Webdav encounters 403 authorization error after upgrade to 1.8.29

[Forge36]

Device: Pixel 8a
Android Version: 14
Orgzly Revived Version: 1.8.29
Sync repository type (directory/Dropbox/WebDAV/Git): WebDav

I've downgraded to 1.8.28 and disabled automatic updates in the interim.

Note: I upgraded to 1.8.30 and I'm still seeing the error.

Thanks for reporting. If you could provide a step-by-step on how to reproduce this error, that would be very valuable. Also, please provide as much technical info as possible about the WebDAV server.

@Forge36 I just built an APK with just the WebDAV library downgraded, if you could try it out, that would be fantastic. To install it, you'll need to download one of the artifacts on this page, unzip the APK, transfer it to your phone and open it. (Or, if you have adb, you can use "adb install \<apk filename>".)

That works!

I'm running

• DSM 7.1.1-42962 Update 5
• Synology webDav 2.4.5-10131

As it turns out that's also out of date (but doesn't report so), I'm manually updating my server, which will allow me to update the webDav server.

I'll update if I continue to need the package downgrade after updating my server.

Edit: updating to

• DSM 7.2.2-72806
• WebDav 2.4.5-20131

Did not resolve this issue

For reproduction steps, what are you looking for?

[amberin]

For reproduction, just exactly what you are doing when the problem arises, and exactly what you are seeing. A screenshot is always good.

Obviously, something has changed in the library we depend on, so they could have a bug, and if so we should report it to them.

I'll downgrade the library for the next release, in any case.

Two workflows tested:

• Swipe down to refresh from the "Notebooks" menu

• In Settings > Sync > Repositories > WebDAV I tap Test connection

I can include full logs via logcat if you'd find those helpful. The only entry that appeared relevant was (adjacent logs not clearly related to sync)

Looking at the dependency commits: https://github.com/thegrizzlylabs/sardine-android/compare/v0.8...v0.9#

Only two looked functional

and

My URL does not contain spaces or percent encoding. Though I can't rule that out. The exists check is suspect combined with the other issue of some servers reporting 403 for non-existence.
