webdav interface broken

Hello,

 

I've installed the owncloud app from the list of available apps for my ReadyNAS 104 running the firmware 6.5.0.

I would like my server to keep my documents and automatically syncronize them on all my computers also when these are away from the network. I thought that a cloud solution would be the easiest way. 

 

However after installing the app in the admin page of the owncloud I obtain the error :

"Your web server is not yet properly setup to allow files synchronization because the WebDAV interface seems to be broken."

 

I searched online for guidelines about how to solve this but I failed. I hope somebody here will be able to help me (or suggest me a different solution to syncronize my files?).

 

Many thanks in advance!

    Hi marco_qwerty_88,

     

    Welcome to the community!

     

    Since no one has experienced this error when installing the said add-on, let's ask the developer himself WhoCares_ super_poussin for some input.

     

     

    Kind regards,

      If I recall correctly this messages stems from a faulty test for a working WebDAV connection in older versions of ownCloud. I believe I fixed it somehow back then but I totally forgot how since newer versions don't seem to have that problem - at least I don't apply any specific patch to my version of ownCloud 9.

        Hello,

         

        many thanks for these answers.

         

        So I should probably just Install owncloud 9 then. However this is not listed among the avalaible apps for installation in the netgear interface. I'm sure somewhere it is explained how to install the app anyway. As soon as I figure this out I'll give a try to owncloud 9 and I will let you know how it goes.

         

        Many thanks again for your help
