Problem with Webdav SSL under Windows8

hr61369256

Hi folks,

I like to add a network drive through webdav. The Alfresco site comes over ssl and my client os is windows 8. (btw, success, I had with windows XP). But I need now the network drive adding for windows 8. I did what I found about the "BasicAuthLevel" (set value to 2) in the registry … but it din't help. Yes, I checked the service "WebClient" as well … it was started. Yes, I have rebooted my laptop with windows 8 … but no change.

Please let me know, if you have any idea to fix this.

Thanks a lot,
Ralf

I tried out the following approaches and got it running at least …

1st try out: do the "BasicAuthLevel" thing with regedit … (see my first post)

2nd try out:

(see <a href="http://answers.microsoft.com/de-de/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/webdav-verbindung-nach-benutzeranmeldung-der/aa46cc6a-e1ac-4820-ac51-6a4a1d07a1c7" target="_blank">Link</a>)

"Cause of the problem is that Vista and W7 is not giving a warning for “Self-signed root certificates” and just gives an error like “that there is a problem with the folder …”

The web folder server, I used to test this, is using https and digest for authentication. I don’t think Vista and W7 will work with lower security.

To get it working, just add the Root Certificate of the server into Windows, as follows:

1) You should first get the server certificate on your computer. I got the certificate directly from the server administrator in CER format. It is also possible to download it with for example Firefox. I guess instructions could be found on the net.

2) Import it in Windows: start Certmanager: in “cmd” type certmgr.msc

3) Select on the left “Trusted Root Certification Authorities”

4) In the menu “Actions” -> “All Tasks” select “Import” and then “Next”

5) Browse for the location of certificate file you saved earlier on your computer and click “Open”.

6) You will get a few more warning messages. Just say to go through with it until the certificate is accepted."

3rd try out:
Install the windows update KB907306 for web folders (look for zip file Webfldrs-KB907306-ENU.zip)

My WebDAV seems to work fine.. Locally..
I've installed Alfresco with an Certified Certificate.
I can access my Alfresco Share site trough SSL and all works fine.
But when I try to make a WebDAV connection trough SSL I can't get it working either.
It keeps asking me for a certificate.

I've already tried the following options:
- The REGISTRY authentication change
- Webclient etc..
- Import the valid certificate from Internet Explorer

but I still can't access my Alfresco through 443.

I got it working. It was my own fault.
I made the SSL certificates working under the /Virtualhost-config under Apache for access trough JKProxy.
For WebDAV you also need the certificate config for the Apache-server itself to access via WebDAV and Apache.

I got it working now!

Found a simple instruction on this website:

Works for me!
