eGroupWare’s filemanager content could be accessed by WebDAV for quite a while now by the URL
http(s)://myegroupware/filemanager/webdav.php/home
While this works quite OK for Linux and Windows, the build in WebDAV client of Mac OS X doesn’t talk with the eGroupWare server. The reason behind this is the fact, that the eGroupWare server only supports a rather simple version of WebDAV without locking. Locking prevents the so called “lose update” problem, when two clients try to work on the same file.
Today I found the time to resolve this problem and add locking support for the eGroupWare WebDAV client. This is a quick hack for me which only works with MySql as DBRM. Also locking is only implemented for the WebDAV server and not for the filemanager web-frontend.
To get it working you need to add a table to your database and patch your phpgwapi/inc/class.webdav_server.inc.php with the attached patch.There is still a charset problem (as always) to be resolved which seems to lay deeper in the the WebDAV code. This will get resolved in eGroupWare 2.0.
Have you found a way to sync calendars between a mac and eGroupWare.
I’m a mac novice, but the best i can do is a publish (to get things to eGW) but that overwrites everything that was on eGW (and fails to put any details about an appointment), or a subscribe (makes a read only iCal calendar) but I can’t get anything to actually synchronise…
Hi John,
there is no way to sync apple ical and egroupware atm.
