Today in my on going attempt to get DMX 4 installed I preformed an upgrade on our DNN installation and upgrade DMX from 3 to 4 as well.  The upgrade was a success however I am unable to use WebDAV from our web server which is being housed at a hosting company.  I am able to create new folders, and add new files to that folder but I am unable to use WebDAV to open up the file.  I am prompted for a username and password, and I have tried using my DNN and network logins and I am still unable to reterive the document.  Our documents are being sored as .resources and are located in an external directory from the website, but the network service account has modify to both the document and dnn installation folder, as well as all sub directores.  I have verified all the necessary config settings are in place and that IIS is setup correctly as per your installation documentation.  Are you aware of anything that needs to be setup on our firewall to allow for WebDAV to work and/or is there anything else that can be done to trouble shoot this?

Thanks,

Arick Helmlinger

Peter,

In my every struggling process to try and get WebDAV to work I have uncovered some additional information that may be of help for us.

1) As mentioned in another post this installation of DMX 4 was upgraded from 3-4
2) Running on my dev box where I am an administrator and everything is local after performing the upgrade I'm prompted for a login
3) Compared upgraded site to another local install of DNN4.8 where DMX was not upgraded and both IIS and the web.config match.  The non-upgraded site works as expected where the upgraded site does not
4) The upgraded site has well over 1000 documents but I'm only trying to open 1 file in Word.
5) Running under a different directory or running under the Portal/DMX folder produces the same result.
6) The Network Services account has modify of the DNN directory and sub directory as well as the remote directory
7) After changing directories re-indexed the site same results were given.
8) Copied the DMX folder from DesktopModules from the working to the non-working site still prompted for login when editing in word.
9) Using the DMX 4.02.01 module package

Let me know if I can provide you with any additional information on this.  I really do need to get this functionality working for us to even consider upgrading to the newest version of DMX.

Thanks,
Arick

Peter,

Yes I can do a regular download of the file.  When I select open the file opens in word and when I save the file will save.  This is true for both the public site, and my local dev box.
