Word as WebDAV client

A

Alex Rakov

Hi,

I work at a webdav server. And i try to use Word as a webdav client.
But I have strange problem. For some files Word sends LOCK command and
works with them well. But for others it doesn't do it. My server responses on
OPTION command. But it doesn't help.

Maybe someone can clerify the question how to tell Word if the document can
be opened not in read-only mode

On the request:

OPTIONS / HTTP/1.1
Translate: f
User-Agent: Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider Protocol
Discovery
Host: mc13
Content-Length: 0
Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive
Pragma: no-cache

the service sends the following:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.1
Date: Wed, 14 Feb 2007 09:41:06 GMT
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
MS-Author-Via: MS-FP/4.0,DAV
Content-Length: 0
Accept-Ranges: none
DASL: <DAV:sql>
DAV: 1, 2

PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, LOCK, UNLOCK, SEARCH
Allow: OPTIONS, TRACE, GET, HEAD, DELETE, COPY, MOVE, PROPFIND, PROPPATCH,
SEARCH, MKCOL, LOCK, UNLOCK
Cache-Control: private

and on the second one as well:

OPTIONS /portals/portal45/webdav/1289/mysuperdoc.doc HTTP/1.1
Translate: f
User-Agent: Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider Protocol
Discovery
Host: mc13
Content-Length: 0
Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive
Pragma: no-cache

the response is

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
