Confluence WebDAV Plugin

We would like to migrate our users from sharepoint to Confluence.  However, one of the things that work really well in Sharepoint is being able to save Word, Excel & Viso files as mht files directly into a "documents library" in sharepoint.  Sharepoint & Office apps does this a WebDAV.

 Does this WebDAV extension allow the same kind of experience?

Don't stop at WebDav.

Use NetDrive (free if you search on internet) to map a drive to the webdav share

This allows you to do full Windows explorer actions on the files in the shared drive, like automated backups from a backup program, right-click actions like Winmerge Compare, etc. etc.  WebDav alone is a bit crippled once you start doing wanting to do poweruser file-manipulation stuff to the webdav files.

People having difficulty using WebDAV via Microsoft Windows, especially but not limited to vista, should apply this patch from microsoft

My issue is copying content from spaces to my local machine always ends prematurely. For instance, I've attempted to copy/paste and drag/drop one space in particular which is supposed to have 700+ files, but it always stops early at around 300. No errors, it just quits. The thing is, I'm a space admin with full permissions, and of course the confluence administrator in the confluence-administrators group!

My machine is Vista Business. 

I applied the MS patch, but receive the same results. I'm not using any special client software, just Windows Explorer. This seems it would be really cool, if only I could get it to work correctly.

Does anybody know about WebDAV authentication issues, when Confluence uses NTLM and LDAP instead of Internal Usermanagement?

Without NTLM and LDAP WebDAV is running nicely, but if i switch over it wont work properly. Some Clients will work (Total Commander + WebDAV Plugin) but the other ones like WebDrive or DataFreeway won't connect.

Is it possible to create a link in the Web UI that links to the WebDAV location of a file? That way you could click on a link for an attachment in the Web UI and have that invoke a remotely edited attachment via WebDAV.

One of the things we are looking for in Confluence is some basic doc control, if we use the WebDAV plugin will we be able to manage conflict - ie when two people open the same attachment, edit it, and save it back - what happens? Does the last saved version win? Does the second person to open the file get a warning? Anything?

I have figured out how to copy files over to confluence using WebDav.  Great.

What I would like to do is manage HTML content - so copy over and have it rendered properly when a user clicks on it.  What actually happens is that the files all get registered as attachments, so they are only viewable one at a time (with no relative links etc.).   Is there a way to do this?

My Confluence plugin uses WebDAV and I've identified some issues with Windows Vista and Office 2007. I describe a workaround on my Support Faq here:
http://benryan.com/?q=node/3#3
It's targeted towards my product but it applies to the WebDAV plugin if your accessing it from a Vista client.

We recently upgraded our Confluence 2.5.4 to an Enterprise version, running on a load-balanced environment with a Cisco distribution box frontending the webservers. It was working at one time and I am still using a Windows version of EngInSite Data Freeway (version 2.2.7), however; I cannot seem to make it able to work correctly with Confluence.

It states that it is connected in PC client log, present authorization, gets the charset correct; then states "Session closed" and "" .... "Client XXXXXXX detached"

This environment only supports https at this time. Some settings:

• Host (IP address returned from NSLookup of mywiki.mydomain.com)
• Port (443)
• Root Directory: https://mywiki.mydomain.com/plugins/servlet/webdav/

Does the webdav plugin work in the cluster environment or does this sound like a client problem? Thanks.

• Think I found the answer to my issue: Data Freeway does not appear to work with SSL (https) only services. Numerous postings on their support forum and some other net searches seems to confirm. Was able to use my client to get to other WebDAV hosts. I'll try to find another client.

WebDAV access is a great improvement - especially for designers to attach multiple designs to a specification page! Thank you.

The OS X WebDAV implementation seems to fail with the proper submission of file sizes. (each file is 0 KB in size)
I recommend using the free FTP/WebDAV client http://cyberduck.ch/ as "workaround". I think it's superior to OS X - but you'll have to decide on your own

Hey guys!

