I can't advise on owncloud, because I hadn't heard of it until now. In a |
| 9 |
vanilla apache installation you would need to do the following: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
1. Set up the dav, dav_fs, dav_lock USE flags in apache, remerge it and |
| 13 |
restart it. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
2. Check that /etc/apache2/httpd.conf shows: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
<IfDefine DAV> |
| 19 |
LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so |
| 20 |
</IfDefine> |
| 21 |
<IfDefine DAV> |
| 22 |
LoadModule dav_fs_module modules/mod_dav_fs.so |
| 23 |
</IfDefine> |
| 24 |
<IfDefine DAV> |
| 25 |
LoadModule dav_lock_module modules/mod_dav_lock.so |
| 26 |
</IfDefine> |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
3. Set up your vhost fs to enable webdav access to it: |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
<VirtualHost *:80> |
| 32 |
ServerName example.com |
| 33 |
ServerAlias my_example.com |
| 34 |
DocumentRoot /var/www/dev.example.com/htdocs |
| 35 |
<Location /> |
| 36 |
Dav On |
| 37 |
AuthType Basic |
| 38 |
AuthUserFile /var/www/.basic_password |
| 39 |
AuthName "My WebDav Site - Admin Access Only!" |
| 40 |
Require user My_User |
| 41 |
</Location> |
| 42 |
</VirtualHost> |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
4. Configure your corresponding modules.d vhost file: |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
<Directory "/var/www/dev.example.com/htdocs"> |
| 48 |
Options FollowSymlinks |
| 49 |
AllowOverride All |
| 50 |
Order deny,allow |
| 51 |
Allow from all |
| 52 |
</Directory> |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
5. Configure the installed webdav module file. I don't know what are the |
| 56 |
defaults but this is what I have in my /etc/apache2/modules.d/45_mod_dav.conf: |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
<IfDefine DAV> |
| 59 |
DavLockDB "/var/lib/dav/lockdb" |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
# The following directives disable redirects on non-GET requests for |
| 62 |
# a directory that does not include the trailing slash. This fixes a |
| 63 |
# problem with several clients that do not appropriately handle |
| 64 |
# redirects for folders with DAV methods. |
| 65 |
<IfModule setenvif_module> |
| 66 |
BrowserMatch "Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider" redirect- |
| 67 |
carefully |
| 68 |
BrowserMatch "MS FrontPage" redirect-carefully |
| 69 |
BrowserMatch "^WebDrive" redirect-carefully |
| 70 |
BrowserMatch "^WebDAVFS/1.[012345678]" redirect-carefully |
| 71 |
BrowserMatch "^gnome-vfs/1.0" redirect-carefully |
| 72 |
BrowserMatch "^XML Spy" redirect-carefully |
| 73 |
BrowserMatch "^Dreamweaver-WebDAV-SCM1" redirect-carefully |
| 74 |
</IfModule> |
| 75 |
</IfDefine> |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
6. Set up /etc/conf.d/apache2 to start the DAV option. In mine I have both '- |
| 79 |
D DAV' and '-D DAV_FS', but I don't know if apache-2.4 needs the latter to be |
| 80 |
explicitly started by apachectl or if it is loaded by the DAV module. |
| 81 |
|
| 82 |
|
| 83 |
Restart apache and you should be able to access the fs from a browser, with |
| 84 |
username 'My_User' and whatever password you have created with htpasswd. If |
| 85 |
you don't trust the network and therefore you don't want to be sending |
| 86 |
credentials in the clear, enable SSL. |
| 87 |
|
| 88 |
I hope I haven't missed anything important here. Have a look at the online |
| 89 |
apache documentation for more advanced settings, if you want to lock down what |
| 90 |
webdav will allow, otherwise keep an eye on your apache logs to see if there |
| 91 |
are any errors. |
| 92 |
|
| 93 |
HTH. |
