« Hide

This may be related to ~~SAK-3278~~ and ~~SAK-3164~~.

I cannot connect to a personal resources folder via WebDAV if the user account (and thus the url) is an email address (I imagine the culprit is the at sign).

I have replicated this with Cadaver and Win XP WebDAV, connecting to local instances and also connecting to collab.sakaiproject.org (where email address is recommended as userid).

> /dav/user/ottenhoff@longsight.com does not work.

> /dav/user/ottenhoff%40longsight.com does work.

Is this a simple issue of escaping the WebDAV url displayed in the "Upload / Download Multiple Resources" page?

Patch attached.

The patch escapes all instances of the $user_id in the webdav template.

I believe this issue is now fixed in 2.2.0 with the eid/id changes. I tested on qa1-uk and the DAV address for my personal site used a unique id instead of my email address.
