Windows Explorer Issue #37

Open Zetanova opened 2 years ago

Zetanova commented 2 years ago

I tried now dave over docker local and over https (k8s nginx ingress)

WebDav clients like filestash online demo can connect without issues, but Windows 10 Explorer is reporting an error after user-credentials

"The folder you entered does not appear to be valid. Please choose abother"

Is this really a dave issue? Is someone with Windows 10 able to reproduce this? Are there any »unusal« characters used in your folder that might break windows 🤔

Zetanova commented 1 year ago

It was a blank usage of the dave container image. I didn't investigate more then this.

mischah commented 1 year ago

I don’t think that one of the maintainers will investigate further, as long this is the only report of this kinda issue (and windows only) 🧐

Guess we should leave this open and wait for others to possible stumble on this (in case that’s a bug).

Hi! This may happen if the WebClient service is not running on your machine. Can you maybe check this?

I also have a problem connecting with explorer.exe on windows 10, but i have a different issue with credentials, guess ill open a separate issue

divinity76 commented 1 year ago

from what i can tell, there is a problem with how windows 10 handles authentication in OPTIONS and PROPPATCH requests: https://github.com/micromata/dave/issues/47#issuecomment-1480962077

and the problem goes away if you disable authentication entirely (i.e delete all the users, or use https://github.com/micromata/dave/pull/50 to whitelist your ip)

i sure am hoping for a better solution than "disable authentication" though.. "ip whitelist" is slightly better, but still not ideal.

divinity76 commented 1 year ago

btw is anyone able to mount Dave with authentication in any windows version at all?
