question : upload files to Slide content store
Hi
I have a question about uploading file to Slide by dragging the file from windows explorer to the webfolder.
I am setting Slide's Domain.xml so that the rootpath points to a directory , say ,
<contentstore classname="slidestore.reference.FileContentStore">
<parameter name="rootpath">D:/temp</parameter>
When I browse to my Slide web-app from IE (File -> Open as a WebFolder), after I logged in from the Log-in dialog box, I got to a my Slide content store. However, there are always 2 directories being shown there .
/files
/actions
If I drag a file to the root to copy a file from my local system to the web server, it always gave me the error : "Error occurred copying ..." (I guess it's the Unauthorized error). In order to successfully copy files, i have to browse INTO /files directory , then dragging the file over. However, if I do this , the file will be copied to D:/temp/files/myfile ...
What I want to happen is to 1/ be able to copy the file to my ROOTPATH as it's set up , without having /files directory being created . 2/ When I open to Slide webfolder, I don't want to have 2 directories (/files and /actions) being displayed . Is this something that we can do with the configuration files ? Thank you so much. - Chinh

Tomcat's WEBDAV vs. SLIDE
Posted by DTC <di...@yahoo.com>.
Hi
I am trying to figure out which one to use for my file upload requirements : using Tomcat 4's implementation of webDAV (delivered as a /webdav web application) vs. using Slide. I only need to open to webdav as a webfolder, and upload files by dragging them over from Windows Explorer to IE .
Has any of you ever looked into Tomcat's webdav servlet ?
By default, Tomcat�s webDAV does not have a configurable property where we can set the rootpath of where the files will be uploaded to (eg. C:/tmp). I think TOMCAT�s implementation �PUTs� the file based on a relative path to the webdav web app directory .
Right now, when you drag a file over to the webdav folder, it�s treated as a �PUT� method, and it will invoke �DefaultServlet��s service() to do the uploading.
Do you know if it is possible to set an absolute root path with Tomcat's webDAV ? Thanks .

When I looked into cms market two years ago, there where
lots of halfbacked or specialized solution, but none, that
really convinced me. Maybe some got mature, but I don't
know.

While you could build such a application on top of slide, I am not aware of
any free application.
At VS-C we are currently building something like this, but
its very specialized for our needs and its not free (at least for now).
You may have a look into Zope (www.zope.org), which is Open Source.
Its very powerful, but also very complex.

Hi everyone,
I'm new to slide and as I can see it provides server and client libreries to
build webdav file systems.
My simple question is: is there a free web application built over slide,
that I can integrate fast into my intranet?
Basically I need a document management platform, with authentication, folder
creation, file creation, versioning, search and so on...
Am I in trouble?
Has slide such as application?
Regards, Dariush.

Sorry, I thought it was obvious now. Try setting your rootpath to C:,
the filespath to /temp and the scope to /temp. Be aware that this
creates "users" and "actions" folders in the root of your C partition.

Re: question : upload files to Slide content store
Posted by DTC <di...@yahoo.com>.
Thanks for your response. I still have the problem that I described previously .
If I set my content store's rootpath to C:/temp
and if I have scope set to /files in web.xml , yes , I won't see /files, /actions/ and /users anymore, BUT when you copy a file over to the web folder, the file will be saved in C:/temp/files/myfile , not C:/temp/myfile as I want it to be .
I tried to set scope to "/" , but it didn't work either. Thanks.

As I said, have a look into Slide's web.xml file. There you will find
the answer to your question. In short, if you set the scope parameter
to "/files" only the contents in this folder will be exposed to the
clients.

As I said, have a look into Slide's web.xml file. There you will find
the answer to your question. In short, if you set the scope parameter
to "/files" only the contents in this folder will be exposed to the
clients.

Posted by "Dinh, Chinh" <di...@yahoo.com>.
Thank you for your help.
My question is still whether or not we can prevent Slide from showing the 3 ("virtual") folders (/files, /actions, and /users) to the user when he/she logs in to Slide ? I think Slide creates these 3 folders by default , and they don't physically exist in the content store, but showing these 3 folders to the users would cause some confusion ... Do you know if it's still a configurable thing to do ? Thanks . - Ch.

Have a look at the scope parameter in web.xml and the filespath
parameter in Domain.xml.
