular) or a user account. However, if not set to "all users" this will require the specified group/user account to be used for logged in with on the
clientpc.
NB: Any user account specified here has to exist on the server. It has a bug in that it usernames specified here are not validated on input.
6 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "Directory Browsing", then click "Open Feature"
a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Enable"
HOTFIX - double escaping
7 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click your computer, then click "Request Filtering", then click "Open Feature"
a) on the right side, under Actions, click "Edit Feature Settings"
b) tick the box "Allow double escaping"
*THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT* if your filenames or foldernames contain characters like "+" or "&"
These folders will appears blank with no subdirectories, or these files will not be readable unless this is ticked
This is safe btw. Unchecked (default) it filters out requests that might possibly be misinterpreted by buggy code (eg double decode or build url's via string-concat without proper encoding). But any bug would need to be in IIS basic
file serving and this has been rigorously tested by microsoft, so very unlikely. Its safe to "Allow double escaping".
8 in IIS, on the left under "connections" right click "Default Web Site", then click "Add Virtual Directory"
a) set the Alias to something sensible eg "D_Drive", set the physical path
b) it is essential you click "connect as" and set
this to a local user (on fileserver),
if left as "pass through authentication" a client won't be able to create a new file or folder in an encrypted efs folder (on fileserver)
NB: the user account selected here must have the required EFS certificates installed.
See
here and
here
NB: Sharing the root of a drive as an active directory (eg D:\ as "D_Drive") often can't be opened on clientpcs.
This is due to windows setting all drive roots as hidden "administrative shares". Grrr.
The work around is on the \\fileserver create an NTFS symbollic link
e.g. to share the entire contents of "D:\",
on fileserver browse to site path (iis default this to c:\inetpub\wwwroot)
in cmd in this folder create an NTFS symbolic link to "D:\"
so in cmd type "cd c:\inetpub\wwwroot"
then in cmd type "mklink /D D_Drive D:\"
NB: WebDAV will open this using a \\fileserver local user account, so double check local NTFS permissions for the local account (clients will login using)
NB: If clientpc can see files but gets error on opening them, on clientpc click START, type "Manage Network Passwords", delete any "windows credentials" for the fileserver being used, restart
clientpc
9 in IIS, on the left under "connections" click on "WebDAV Authoring Rules", then click "Open Feature"
a) click "Add authoring rules". Control access to this folder by selecting "all users" or "specified groups" or "specified users", then control whether they can read/write/source
b) if some exist review existing allow or deny.
Take care to not only review the "allow access to" settings
but also review "permissions" (read/write/source)
NB: this can be set here for all added virtual directories, or can be set under each virtual directory
10 Open your firewall software and/or your router. Make an exception for port 80 and 443
a) In Windows Firewall with Advanced Security click Inbound Rules, click New Rule
choose Port, enter "80, 443" (no speech marks), follow through to completion. Repeat for outbound.
NB: take care over your choice to untick "Public", this can cause issues if no gateway is specified on the network (ie computer-to-computer with no router). See "Other problems+fixes"
below, specifically "Cant find server due to network location"
b) Repeat firewall exceptions on each client computer you expect to access the webDAV web folders on
HOTFIX - MAJOR ISSUE - fix KB959439
11 To fully understand this read "WebDAV HOTFIX: RAW DATA TRANSFERS" below
a) On Windows 7 you need only change one tiny registry value:
- click START, type "regedit", open link
-browse to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\MRxDAV\Parameters]
-on the EDIT menu click NEW, then click DWORD Value
-Type "DisableEFSOnWebDav" to name it (no speech marks)
-on the EDIT menu, click MODIFY, type 1, then click OK
-You MUST now restart this computer for the registry change to take effect.
b) On Windows Server 2008 / Vista / XP you'll FIRST need to
download Windows6.0-KB959439 here. Then do the above step.
NB microsoft will ask for your email. They don't care about licence key legality, it is more to keep you updated if they modify that hotfix
12 To test on local machine (eg \\fileserver) and deliberately bypass the firewall.
a) make sure WebClient Service is running
(click START, type "services" and open, scroll down to WebClient and check its status)
b) Open your internet software. Go to address "http://localhost:80" or "http://localhost:80"
It should show the default "IIS7" image.
If not, as firewall and port blocking are bypassed (using localhost) it must be a webDAV server setting. Check "Authorization Rules" are set to "Allow All Users"
c) for one of the "virtual directories" you added (8), add its "alias" onto "http://localhost/"
e.g. http://localhost/D_drive
If nothing is listed, check "Directory Browsing" is enabled
13 To test on local machine or a networked client and deliberately try and access through the firewall or port opening of your router.
a) make sure WebClient Service is running
(click START, type "services" and open, scroll down to WebClient and check its status)
b) open your internet software. Go to address "http://<computer>:80" or "http://<computer>:80".
eg if your server's computer name is "fileserver" go to "http://fileserver:80"
It should show the default "IIS7" image. If not, check firewall and port blocking.
Any issue ie if (12) works but (13) doesn't, will indicate a possible firewall issue or router port blocking issue.
c) for one of the "virtual directories" you added (8), add its "alias" onto "http://<computername>:80/"
eg if alias is "C_driver" and your server's computer name is "fileserver" go to "http://fileserver:80/C_drive"
A directory listing of files should appear.

