Normally a WebDAV URL shows up as a network link within the table of root directory trees (c:/; d:/). I would like the WebDAV URL to be accessed from a regular folder e.g. c:/user/download.
How do I link the URL manually and/ or using the msdn WebDAV API for script configuration?
Thanks!
I dont know of any windows clients that can mount a drive into a local file system. A couple of options
Mount a drive like normal and then use a linked folder (ok, not a great option)
Use a file sync client to sync a local folder to the webdav server
There are a handful of sync clients around. Here's a new one that looks nice, although i havent used it - https://www.syncany.org/

I have searched for the answer to this question, and have found some similar results, but most seem to be interested in linking a file on an internal website (such as this one: An URL to a Windows shared folder). I am hoping to find a way to link a file on a public facing site.
On my windows server, I have several drives - for the ease of this, let's call them C:, D:, and E:
C: is, of course, the OS.
I have a file share for internal users (those on the same network) on E:. I have the file share location shared internally as \server\data.
I have a public facing website (through IIS) on D:. Let's say the website is located at D:\Website, with the default page being D:\Website\index.html.
Is it possible to create a link on the website that points to files on the E: drive? Like file://server/data/file.txt? Or would it be easier to move the website to the same directory as the file share?
it is possible , but \\server (Windows UNC port 445) is a port that was abused and is blocked by many ISP's for almost a decade now.
Your "public" most likely will not have access
file:/// will not work either , as to the user, that means the persons local machine
what you can do is create a virtual directory to your drive or network share in IIS and make sure in iis (optionally can you can enable use directory browsing)
ftp:// is also a possibility as well and what i think you should look into
I've downloaded the .Net Server and ajax library
We need to be able to edit documents directly from the WebDav Server.
I've succeeded doing so with the javascript code using MicrosoftOfficeEditDocument and JavaEditDocument
I'd like to be able to have in my pages a link as follows
\server\DAV\path\file
When I place a similar link like above, it doesn't open the file. When I copy link and place in windows run command, it opens
Is it possible to have direct links to webdav storage files for opening?
Also, Is there a planned solution for the jar file running in Chrome?
I've followed the instruction for https://java.com/en/download/faq/chrome.xml#npapichrome
This allows chrome to load the jar file, but They say they stop supporting.
To open a document from a web page your link must be HTTP or HTTPS, that is start with http://server/. It would not work with a network path.
In your case URL must look like http://server/DAV/path/file.ext
For example,on website www.A.com,I use native client filesystem,and save a File named file1.txt. And on website www.B.com, i access the same pexe by using CORS.But the website www.B.com create its own file.Not the same one on website www.A.com. And on my local computer, I find out in the \Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\File System directory, there are two directories named 001 and 002, obviously, they are created by www.A.com and www.B.com.I want to know how to share file between www.A.com and www.B.com
As you've found, the Pepper Filesystem (which is equivalent to the JavaScript DOMFilesystem) is per-origin to the module embedder, not the origin of the pexe. There is no way direct way to share the file.
One possible workaround is to embed your pexe using an iframe. That way it would always use the filesystem origin of the iframe.
When writing a Nautilus script, $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_SELECTED_FILE_PATHS gives the path to the file whose context menu has been clicked, for instance /home/nico/test.txt.
But when the file is within a WebDAV share, the variable is empty.
Is it a bug?
How to get the path for a WebDAV file?
My script is intended to be used for files on WebDAV shares.
I have just found this list of variables:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NautilusScriptsHowto
The one I was looking for is $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_SELECTED_URIS, it works on WebDAV too, returning for instance dav://admin#localhost:8080/alfresco/webdav/User%20Homes/leo/test.txt
Nautilus' $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_SELECTED_FILE_PATHS is only for LOCAL (mounted) files, and by design is blank for remote files, like $1, $2...
For REMOTE files, like WebDAV, or Samba network shares, FTP servers, (or any other location where $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_CURRENT_URI is not like file://...), use $NAUTILUS_SCRIPT_SELECTED_URIS
I have an application with 2 directories (books and export).
If we create a book or a page of a book in the application a directory is added with the id of the page (this is for uploading resources).
If we delete a page, the page (and it's directory) is removed from the database and the filesystem.
However this resulted in a session loss (even an application restart). I've looked up some thing on google and found the following link.
It seems to be a problem in ASP.NET 2.0 (and 3.5).
We are now thinking about writing a service that will clean up the directories at night.
But there has got to be another solution for this no?
Oh and putting the directory outside the virtual directory is not an option.
Try disabling the monitoring of File System. This will prevent your session alive.

Oh and putting the directory outside
the virtual directory is not an
option.
Putting the directory outside the virtual directory is the only solution I found (so far). What you can do, is to create a link (junction) in the file system so that the directory appears to be inside the virtual directory, e.g:
Our web site (virtual directory) is located at C:\projectX\website
the data directory (where we create/delete files and folders) is located at C:\projectX\data
then we create a link which makes the data folder available as C:\projectX\website\data
The link is created using the program Linkd.exe (available in the windows resource kit), with the following command:
linkd c:\projectX\website\data c:\projectX\data
Now c:\projectX\website\data is a link/junction which points to the real data directory. You can work with the link as if it were a physical directory.
E.g. in your web site you can access it using this code:
Server.MapPath("~/data")
And you can also used the windows file explorer and browse to C:\projectX\website\data. It appears just like a real directory.
There seems to be a supported hotfix which achieves the same as the article Sachin mentioned (turn off the file change notifications in a web site).
Check this article in the microsoft KB for more information.
But since you mentioned in a comment, that you do not have access to the server, I guess this will also not help in your case.
For storing data files that are frequently updated, created and deleted you need to use App_Data folder in the root of the web site. MSDN for App_Data folder states:
Contains application data files
including MDF files, XML files, as
well as other data store files. The
App_Data folder is used by ASP.NET 2.0
to store an application's local
database, which can be used for
maintaining membership and role
information.
Also check Q&A section for App_Data folder usage: App_Data folder question
I had the same problem. The solution is to externalize the session handling by using the ASP.Net State service. The only draw back is that every object you place in the session needs to be serializable, as it is transferred to the state service and back.
I currently do not have the possibility to provide further links, but google will help you, now that you know what to search for.
