I'm trying to setup webdav on lighttpd but I'm getting a lighttpd.conf: parser failed somewhere near here at end-of-file. The webdav config is at the end of the file: here it is-

$HTTP["host"] == "www.markmhart.com" {
  server.document-root = "/var/www/servers/www.markmhart.com/pages/" 
  $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/download/" {
    dir-listing.activate = "enable" 
  }
alias.url = ("/media" => "/media/mark/media")
    $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/media($|/)" {
        webdav.activate = "enable"
        webdav.is-readonly = "disable"
        webdav.sqlite-db-name = "/var/run/lighttpd/lighttpd.webdav_lock.db"
        auth.backend = "htpasswd"
        auth.backend.htpasswd.userfile = "/var/www/servers/www.markmhart.com/passwd.dav"
        auth.require = ( "" => ( "method" => "basic",
            "realm" => "webdav",
            "require" => "valid-user" ))
 
}

Thanks in advance for your help.

When you indent your config file properly you'll notice that you are missing a closing curly brace:

$HTTP["host"] == "www.markmhart.com" {
  server.document-root = "/var/www/servers/www.markmhart.com/pages/" 
  $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/download/" {
    dir-listing.activate = "enable" 
  }
  alias.url = ("/media" => "/media/mark/media")
  $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/media($|/)" {
    webdav.activate = "enable"
    webdav.is-readonly = "disable"
    webdav.sqlite-db-name = "/var/run/lighttpd/lighttpd.webdav_lock.db"
    auth.backend = "htpasswd"
    auth.backend.htpasswd.userfile = "/var/www/servers/www.markmhart.com/passwd.dav"
    auth.require = ( "" => ( "method" => "basic",
        "realm" => "webdav",
        "require" => "valid-user" ))
  }

Just add it at the end:

  • OK that fixed the problem. However, when I do a cadaver I get a Cannot open collection - 404 not found. The path and files are good. They are chown to nobody:nogroup and are set to 755. First I changed the realm to media fromwebdav and tried with no luck, then I took out all the security stuff and tried with no luck. Any ideas? – user3670606 Jul 20 '20 at 22:09