HOTFIX - improve upload + download speeds
14 Click START and type "Internet Options" and open the link
a) click the "Connections" tab at the top
b) click the "LAN Settings" button at the bottom right
c) untick "Automatically detect settings"
HOTFIX - remove 50mb file limit
15 On Windows 7 you need only change one tiny registry value:
a) click START, type "regedit", open link
b) browse to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\WebClient\Parameters]
c) click on "FileSizeLimitInBytes"
d) on the EDIT menu, click MODIFY, type "ffffffff", then click OK (no quotes)
HOTFIX - remove prompt for user+pass on opening an office or pdf document via WebDAV
16 On each clientpc click START, type "Internet Options" and open it
a) click on "Security" (top) and then "Custom level" (bottom)
b) scroll right to the bottom and under "User Authentication" select "Automatic logon with current username and password"
SUCH an easy fix. SUCH an annoying problem on a clientpc
NB: this is only an issue if the file is opened through windows explorer. If opened through the "open" dialogue of the software itself, it doesn't happen. This is as a WebDAV mapped drive is consdered a "web folder" by windows
explorer.
TEST SETUP
17 On the client use the normal "map network drive"
e.g. server= "http://fileserver:80/C_drive", tick reconnect at logon
e.g. CMD: net use * "http://fileserver:80/C_drive"
If it doens't work check "WebDAV Authoring Rules" and check NTFS permissions for these folders. Check that on the filserver the elected impersonation user that the client is logging in with (clientpc
"manage network passwords") has NTFS permissions.
18 Test that EFS is now working over the network
a) On a clientpc, map network drive to http://fileserver/
b) navigate to a folder you know on the \\flieserver is encrypted with EFS
c) create a new folder, create a new file.
IF it throws an error, check carefully you mapped to the WebDAV and not file share
i.e. mapped to "http://fileserver" not "\\fileserver"
Check that on clientpc the required efs certificate is installed. Then check carefully on clientpc what user account you specified during the map drive process. Then check on the \\fileserver this
account exists and has the required EFS certificate installed for use. If necessary, on clientpc click START, type "Manage Network Passwords" and delete the windows credentials currently in the vault.
d) on clientpc (through a webDAV mapped folder) open an encrypted file, edit it, save it, close it. On the \\fileserver now check that file is readable and not gobble-de-goup
e) on clientpc copy an encrypted efs file into a folder (a webDAV mapped folder) you know is not encrypted on \\fileserver. Now check on the \\fileserver computer that the file is readable and not gobble-de-goup (ie the
clientpc decrypted it then copied it).
If this fails, it is likely one in IIS setting on fileserver one of the shared virtual directories is set to: "pass through authentication" when it should be set to "connect as"
If this is not readable check step (11) and that you restarted the \\fileserver computer.
19 Test that clients don't get the VERY annoying prompt when opening an Office or PDF doc
a) on clientpc in windows explorer browse to a mapped folder you know is encrypted and open an office file and then PDF.
If a prompt for user+pass then check hotfix (16)
20 Consider setting up a recycling bin for this mapped drive, so files are sent to recycling bin not permanently deleted
a) see the last comment at the very bottom of
this page:
Points to consider:
- NB: WebDAV runs on \\fileserver under a local user account, so double check local NTFS permissions for that local account and adjust file permissions accordingly. If the local account doesn't have permission, the webDAV / web folder share won't
either.
- CONSIDER: IP Security (IPSec) or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to protect files during transport.
MORE INFO: HOTFIX: RAW DATA TRANSFERS
More info on step (11) above.
Because files remain encrypted during the file transfer and are decrypted by EFS locally, both uploads to and downloads from Web folders are raw data transfers. This is an advantage as if data is intercepted it is useless. This is a massive disadvantage as
it can cause unexpected results. IT MUST BE FIXED or you could be in deep deep water!
Consider using \\clientpc to access a webfolder on \\fileserver and copying an encrypted EFS file (over the network) to a web folder on \\fileserver that is not encrypted.
Doing this locally would automatically decrypt the file first then copy the decrypted file to the non-encrypted folder.
Doing this over the network to a web folder will copy the raw data, ie skip the decryption stage and result in the encrypted EFS file being raw copied to the non-encrypted folder. When viewed locally this file will not be recognised as encrypted (no encryption
file flag, not green in windows explorer) but it will be un-readable as its contents are still encrypted. It is now not possible to locally read this file. It can only be viewed on the \\clientpc
There is a fix:
It is implimented above, see (11) above
Microsoft's support page on this is excellent and short. Read "problem description" of "this microsoft webpage"
Other problems + fixes
PROBLEM: Can't find server due to network location.
This one took me a long time to track down to "network location".
Win 7 uses network locations "Home" / "Work" / "Public".
If no gateway is specified in the IP address, the network is set to '"unidentified" and so receives "Public" settings.
This is a disaster for remote file share access as typically "network discovery" and "file sharing" are disabled under "Public"
FIX = either set IP address manually and specify a gateway
FIX = or force "unidentified" network locations to assume "home" or "work" settings -
read here or
here
FIX = or change the "Public" "advanced network settings" to turn on "network discovery" and "file sharing" and "Password Protected Sharing". This is safe as it will require a windows
login to gain file access.
PROBLEM: Deleting files on network drive permanently deletes them, there is no recycling bin
By changing the location of "My Contacts" or similar to the root directory of your mapped drive, it will be added to recycling bin locations
Read
here (i've posted a batch script to automatically make the required reg files)
I really hope this helps people. I hope the keywords + long title give it the best chance of being picked up in web searches.What probably happens is that processes are using those mounts. And that those processes are not killed before the mounts are unmounted. Is there anything that uses those mounts?