We have a user that is really interested in using this plugin, but we can't use it currently because v1.2.3 doesn't seem to support the custom authenticator we are using (Shibboleth Authenticator for Confluence). I noticed that there is at least one Jira ticket indicating that v1.2.4 might help with non-standard authentication. However I was just able to build the tag, and it still doesn't appear to be using the Shibboleth authentication mechanism used by our authenticator. I think this is the fault of the RemoteUserAuthenticator class in the Shibboleth Authenticator plugin (v1.2) not fully overriding the methods found in ConfluenceAuthenticator, specifically the following that are in use (indirectly via userAccessor) by the WebDAV v1.2.4's ConfluenceBackend class:

public boolean authenticateUser( String username, String password ) {
        User user = null;
        if ( username == null || username.length() == 0 || ANONYMOUS.equals( username ) ) {
            user = new AnonymousUser();
        } else if ( userAccessor.authenticate( username, password ) ) {
            user = userAccessor.getUser( username );
        }

        AuthenticatedUserThreadLocal.setUser( user );

        return user != null;
    }

As you can see there, it is expecting that the authenticator (actually userAccessor, which in turn uses the authenticator) supports authentication by username and password, but an authenticator doesn't have to support authN by username/password to work with Confluence authN (at least just to login to the wiki and do "normal" wiki operations). Specifically, a custom authenticator might (and does, in the case of the Shibboleth Authenticator) only override:

public Principal getUser(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)

as that is what Confluence calls to get the User (sometimes many times) on a page, and that way, Confluence never really has to know (for "normal" wiki operations) how to authenticate a user using username/password.

To provide further explanation, the Shibboleth Authenticator expects that an HTTP Header is set by the SSO (Shibboleth) which in our case redirects the user to a web-based login form, which expects that a human user is logging in, although I guess if someone wanted to they could automate that login process (via a post, etc.). And then the authenticator just overrides getUser(req, resp) which just checks to see if that HTTP Header is set, and this is secure because Shibboleth (or Apache which in turn uses Shibboleth) intercepts all incoming HTTPS requests (and we have all HTTP requests redirected to HTTPS).

So the problem here is that at least the Shibboleth we are using supposedly doesn't have any service that can be called to pass in a username/password that will authenticate that user, so we have no easy/secure way of using Shibboleth and using the WebDAV plugin.

This is no fault of the WebDAV plugin's necessarily. However, you might want to consider not forcing authentication via username/password if the current user is already authenticated. But, this is something for everyone to keep in mind I guess.

Hope this helps (and sorry for all of the edits this morning to this comment).

To enable "Edit in Word" or "Launch Office for this document" functionality, you can create two user macros:

First, one without a body which you must use once at the beginning of any page for which you want this functionality. I call it "enable-webdav-links":

<script>
String.prototype.endsWith = function(str)
{return (this.match(str+"$")==str)}

function openDocument(url) {
// adapted from http://sharingpoint.blogspot.com/2006/05/enabling-edit-in-microsoft-word.html

var objEditor;
if (url.endsWith(".doc"))
{
objEditor = new ActiveXObject("Word.Application");
objEditor.Visible = true;
objEditor.Documents.Open(url);
}
else if (url.endsWith(".xls"))
{
objEditor = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application");
objEditor.Visible = true;
objEditor.Workbooks.Open(url);
}
else if (url.endsWith(".ppt"))
{
objEditor = new ActiveXObject("PowerPoint.Application");
objEditor.Visible = true;
objEditor.Presentations.Open(url);
}
else if (url.endsWith(".vsd"))
{
objEditor = new ActiveXObject("Visio.Application");
objEditor.Visible = true;
objEditor.Presentations.Open(url);
}
}
</script>

Second, an HTML macro with a body, which you use to create a link, I call it "webdav-link":

<a href='javascript:openDocument("http://confluence/plugins/servlet/webdav/Global$param0");'>$body</a>

Now you can create a link on any page using markup similar to:

{webdav-link:/Test%20Space/Home/My%20Document.xls}Click here to edit in Excel{webdav-link}

When you click the link in Internet Explorer (sorry, no joy in Firefox), Excel will start up and open the document using WebDAV. If you make changes and click save, a new version is registered in Confluence and visible in the attachement history. Just as good as Sharepoint!

If anyone can provide macro code that will enable this to use standard Confluence link notation and relative links (e.g. "^My Document.xls") please post this!

