Re-uploading to WebDAV fails #128

Closed tuetschek closed 3 years ago

tuetschek commented 3 years ago

Whenever I try to reupload an annotated PDF to WebDAV, I get a SardineException saying "Error contacting https://<my WebDAV>/zotero/<ID string>.prop (404 Not Found)". When I look at the server, I can see that that file really isn't there, but I can see a file called <ID string>_NEW.prop. Downloading from WebDAV works fine. I'm getting the same problem on 2 different devices. Sometimes the error is a 400 Bad Request instead. Am I doing something wrong?

The app uploads x_NEW.zip, deletes the original x.prop and then renames x_new to X.prop

It would seem the rename is failing. Some WebDAV servers dont seem to handle the rename request properly.

Which WebDAV provider are you using?

Hmm, that sounds like that may be the problem. I'm running my own WebDAV on a Raspberry PI, using lighttpd (version 1.4.53).

tuetschek commented 3 years ago

Looks like it might be related to this: https://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/2979 . Unfortunately there's no easy way for me to install a newer version of lighttpd (short of changing the distribution or compiling from scratch), so I'll have to live with it.

You might be able to work around the issue in https://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/2979 by configuring webdav in the top-level (global scope) of lighttpd.conf. However, based on your description above, it does not sound like that is your issue, as you are running lighttpd 1.4.53, not lighttpd 1.4.54.

Yeah, unfortunately Raspbian doesn't have anything newer at the moment 🤨. Thanks for the hint though – once I find the way to upgrade, I'll need to check the configuration.

I have the same issue with 4shared as my WebDAV. Any ideas?

gstrauss commented 3 years ago

Raspian is based on Debian. The latest lighttpd release (lighttpd-1.4.59) is available in buster-backports.

https://github.com/superjamie/lazyweb/wiki/Raspberry-Pi-Debian-Backports sudo apt-get -t buster-backports install lighttpd
