[jira] [Resolved] (JCR-3076) Mandatory authentication prevents webdav client connections

Posted by "Jukka Zitting (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.

Jukka Zitting resolved JCR-3076.
--------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 2.3.0
         Assignee: Jukka Zitting

Fixed in revision 1173118 by allowing the webdav client to continue without repository descriptors if accessing them would require authentication.

A more complete fix would also modify the webdav server to always allow repository descriptor report requests without authentication, but that would require non-trivial changes to the way requests are currently being processed in the webdav server. Doing that would allow clients to access repository descriptors even if repository access otherwise is blocked only to authenticated clients. Let's handle that as a possible followup issue.
