WebDAV tip

I spent a little time last night getting WebDAV enabled on a database and server so that I could upload the latest version of Dojo as file resource design elements. Unfortunately it took a little more time than expected. Of course Jake has an article on how to set it up but the one thing which I missed for about half an hour of swearing was that you must check the design locking box in the database properties as well as everything else. The Administration documentation is ambiguous on this point from my view.

So hopefully if people are seeing the message “The HTTP method is not allowed for the specified URL” when trying to copy a file into the Domino database using Windows Explorer (or indeed the OS X Finder although the error message is somewhat less helpful there!) then a quick Google should find this page.
