RE: Dreamweaver and SVN 1.2 Locking

Great job guys on determining a solution. I was getting a bad feeling that
1.2 would be final in a matter of days before the problem was resolved. I am
now looking forward to trying out RC4 when it's released. :)

Mystery solved -- the Dreamweaver error you're seeing is indeed the
result of a recent svn 1.2.0-rc2 bug, we just discovered it and are
working to fix it now. I suspect it will be the main reason for
rc4. :-)

Specifically, Dreameweaver was sending a dav 'owner' field in the
lock request which looked like this:

        <D:owner><D:href>markphip</D:href></D:owner>

And then later on, when it did a PROPFIND to retrieve the lock's
details, it wasn't getting back what it had put in, like it's
supposed to. mod_dav_svn was sending back:

&lt;ns0:owner
xmlns:ns0=&quot;DAV:&quot;&gt;&lt;ns0:href&gt;markphip&lt;/
ns0:href&gt;&lt;/ns0:owner&gt;

In other words, mod_dav_svn was behaving as if a Subversion client
had created the lock, rather than a non-Subversion client.

Here's the dev@ thread describing the bug:

Thanks for finding this bug, Mark! The Dreamweaver HTTP trace was
critical.
