Digest Auth failed

[member1980]

Hi,

is there a bug using the digest auth? my cloud space provider may hav updated his server. Now the log shows

Failed to open url(https://webdav.server..com/calendar.ics): digest auth failed

Is there a fix available?

There hasn't been an update released for this component since early this year. If this is a recent problem, it's more likely that your provider no longerSupports digest auth. Support for other authentication methods is on my list for a future release, but given my current schedule, it will likely be a long while. :(

Please try to contact your provider to determine if this is the problem. Another possibility is that your username/password have changed.

Thanks for you superfast response. :) here is an additional info:

i guess IONOS changed the authentication method. :( NTLM support would help.

ftp or smb support would be nice, too. thanks anyway! :)

NTLM is just a bad idea. :( If you have access via SMB, you could mount the filesystem via HA, and use a local URL to access it. Either file:///… or http:///. It depends on where you mount it. I’ll try to give a more complete example in a few days when I’ve had a chance to look them up again.

[member1980]

local URL is valid, too? That's great!! Maybe this could be helpful in the documentation. :) Now i need to find out how to mount and where to point the file:// URL exactly 🤭

Updated documentation for the 5.0.0 release.
