Package: libnginx-mod-http-dav-ext
Version: 1.10.2-2
Severity: important
After v1.10.2-2 dav-ext dynamic module, Nginx no longer start: unknown
directive "dav_ext_methods"
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Since v1.10.2-2 where dav-ext has been converted to a dynamic module
package (found in the change log, Christos Trochalakis <yati...@ideopolis.gr>
Sat, 12 Nov 2016 09:18:12 +0200), Nginx no longer starts, configtest failed:
unknown directive "dav_ext_methods". If this directive is removed from the
config, majority WebDAV clients will receive HTTP error 405 due to missing HTTP
methods "PROPFIND OPTIONS".
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Tried upgrading uptil v1.11.8-1~exp1 still the issue exists.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Had to downgrade to v1.10.2-1.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Hope to be able to use back the dav_ext_methods directive in future
versions.
