WebDAV PUT failing when parent directory locked

Hi all,

to avoid concurrent modification problems, I'm trying to use an
exclusive lock on a directory in the WebDAV repository. I can lock and
unlock the directory with no problems, but as soon as I try to PUT a
file in the locked directory, I get a 423 Locked response.

Here's the header from the Lock Method:

LOCK /jcr-webdav/repository/default/audit/staging/files HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/2.0final
Host: loire:8080
Content-Length: 238
Authorization: Basic FKOtaEWDFWEFRtaW4=
Depth: infinity
Timeout: Infinite, Second-2147483647

Response: HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Here's the PUT header:

PUT /jcr-webdav/repository/default/files/n1201787394075 HTTP/1.1
If: <b257cb01-0a63-4841-abe6-744b95f41ae2-F>
User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/2.0final
Host: loire:8080
Content-Length: 1480
Authorization: Basic FKOtaEWDFWEFRtaW4=

Response: HTTP/1.1 423 Locked

Finally, the header from the Unlock:

UNLOCK /jcr-webdav/repository/default/audit/staging/files HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/2.0final
Host: loire:8080
Authorization: Basic FKOtaEWDFWEFRtaW4=
Lock-Token: <b257cb01-0a63-4841-abe6-744b95f41ae2-F>

Response: HTTP/1.1 204 No Content

Those are in the sequence they were sent. What I don't understand is
why the unlock method is happy with the lock token but the PUT method
fails. Any ideas where I'm going wrong?

Thanks,
Brad.

IMHO, this needs to be

   If: (<b257cb01-0a63-4841-abe6-744b95f41ae2-F>)

See: <http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/rfc4918.html#if.header.syntax>.
