Nginx + SabreDAV: Error 405 when accessing location via WebDAV, SabreDAV web interface works without

Server NGINX
1

Dear nginx team,

I’m trying to set up a WebDAV server using SabreDAV.

I successfully set up the server with Apache and now I want to achieve
the
same result with nginx.

Currently, the SabreDAV web GUI works without problems, but access via a
WebDAV client is not possible (I’m using CarotDAV).

Always the error 405 is returned.

I now post my configuration and the debug trace of a request. As no
fastcgi
messages appear, it looks to me as if the problem is caused by nginx,
not a
misconfigured php-fpm interpreter.

server {

                           listen

80;

                           location / {

                                           try_files $uri $uri/

/index.php;

                           }



                           location /TENANT_ID/webdav/ {

                                           try_files $uri $uri/

/TENANT_ID/webdav/index.php?$1;

                           }



                           location ~* (index|fileViewer)\.php$ {

                                           include fastcgi_params;

Hi there,

I’m trying to set up a WebDAV server using SabreDAV.

I don’t see an obvious sample configuration for this for nginx,
but the sabredav docs do give a sample configuration for apache at
Webservers - sabre/dav, which seems to indicate that all
requests should be handled by sabredav; so whatever web server is used
is really just there to let sabredav do its work.

That is not what the configuration you show here does; so I suspect
there
may need to be some more discussion about what exactly you want nginx
to do.

I would expect that for nginx, if every request that starts with “/s/”
should be passed to the fastcgi server to be processed by the file
/opt/sabredav/server.php, then all the configuration you need is

server {
location ^~ /s/ {
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /opt/sabredav/server.php;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
}
}

That will let requests that do not start with /s/ be served from the
filesystem at /usr/local/nginx/html, or whatever your configured root
is.

                           location /TENANT_ID/webdav/ {

                                           try_files $uri $uri/

/TENANT_ID/webdav/index.php?$1;

$1 there probably does not have what you want.

And the try_files there will probably be what leads to the 405 that you
see…

2015/03/13 12:06:44 [debug] 111#0: *513 http request line: “PROPFIND
/TENANT_ID/webdav/ HTTP/1.0”

…because the request is for /TENANT_ID/webdav/, which refers to a
directory that exists, and the nginx serve-from-the-filesystem handler
does not “do” PROPFIND.
