Description Fabien Tassin 2009-02-05 15:34:28 UTC
Please describe the problem:
On Ubuntu Jaunty, running gvfs 1.1.5 and nautilus 2.25.4, it's impossible to use davs:// ressources. I searched bugzilla but all bugs related to davs:// that i could find are tied to gnome-vfs, not to gvfs.

The davs:// url I'm trying to use works with the old gnomevfs-ls but neither in nautilus, nor using all the gvfs-* binaries in CLI.

My davs:// resource is not public (sorry), it's an apache2 with SSL, with a self signed certificate (not sure it matters) and with authentication.

I observe two behaviors when I enter my davs:// url in nautilus or using gvfs-mount (not sure why i get one or the other):

a/ nothing is happening at all

or

b/ after a few seconds, i get an auth dialog (nautilus) or a prompt (gvfs-mount), I enter my lg/pwd, then nothing.

when it's with nautilus, i sometimes get an error dialog after a long while saying DBus timeouts.

I end-up with a bunch of gvfsd-dav processes,that never die.

If it run gfs-mount in gdb and interrupt it, I get:

(gdb) thread apply all bt

This sounds like a duplicate of bug #586248: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=586248

Can someone confirm whether it is a duplicate please?

Does this still happen to you with the latest version of gvfs? If so could you please provide more debugging info for a sample session where this happens, by setting the GVFS_HTTP_DEBUG env variable to "all": 

 export GVFS_HTTP_DEBUG="all"

and then restarting the gvfs daemon with

/usr/libexec/gvfs/gvfsd --replace   [on fedora]
or
/usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd --replace [on ubuntu]
