Hi. I just installed the webdav extension for iis7.
when I try to mount a site using the following command "net use z: http://example.com" I get the following message
System error 59 has occured.
An unexpected network error occured.
I opend up fiddler and watched the request, and I am actually getting a 500 server error
This is driving me crazy, any help will be appreciated
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Detailed information:
The server is brand new clean install of of server 2008, there is nothing on it yet.
I have a folder c:\sites, which is the root where I will store several websites, each website gets their own folder.
I do not want to enable webdav on each site individually.
I do want to enable webdav to the c:\sites folder, so that I have one place where I can drop files for every website on the server.
Each site will be setup as their own website with a host header in iis. Each site will be located at c:\sites\sitename\wwwroot\
The webdav site will be setup a seperate site, pointing to the c:\sites folder.
For the webdav site I have all authentication methodes disabled except Basic Authentication
I have an authorization rule setup to allow all users
I have a webdav authoring rule setup to allow access to all content, to all users with read source and write permissions. I have webdav enabled on the site.
The webdav client is vista business.
I know that by default the vista client will not allow basic authentication without SSL. I have modified the registry to allow this.
I know that this setup is not secure. I am doing this for testing purposes at the moment and when I can prove that it works, I will secure it.
This server is not part of a windows domain.
