hi, ive already tried the webdav mailing list for help with this and no one has found a solution. the problem is im having trouble writing to a webdav directory on a fedora core 3 server running apache 2.0.52 with mod_dav loaded. when using cadaver i get the error: Uploading sage.usr to `/sage.usr': Progress: [=============================>] 100.0% of 329 bytes failed: 403 Forbidden ive also tried to use mozilla sunbird to publish a calendar into this folder and i get the same 403 error with it as well. apache runs as user:apache and group:apache. the permissions on the directory are: drwxrwxr-x 2 apache apache 4096 Mar 31 11:46 html in my httpd.conf i have the lines: DAVLockDB /var/lock/apache/DAVLock and <Directory "/var/www/html"> Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Allow from all Order allow,deny DAV on </Directory> apache has read/write access to the davlockdb directory the errors given in apache's error_log are: [Thu Mar 31 13:15:09 2005] [error] [client 192.168.1.200] Unable to PUT new contents for /sage.usr.
