Topic: Unable to send HTTP PUT command to Apache 2.2 in Windows

[saman]

Hi Gurus,

I have installed Apache 2.2.22 in Windows Server 2008 R2 Operating System. I want to upload a file using HTTP put command to "uploadtest" folder of the server

1. I have configured "uploattest" folder to accept file without any authentication (Anonymous_NoUserID On)

<IfModule alias_module>
Alias \uploadtest G:\DataImportSvc\UploadTest
</IfModule>
<Directory "G:\DataImportSvc\UploadTest">
<FilesMatch "\.(enc|xml|zip)$">
allow from all
</FilesMatch>

AllowOverride All
Anonymous_NoUserID On

<LimitExcept PUT GET HEAD POST OPTIONS TRACE>
Allow from all
</LimitExcept>
</Directory>

we are using .enc files so I allowed that file type

2. "uploadtest" folder has right permission to everybody.
3. We are using WindowsCE client to send file using HTTP put command . Use HttpOpenRequest to send files with lpszVerb = PUT

HINTERNET WINAPI HttpOpenRequest(
HINTERNET hConnect,
LPCTSTR lpszVerb,
LPCTSTR lpszObjectName,
LPCTSTR lpszVersion,
LPCTSTR lpszReferrer,
LPCTSTR* lplpszAcceptTypes,
DWORD dwFlags,
DWORD dwContext
);

4. We are getting error as "Method Not Allowed"

TTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed
Date: Thu, 18 Apr 2013 07:26:25 GMT
Server: Apache/2.2.22 (Win32) DAV/2
Allow: GET,HEAD,POST,OPTIONS,TRACE
Content-Length: 241
Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1

5. I tried enable WebDav in Apache and tried with BitKinex WebDav client and still gives the same error

I just wondering PUT may be barred by any other allowed module. Please find the modules allowed.

You have to load the DAV module and enable it for that directory