Dreamweaver 8.0.2 "Put" Issue with WebDav
Dreamweaver 8.0.2 "Put" Issue with WebDav
In Dreamweaver:
I am able to see all of the files in the local and I can see
all of the files in the remote. So here is the kicker....
Dreamweaver is only allowing me "Read" access" in the remote view.
When I try to "Put" files to the server I get an error that says
the put failed... "Access Denied" I am using the exact same
credentials in DW8 with WebDav.
In Windows:
In Windows (My Network Places) I use Windows XP's "web
folders" to bring up an explorer window of my remote servers files.
Read, Write, Edit, Delete works just fine from Windows "web
folders". I am pretty sure "web folders" are an example of a WebDAV
client. When I access the server (remote) folder via Internet
Explorer 7 and Web Folers (WebDav client) I am able to Write, Read,
Edit, Delete.
What we have tried:
- We gave full right access. Still did not work.
- We updated Dreamweaver to DW8.0.2 and it still doesn't want
to work.
Here is what an error message looks like in Dreamweaver
{Background File Activity - Detail}
Started: 5/2/2007 4:07 PM
Lean\5S\default.aspx - error occurred - An HTTP error
occurred - cannot put default.aspx. Access Denied. The file may not
exist, or there could be a permission problem.
File activity incomplete. 1 file(s) or folder(s) were not
completed.
Files with errors: 1

Any help here would be much appreciated!
Is this a Windwos rights issue, Microsoft IIS issue, or a
dreameaver issue?
HELP...HELP..HELP - Thank you.We found the answer.... We need to remove the extension in
IIS. In IIS you must go into the application configuration IIS >
Home Directory Configuration... > App Mappings > Remove
Extensions used. By removing the ASP, ASPX and SHTML extension APP
Mappings we were able to upload files to the site.
Website 2: Setting up a second IIS website devoted to
handling WebDAV requests. **** Read Item # 3 ***
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19095
Here is the cut of text from article.
Disable the ASP script server, the ColdFusion script server
or other script server you may be using. You do this by clicking
the "Configuration..." button in the screen shot above and removing
the appropriate DLL. This will prevent IIS from sending the
server-side script to the application server for processing.
Someone editing a ColdFusion page would want to see the
pre-processed ColdFusion code, not the resultant post-processed
HTML code.
Everything now is working just fine... Adobe Phone Tech

