           Summary: PropFind 404 error after MkCol succes
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.5.31
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Servlets:WebDAV
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: maarten.van.hulsen...@gmail.com


A propfind call on a resource returns a 404 error when executed after a mkcol
for the same resource. The mkcol should be preceeded with a propfind to trigger
the issue. 

Steps to reproduce - See the following access log;
  127.0.0.1 - - [06/Jan/2011:14:09:19 +0100] "PROPFIND
/webdav/output/f469e3d6-e536-4072-82da-d989acaf57a2/ HTTP/1.1" 404 1084
  127.0.0.1 - - [06/Jan/2011:14:09:19 +0100] "MKCOL
/webdav/output/f469e3d6-e536-4072-82da-d989acaf57a2/ HTTP/1.1" 201 -
  127.0.0.1 - - [06/Jan/2011:14:09:19 +0100] "PROPFIND
/webdav/output/f469e3d6-e536-4072-82da-d989acaf57a2/ HTTP/1.1" 404 1084

When the first request would be omitted, the third request would have been
succesful, as the following access log shows;
  127.0.0.1 - - [06/Jan/2011:14:10:39 +0100] "MKCOL
/webdav/output/81a97360-ea49-44d3-b764-d8c7e60e885e/ HTTP/1.1" 201 -
  127.0.0.1 - - [06/Jan/2011:14:10:39 +0100] "PROPFIND
/webdav/output/81a97360-ea49-44d3-b764-d8c7e60e885e/ HTTP/1.1" 207 628

Note: After a few seconds, the response to propfind for that resource is OK
again. This suggests this has to do with caching.

Note2: This situation sounds similar to call 21288 (FIXED - 'DirContext caching
problem with Dreamweaver 6 when recursively creating directories').

Reproducable using a jackrabbit client;

____
    HttpClient client = new HttpClient();

    String newDir = "http://localhost:8080/webdav/output/"; + UUID.randomUUID()
+ "/";

    // Comment out this request to make second propfind succesful
    HttpMethod propFindMethod1 = new PropFindMethod(newDir);
    client.executeMethod(propFindMethod1);
    propFindMethod1.releaseConnection();

    HttpMethod mkcolMethod = new MkColMethod(newDir);
    client.executeMethod(mkcolMethod);
    mkcolMethod.releaseConnection();

    HttpMethod propFindMethod = new PropFindMethod(newDir);
    client.executeMethod(propFindMethod);
    propFindMethod.releaseConnection();