Hi, is there a way to obtain the Webdav Path for any given Page? I'd like to generate a link  for each page which takes the user the correct place on the file system.

 Thanks for your help.

 Cheers

 Thomas

Is there a way to infer / get the webdav path from within a page? I want to be able to add a link to a file or to a page's webdav folder on the page itself, so that people can use webdav to work on attachments.

Edit: sorry, I didn't see Thomas' request, which is identical to mine.

Does anybody know how far the progress for WebDAV 2.0 is? I heard it is beeing rewritten at the moment, am I right? A alpha .jar available for testing?

Thanks

Thanks for the update to 2.0 webdav. Now I am able to see uploads with foreign characters.

Version 2 ist great !

Works like a charm here. Even Windows XP webfolders work now and german umlauts are no problem anymore.

Hi,

I'm evaluating this plugin to support a special request of my client.
They want to open Word document attachments directly from Confluence and want to save the attachments from Word back to Confluence with a new version.
Hence to realize automatic versioning of attachments.

Is this plugin capable of doing it? I mean if an attachment is opened via the WebDAV client in Word and user saves, what happens to the attachment?
Is it the current version that is modified or a new version is generated?

Thanks for any hints.

Tibor

We are planning to use Wiki is the main Content Management System.
It is great that I can Drag & Drop folders and Files from the current Content Management system into WIKI via WebDav, so Wiki creates a page for each folder and add the documents in this folder as attachments of the page.
The current content of the page is:
>>>>>>>
This is the default content for the [Archive] page.

Attachments

{attachments}

Children

{children}
>>>>>>>>

However I would like to change the default look & Feel of this page so any page that WILL be created by the above method will have the same look & Feel
Can it be done? How?

Hi,

I am facing the following problem: When using Windows Explorer to connect to WebDAV server all pages of my space are listed properly, except those which contain attachments. All those pages with attachments are simply missing.

Since I wanted to use the WebDAV feature especially for uploading attachments in bulk operation I'd really like to see this functioning.

By the way: When I connect with FireFox the list of pages is complete. I can open the all folders and also see the attachments.

Anybody here who has an idea what this is?

Thanks,

Martin

Hi,

due to your documentation the Version WebDAV Version 1.2.3 is not compatible to any version of Confluence?!

Is CONF 2.10. the one and only which works with?

Kind regards

Stefan

My question relates to "Handling of very large attachments" - resume broken uploads, content-range HTTP Headers:

i tried to find out if the confluence webdav plugin supports the Content-Range http headers in order to resume broken uploads. As far as i get, it seems the HTTP method "HEAD" isn't implemented in the Confluence WebDAV server.

I experimented with the WebDAV Client from Bitkinex which supports "resuming of broken uploads": i simulated it by interrupting the internet connection during a long lasting upload. When the connection comes back, the webdav client tries to make a HEAD request (i guess to find out where to resume). Confluence webdav answers with a 404 - see debug log of connection

\[DEBUG\] &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; \[1\] <<< HEAD /confluence/plugins/servlet/webdav/Personal/%7Eadmin/hugefile.exe HTTP/1.1

Can anyone, probably from atlassian, confirm that these methods aren't supported? Is there a way to work with an upload manager to support users during uploads of large files?

My customers users arent that happy when a 1 GB upload breaks in the middle. When you ask why someone wants to upload such huge files into confluence: it is a research project creating a database on neanderthal fossils (nespos), and the files are HiRes 3D scans of theses fossils.
Anyone any idea how to treat this in a supported way?

OSX:

Does anyone know where the path to the opening application is set ?

I have opened the packagefile of Neooffice and deleted eveything inside. The opened the package content from Openoffice into the Neooffice packe. Openoffice worked like a charm.

If I can set the path to Openoffice then I don´t have to do it guerillia style.

Where is the path to the opening applications set for OSX ?

I'm receiving the error above after installing this pluggin:

And the application doesn't work anymore. I cannot access Confluence Admin to remove the pluggin.

Any idea!?

We're unable to add our Confluence site as a Network Place through the WebDav plugin, and if we try to browse to https://wiki.oursite.com/plugins/servlet/webdav, we get the following error:
