Hi,

Thanks for your quick reply!

Maybe the real solution is just to figure out and fix whatever is
going on with the WEBDAV server and forget this patch.

I had a quick glance at the Apache2 config on this server:
grep -i dav /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
# redirects for folders with DAV methods.
BrowserMatch "^WebDAVFS/1.[012]" redirect-carefully

Google showed me some bugs occurring on other software where they said
the problems were happening because the redirect weren't handled
correctly. I haven't got a clue about this, but thought mentioning it
might ring someone's bell :)

With friendly regards,
Takis
