Hi Nick, >>You need a handler for delete. Your options are mod_dav, or a third- >>party >>module or script. If I am not wrong then the handler your speaking about is the scripts. I have already tried this. This works fine. But I would like to use this DELETE method without these scripts. Say for example, I give a file name(present in the server) to delete directly. When i try the above with my current HTTP server configurations If i give the following http://xyz_address/delete.txt then I get following response from the server Response from server: "405: Method not allowed" And in the packet capture allow header shows "POST GET HEAD TRACE" Could you please provide any input. Thank you in advance Satya Nick Kew wrote: > > > On 24 Apr 2009, at 08:48, Shob wrote: > >> >> Hi All, >> >> I am trying to configure the Apache HTTP server for DELETE method >> without >> using scripts for deleting. > > You need a handler for delete.
