RE: Solving problem with space in file names

Hi Ben, Marcus and all the helpful people on this mail list, Thank you for
your help, all very useful suggestions.

Since the problem really lies with the mod_dav module in Apache 2.2.25, in
the end, I installed the Apache packages from OpenCSW. This installs Apache
2.2.22, which does not have the broken mod_dav. It fixes the problem, but of
course I lose out on some other improvements in the mod_dav, and in Apache
itself.

The OpenCSW package is also "non-standard" as well as more convoluted, and
it starts and stops far slower (donšt know why) than the standard Apache
package. I would prefer a fix for the standard OpenIndiana Apache package,
and at your suggestion, I will ask the maintainers of OpenIndiana about
this. My understanding is that Apache 2.2.26 includes (in fact, reverts) the
bug in mod_dav, is that correct?
Update; Just now Ben told me that indeed, 2.2.26 includes the fixes.

As it isnšt immediately obvious how to get the OpenCSW package working with
SVN, and even less obvious how to get DB authentication (such as PostgreSQL)
working, I can detail the steps here or elsewhere, if anyone is interested?

Once again, great thanks to all the incredibly helpful people on this list,
and all your suggestions are excellent and to the point.

Best regards,

 Claes Jonsson

Another workaround which might be applicable for your setup is to use the
svn or svn+ssh protocols - they both avoid mod_dav at all. :-)
