WebDAV installation

Hi,

I'm running a simple web server using Apache 2.0.47 on a FreeBSD box. To
simplify editing the web pages I would like to use WebDAV, but I seem to
be stuck somewhere. The relevant portion of the httpd.conf file:

LoadModule dav_module libexec/apache2/mod_dav.so
LoadModule dav_fs_module libexec/apache2/mod_dav_fs.so
DavLockDB /usr/local/var/apache2/DAVLock
DAVMinTimeout 600
Alias /dav /usr/local/www/data/
<Location /dav>
DAV On
AuthType Basic
AuthName "KDBruin.net WebDAV"
AuthUserFile /usr/local/etc/apache2/users.passwd
AllowOverride None
Options None
<LimitExcept GET HEAD OPTIONS>
require valid-user
</LimitExcept>
ForceType text/plain
</Location>

When I use sitecopy I can list the content of the /dav directory, but I
cannot retrieve/update/create any files. Any suggestions on what I'm doing
wrong?

Kind regards,

This looks good to me, what are the perms on the DavLockDB?

The dir where the DavLockDB is vreated needs to be writeable
by the web server "User".
