putMethod

I am trying to write some files to my store programatically
utilizing the WebDavResource putMethod.  This all seems
straight forward, at least on the surface.  Perhaps someone
can explain to me why the following will succeed :
boolean success =
container.putMethod("/slide/files/myfile.txt",
"some text/n");

and the following will fail with a 403 forbidden error:

url = new HttpURL("http://local
host:8080/slide/files/");

url.setUserinfo("root", "root");

container = new WebdavResource(url);

if (container == null)

{

System.out.println("Container is null.");

}

File file = new File("c:/pdfs/myfile.txt");

if(file.exists())

{

System.out.println("File is valid.");

boolean success = container.putMethod(file);

if(success)

{

System.out.println("File was added
successfully.");

}

else

{

System.out.println("Failed to add file.");

}

I also tried this which failed as well.

boolean success = container.putMethod(/slide/files, file);

I have also tried using an inputstream with the same
results.  It would seem to me that these are the same.  A
file is created and written to /files.  I have tried this on
both the bundled tomcat version with user name root,
password root which should be the administrator and with a
setup in which authentication is disabled.  Both yeild the
same results.  What have I missed?  With authentication off
should I not be able to do whatever I want?  I am using the
2.1 version of Slide.

Hey,

try to use an absolute URL as parameter in the 'putMethod'
method

e.g.: 
webdavResource.putMethod("h
ttp://localhost:8080/slide/files/slide/files", 
file)

Matthias, thanks for the response.  I tried your suggestion
and got the same 
result.  Maybe a better question would be does it work at
all when passing 
in a file object or an inputstream?
