Hi Asiri The xwiki-root-wabapp did not fix the problem I have with Microsoft Office 2007 it still only opens in read-only mode. The new wxiki-webdav-**.jar did however fix the permission problem :) I have asked for the extra work when I want tu use un released feautres :) - Karten Asiri Rathnayake wrote:

Hi Asiri
The problem has 2 aspects it seams.
1. The problem turned out not to be a vista problem but an microsoft office 2007 issue. I have googled for a solution and what I found was to copy xwiki to tomcat's ROOT directory but xwiki webdav does not like that. the $xwiki.webdav.getURL() returns nothing.
You should use the xwiki-root-webapp which was exactly meant to solve this problem [ http://maven.xwiki.org/snapshots/com/xpn/xwiki/platform/tools/xwiki-rootweba... ]
Deploy this war file as your root webapp and deploy the xwiki webapp as usual and you are good to go.
2. If I try to use the latest xwiki-webdav-1.8-20081218.123600-108.jar I
get this error when I try to reload my xwiki
Sorry, I should have mentioned this but didn't came into mind. The latest webdav version Uses XWikiDavFilter and XWikiDavServlet instead of DavFilter & DavServlet. So you need to edit your web.xml file accordingly. Open your /webapps/xwiki/WEB-INF/web.xml and find the following entries :
<!-- Filter used to 'steal' webdav requests made to the application root --> <filter> <filter-name>DavFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.DavFilter</filter-class> </filter>
AND
<!-- WebDAV servlet --> <servlet> <servlet-name>webdav</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.DavServlet</servlet-class> </servlet>
Then change them to :
<!-- Filter used to 'steal' webdav requests made to the application root --> <filter> <filter-name>DavFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.XWikiDavFilter</filter-class> </filter>
AND
<!-- WebDAV servlet --> <servlet> <servlet-name>webdav</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.XWikiDavServlet</servlet-class> </servlet>
I think you need to do both of these tasks to make it work. I'm sorry about having to drag you this long but it's a feature we haven't released yet, so there is some trouble... ;)
