Description

« Hide

E.g., read operations for https://dav.codehaus.org/dist/mule/ are allowed, but any attempt to modify it prompts a request for a client certificate (which is not the SSH key, of course). Xircles currently has no way to generate/upload one, as well as no documentation on the topic.

Client certificates are not required - it's just Basic Auth using LDAP as the auth verifier.

What account were you logging in with; and what client were you using?

Hi Ben - all people from the Mule project get this error. We can access the DAV area (https://dav.codehaus.org/dist/mule/) fine with Windows and Linux (perldav, cadaver) but deleting/writing always fails. I used my regular account name "holger" and the password I got via xircles for SVN etc. Others have experienced the same problems so I guess it's related to permissions, maybe they got restored wrong? We also had some symlinks in our directories that need to be deleted/switched etc. though we can get by without them too.

This can be closed, permissions are fixed. Thanks!

Thanks, permissions are ok now, and I also was able to write to both site and dist servers.

Just for reference, in my scenario it was a regular Win XP DAV client (the buggy one coming with the OS), which prompted for client certificate (to be installed in Internet Explorer) on any write operation.
