|
|
Hi, I'm trying to use Abyss as a Calendar Free/Busy repository to share information between computers on my local network. The calendar program attempts to publish this information to the webserver via a PUT command which is always rejected with a 405 error. There are no scripts being run--I'm just trying to let the calendar program save a file to the webserver. Is this possible?
Thanks for your time.

All of the above :-) My main computer is running Evolution 1.5.7 under Mandrake 10.0. The webserver will be running on a Windows machine, and I also hope to publish FB info from my wife's XP box to the server.
As far as where to publish, I've tried the root dir, tried making a subdirectory, tried specifying a specific file, etc. All result in a 405 error in Evolution and the server logs. |

What is the scripting language that this calender program is on , PHP , Perl ect ? Also is that scripting language installed on the Abyss Web Server and does it have a valid CGI path , these are some common reasons of why its not working. |

I don't know what language the calendar programs are using. Both Evolution and Outlook are trying to save a file to the server with a PUT command. They aren't trying to run any scripts. I've done some research and an Apache server can be configured to accept PUT requests, but since I don't have root access to my Apache server I can't edit the .conf file. That's why I thought I'd try installing Abyss on one of my local machines and storing the files there.
In case it helps, here's the relevant line from the logfile:
[IP Addr/time/etc] "PUT /freebusy/ellen.vfb HTTP/1.1" 405 223 "" "Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider DAV"
The line from Evolution is almost identical except for the name:
"PUT /freebusy/ellen.vfb HTTP/1.1" 405 223 "" ""
Any ideas? |
