[gentoo-user] Cannot copy directories into webdav

[Mick]

Hi All,

I have set up a directory to have webdav access like so using 
/etc/apache2/vhosts.d/00_default_vhost.conf:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName <mydomain.com>
        ServerAlias demo-site
        DocumentRoot /var/www/<mydomain.com>/htdocs
        <Location />
           Dav On
           AuthType Basic
           AuthUserFile /var/www/.basic_password
           AuthName "WeDav Site Admin Access Only!"
           Require user fred
        </Location>
</VirtualHost>


I can access and read files.  I cannot create files:

"Access was denied whilst attempting to upload webdav://<mydomain.com>/blah-
blah/test.txt"

I cannot create directories:

"A resource cannot be created at the destination until one or more 
intermediate collections (folders) have been created".

Any idea what I'm missing here?  The directory I am trying to write into is 
owned by apache:

drwxr-xr-x 3 apache apache  72 Jan 24 17:26 themes
