Problem setting up an apache proxy to Zope's webDAV service.
Hi. I have the following rewrite rule in my httpd.conf: RewriteRule ^/webDAV(.*) http://localhost:1981/VirtualHostBase/https/coventry.mit.edu:443/webDAV/Virt... [L,P] This proxies webDAV requests for https://coventry.mit.edu/webDAV/ to the zope service running on port 1981. Attempting to open that URL in the webDAV client Goliath results in these requests being recorded in Z2.log: OPTIONS /VirtualHostBase/https/coventry.mit.edu:443/webDAV/VirtualHostRoot/ HTTP/1.1 PROPFIND /VirtualHostBase/https/coventry.mit.edu:443/webDAV/VirtualHostRoot/ HTTP/1.1 However, this results in a Not Found error. The full record from the error log is at the bottom of this email. It seems to be failing on an attempt to access https://coventry.mit.edu/PROPFIND. Why it has decided to try to access the webDAV method as if it were part of the URL is beyond me. I'd be grateful to anyone who could tell me what I'm doing wrong here. Alex.

Why don;t you just connect directly to zope on the port that webdav is running on and dispense with apache for webdav. or do you need SSL for webdav? <--> george donnelly ~ http://www.zettai.net/ ~ "Quality Zope Hosting" Shared and Dedicated Zope Hosting ~ Zope Servers ~ Zope Websites Yahoo, AIM: zettainet ~ MSN: zettainet@hotmail.com ~ ICQ: 51907738
