Q: WebDAV access to wiki content

I like the feature that allows iOS devices to access documents and upload to the wiki using WebDAV. Is there any way to get WebDAV access for a mac or PC so that I can bulk upload files?

Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.7.4), Server

    Use the command-k connect to server in OS X finder then type in the URL and use your credentials and it will mount the WebDAV location as a share.

    I've just setup  clean, new wiki and added one picture file via the web interface as a test.  I can mount the wiki via the finder from another mac and open the file. So far, so good. However, I cannot modify the file, nor can I add additional files to the wiki by drag/drop.

     

    Any ideas how to change permissions on the wiki folder to make it the same as the webdav user shares?

    I would check what group the original wiki folder is a member of and add your user account to that group instead of the other way around which will probably break the wiki server.

    Hi Peter,

     

    I'm having the same issue saying that I don't have permissions to write to the WebDAV server with OS X Server 5.0.15 on Yosemite.

    I even added my account to the staff group because I saw that it is the group owner but to no avail.

    Were you able to solve this issue?

     

    Thanks,

    Andres
