Syncing Problems with webdav

Hello all!
I have my own webdav server running on an win8 Box (Visual SVN 2.7.2) that worked up until several weeks ago to sync my zotero PDFs between different machines.
Im not sure when the problems started, as I did not have to use the syncing for several weeks, however currently different zotero clients on different OSses refuse tzo Sync with the webdav server.
Ôn all these machines it is possible to log into the webdav server via the browser and view the repository (and open documents)
On Zotero when I check the webdav syncing it will just continue to check for an indefinite time or sometimes tell me that the credentials are faulty.
(Credentials are fine triple and quadruple checked)
when I look at the logging it shows this :
(3)(+0121683): Verifying storage

(3)(+0000000): Getting WebDAV password

(3)(+0000003): HTTP OPTIONS for http://schmunzel:********@www.schmunzel.org/svn/literatur/zotero/

    Oops — that's not good.

    Can you try the latest 4.0 Beta and confirm that it fixes it?
  • Never mind — fixed in 4.0.19, available now for Firefox. (The Standalone version will be released later today.) Thanks for reporting.

    ok. This lead s to me getting zotero to tell while syncing that the credentials are wrong. This is actually very funny, as zotero starts to download files and then stops the download while giving the error about wrong credentials ...

    "webdav verification failed check your file sync settings" (tranlated from german)

    thks for the timely responses :)

  • 409 Conflict is an error from your WebDAV server. That one you'll need to figure out on your own.
  • And it's not really telling you that your credentials are wrong — just that something went wrong.
