| Description: | filesystem provider for mod_dav |
|---|---|
| Status: | Extension |
| Module Identifier: | dav_fs_module |
| Source File: | mod_dav_fs.c |
This module requires the service of mod_dav. It acts as a support module for mod_dav and provides access to resources located in the
server's file system. The formal name of this provider is
filesystem. mod_dav backend providers
will be invoked by using the Dav
directive:
Dav filesystem
Since filesystem is the default provider for
mod_dav, you may simply use the value
On instead.
| Description: | Location of the DAV lock database |
|---|---|
| Syntax: | DavLockDB file-path |
| Context: | server config, virtual host |
| Status: | Extension |
| Module: | mod_dav_fs |
Use the DavLockDB directive to specify
the full path to the lock database, excluding an extension. If
the path is not absolute, it will be taken relative to ServerRoot. The implementation of
mod_dav_fs uses a SDBM database to track user
locks.
DavLockDB var/DavLock
The directory containing the lock database file must be
writable by the User
and Group under which
Apache is running. For security reasons, you should create a
directory for this purpose rather than changing the permissions on
an existing directory. In the above example, Apache will create
files in the var/ directory under the ServerRoot with the base filename
DavLock and extension name chosen by the server.
