Symptoms

After an upgrade, editing a page using the WebDAV plugin fails, and error messages like the following are displayed in the logs:


    2009-07-29 15:46:42,017 ERROR [DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-1] [org.quartz.core.ErrorLogger] schedulerError Job (confluence.extra.webdav.confluenceDavSessionInvalidatorJob threw an exception.
    org.quartz.SchedulerException: Job threw an unhandled exception. [See nested exception: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.atlassian.confluence.extra.webdav.ConfluenceDavSession cannot be cast to com.atlassian.confluence.extra.webdav.ConfluenceDavSession]
    at org.quartz.core.JobRunShell.run(JobRunShell.java:214)
    at org.quartz.simpl.SimpleThreadPool$WorkerThread.run(SimpleThreadPool.java:520)

        \* Nested Exception (Underlying Cause) ---------------
          java.lang.ClassCastException: com.atlassian.confluence.extra.webdav.ConfluenceDavSession cannot be cast to com.atlassian.confluence.extra.webdav.ConfluenceDavSession

Cause

There are still cache entries that were created using the previous version of the WebDAV plugin, and which are not compatible with the current version of the plugin.

Resolution

Clear the caches using the "Flush all" link in the "Cache Statistics" section of the administration panel. A restart should also clear the caches and resolve the problem.
