[users@httpd] WebDAV locking issues

I have setup WebDAV. I am able to connect via https through
basic authentication. My only problem is that it says,

	500 Internal Server Error

when I try to edit. My permission are the same for the filesystems
as it is for the apache server. Here is the config ...

DavLockDB /var/apache2-dav/DavLock

<Location /dav>
         Dav On

         AuthType Basic
         AuthName DAV
         AuthUserFile /var/apache2/file
         DavMinTimeout 600
         DavDepthInfinity off

         <LimitExcept GET OPTIONS>
                 require user admin
         </LimitExcept>
</Location>



Any ideas???

Thanks,

LDB

It is highly unlikely because there is really nothing in apache httpd
that cares about the ServerRoot with the exception of resolving
relative path references in httpd.conf.  More likely is that you had
some unix permissions/SELinux config/etc problem on the original path.

There was no error except on the client side, which was stated above.
I could not find an error anywhere in any of the logs. I am sure
it went somewhere but not to any of the logs as far as I know. Besides,
what is there to know?? Fact is, it could write to the DavLock path.

Can you please be more clear as to what was highly unlikely?

The only change I made was to the DavLock's path. The previous change
was from outside DocumentRoot, "/var/lib/apache-dav", to inside DocumentRoot,
"apache-dav".

I've been typing the names of specific Apache files in my Spotlight finder, but it only shows files associated with my XAMPP installation.

[users@httpd] Need Help Starting XAMPP > Apache on MacBook Pro

Posted by David Blomstrom <da...@yahoo.com>.
I just reinstalled the XAMPP program on my MacBook Pro and got the same error message as before - every program (PHP, MySQL, etc.) installed except Apache.

I copied the following from my Terminal program:

Password:
my-computer:/Users/[USERNAME] root# /Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/mampp start
Starting XAMPP for MacOS X 0.5...
XAMPP: Starting Apache with SSL (and PHP4)...
XAMPP: Error 1! Couldn't start Apache!
XAMPP: Starting MySQL...
XAMPP: Starting ProFTPD...
XAMPP for MacOS X started.
my-computer:/Users/[USERNAME] root#

Can someone tell me what to  do next? I'm not sure exactly where to begin trouble-shooting. Thanks.

That is highly unlikely.  The problem was likely something else.

You should also check to make sure you are looking in the correct
error log.  It is unusual to receive a 500 error without a
corresponding error log entry.

The error log says nothing.

I figured it out, though. Apparently, DavLock does not like paths outside of 
ServerRoot. That is unfortunate. :)
