WebDAV clients send an initial HTTP OPTIONS request to determine whether a resource supports WebDAV, but the current mod_cgi that ships with Apache handles all OPTIONS requests itself - in effect preventing Zope (or any other back-end process) from acknowledging WebDAV support to the client. This patch was generated with the command: diff -C3 mod_cgi-old.c mod_cgi.c The included mod_cgi.diff file should be able to be fed directly into the "patch" program to update your mod_cgi.c file. We are working with folks in the Apache group to get a permanent fix into a future version of Apache. If you have questions or comments about the patch, please send them to the Zope mailing list at zope@zope.org. mod_cgi.diff100644 772 144 700 6731450051 11765 0ustar brianusers*** mod_cgi-old.c Fri May 28 11:08:38 1999 --- mod_cgi.c Fri May 28 11:09:12 1999 *************** *** 368,380 **** struct cgi_child_stuff cld; - if (r->method_number == M_OPTIONS) { - /* 99 out of 100 CGI scripts, this is all they support */ - r->allowed |= (1 << M_GET); - r->allowed |= (1 << M_POST); - return DECLINED; - } - if ((argv0 = strrchr(r->filename, '/')) != NULL) argv0++; else --- 368,373 ----