Outlook 14.4.8 on iMAC Retina and Yosemite 10.10.2 is not synchronizing with Exchange 2007 anymore (shows "downloading" but no new messages shown in inbox".
Accessing Mails with Webbrowser and from Windows Outlook is working correctly.
All Macs (also the ones with OS 10.6.8) do not anymore show any new messages in inbox.
Restarted Server, tried to disable autodiscover on macs and deleting/adding account and repairing database does not fix the problem. Also restarted server several times.
We have the same problem on 2 imacs retina with yosemite and on 2 mac pro with 10.6.8 and different office 2011 versions.
i tried to configure the exchange account in apple mail on yosemite and it also states "connected" and does list some folders but no new mails are getting in.
Windows clients and outlook on them works and syncs fine, and also when connecting via webbrowser at owa it must be a mac-specific/webdav issue.
exchange 2007 Sp3 Version 8.3 (bild 83.6) and Update Rollup 15 for sp3 (automatic updates "HIGH" for server and clients)
there is one update popping up again and again even after everytime successull installation: Windows Mlicious Software Removal Tool x64 - October 2010.
i tried to configure a new user with empty mailbox and configured it with microsoft mail (mac - yosemite) as exchange and was able to send a mail from there (even if quite delayed).
but there are not coming in any mails.
same exchange accounts triggered by imap do work and also via owa.
Exchange Accounts in Outlook for MAC and also in Mail (Yosemite) do show the folder structures but there is no mails showing up. I can send mails from the exchange accounts created but they seem to be processed with a delay of like 15minutes and outlook
is giving error "end of file reached" but messages are send after some time.
Does seem like EWS is extremely slow, to slow perhaps to sync and therefore ending in timeout.
Also i cannot reach the server from externally over ssl https 443. if testing port 443 of exchange from outside the port seems closed even firewall settings of sbs 2008 and sonicwall ports are correctly open.
could it be there is something in regarding webdav which is very slow and leading to timeouts ?
in application log i do have the following two information events every few minute:
The Exchange Web Services started successfully. Event ID 1
and

Since Outlook running on Windows works well, it seems an issue on the Mac side. I suggest ask Mac for help so that you can get more professional suggestions.
More information for your reference:
Please try to verify whether there is any expired certificate from the computer personal store.
If it is the case, please remove them.
Thanks

Can no longer mount iDisk with WebDAV
Since last night I can no longer sync my iDisk, or mount any iDisk form other users. I've read the support answer that if you get "Last sync failed" with the iDisk sync, you should run "fix permissions" and reboot.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303032
However, this has not helped me. I've tried this several times. This problem is specific to my intel MacBook.
- iDisk mounting and syncing works just fine with my .Mac account on another computer.
- I tried mounting an iDisk on another user account on this MacBook, but this didn't work either. I suspect this is a system wide thing.
- I checked the permissions of "webdav_fs.kext" on my MacBook and my text top system, and they are identical. The desktop works still, my MacBook doesn't.
- I also checked that this kernel extension is loaded, and the system says yes.
- if I try to mount someone elses public iDisk folder, I get the following error message in the console:
Mar 28 20:27:40 Dr-Schaubs-MacBook webdavd[705]: (SCDynamicStoreNotifyFileDescriptor(gProxyStore, 0, storenotifyfd)) failed; going to SCDynamicStoreNotifyFileDescriptor; file: mount.tproj/webdav_network.c; line: 741
ANY help here would be greatly appreciated. I've tried all I could think of.
thanks,
Hanspeter SchaubOk, I tries using the command line mount_webdav command. It didn't seem to work. I got no error messages, but no volumes were mounted.
I tried connecting to another (non-iDisk) web folder at bingodisk.com. This worked fine on my desktop, it doesn't work on the MacBook. This seems to confirm that this is a basic Finder webdav issue, not iDisk specific.
I looked through the system preferences to try to find any appropriate *.plist files to remove/reset. I tried removing
/Library/Prefernences/Network/com.apple.DotMacNotifications.plist
/Library/Prefernences/com.apple.networkConfig.plist
but this didn't do anything. Any ideas on what setting file might influence the Finder's webdav functionality?
If I try to do a iDisk sync in the Finder, the console give me the same message as when I tried to directly mount another person's public iDisk

I wonder which file it is trying to access here and failing??
