[Dav-linuxfs] davfs+zope+vim/emacs=trouble ;-)

From: Andreas Jung <andreas@zo...> - 2002-04-15 13:58

I got some reports from Zope users that are using Zope with Emacs/VIM
through davfs. At least for VIM I can reproduce the following behaviour:

- Latest Zope version is mounted with davfs-0.2.4
- I open /index_html with vim for editing
- I change the document and save it
- I change the document again and save it
- VIM shows a warning that the file was modified since the last save
  operation

I made some investigations looking at the WebDAV protocol level
but I could not see any indications that Zope behaves wrong (maybe 
I'm wrong). What I see is that davfs locks the file and issues
a PROPFIND request but Zopes response looks fine to me.

Could someone assist to solve the problem?

Thanks,
Andreas

Hello Andreas,

Did you lost some changes after second change?

I think the first saving looks fine. :-)

Hum. I think this is time stamp problem. Davfs uses dead properties to set the time stamp.
Is Zope configured to support full dead properties? 
After first saving, would you like to check time stamp of index.html? 

I guess Davfs has some time-stamp problem. :-)

I'll try to install Zope and test it tonight.

Thanks.

What are dead properties? In what properties does davfs stores the
timestamp.

Good indication.

Excellent - let me know when you need help. I am currently
maintaining the WebDAV part of Zope.

Did you have some success setting up Zope?

Meanwhile I made made some further investigations
but still could not find the problem. However there is
some strange think I noticed: when I do "ls -la"
on my local harddrive then ls shows the something like
"..Apr 19 10:53 foobar.c" but on the /mnt/zope
it displays "...Apr 19 2002 ..."...means the time
is missing. Looks that the corresponding code in davfs
might cause the problem?

Re: [Dav-linuxfs] davfs+zope+vim/emacs=trouble ;-)

From: Andreas Jung <andreas@zo...> - 2002-04-19 16:09

It might be a problem that davfs does not care  about
timezones in getlastmodified property. 'ls --full-time'
on the mounted Zope folder show me the date+time in GMT
instead of the local time.

[Dav-linuxfs] Notes about 0.2.4...

From: Sean M Alderman <sean.alderman@gr...> - 2002-04-03 19:30

Hi all,
	I just downloaded 0.2.4 and I must say things look good with it,
although it seems slow to me.  One note about compiling I noticed is
that on my RH7.1 box w/ 2.4.9-21 kernel I had to use the --with-kernel
option on the configure, otherwise I received errors about not finding
net/scm.h and net/ip.h headers.  I don't know if this is something with
my system or just something that needs to perhaps be updated on the
readme.

	Aside from that, I seem to not be having the proxying issues I ran into
before.  This is a good thing!  Authentication seems to work with or
with out the proxy.

One question I have regards needing to be root to run mount.davfs.  From
my perspective it's no big deal, since I have local root on my machine,
but for a person here who has a managed desktop (and wouldn't have root)
this is an issue.  When trying to run mount.davfs as a normal user, I
get a mount: Operation not permitted.  Our DAV server requires
authentication to maintain integrity of documents in a KM system.  When
the filesystem is mounted as root, all the files/dirs under the mount
point are owned by root and may not be readable by a nonroot user.  I'm
not sure what the logic is behind how linux permissions get assigned to
dav files, but I noticed that all files were not world writable and some
were not world readable.  I'd envision a linux user being about to mount
a dav server to a mount point in their home directory (or something like
that).  So is there a way I can accomplish this?  For instance, I could
have them put a mount command in their .profile or something like that.

Thanks.
