Yes and no. (no, in that this is not a feature that is coded into the script, and YES, in there are definitely easy ways to set this up). If I were to set up multiple user accounts I would do this by way of subdirectories, e.g. /public_html/zotero…

Hi. Just to weigh in on this conversation. One way that could be explored is to use my own phpZoteroWebDAV script as a VERY straightforward way to set up your own attachment sync server. This would enable you to ensure that sensitive attachments nev…

just to add that I have put the code on github as well: https://github.com/krueschan/phpZoteroWebDAV

@gadietrich and others I have just released version 2.0 of my phpZoteroWebDAV script which now includes a library and attachment view of all synced library items.
-
Let me just weigh into this discussion. I have just released version 2.0 of my phpZoteroWebDAV program which enables users to use their own (or, indeed any) php enabled webserver as a zotero sync target for attachments. Version 2.0 also introduces …

@Dan. Just for clarification: will zotero cease to encode the filenames in the zip file once Firefox's limitations will not require it to do that anymore or will you just leave this as is since this sort of under-the-hood stuff doesn't really make a…
-
thanks, Dan. I cannot believe I never noticed this before (or more likely: totally forgot that I ever noticed). But then again, it's probably been a while since I opened a zip file on my Zotero WebDAV sync server. @gadietrich: I have adjusted my wo…

@adamsmith: I swear I looked there before and didn't find it... of course, you are right. thanks. it's now moved.
-
@Dan: can you elaborate on the encoding of filenames in zip files and/or point my to the relevant thread? I nearly just took this revival of this old thread as a motivation to write a quick wee script where users could enter their itemkey in a form …
-
@gadietrich: you are experiencing totally normal and expected behaviour. I have also been planning for quite some time to write another program as a companion script for the phpZoteroWebDAV which would display the contents of the library on the same…

Hi, Since my original question I have started to learn how to manipulate/write CSL and have thus been able to find a workable solution. I am using the person field "contributor" (which I am not otherwise using) as a "short author" field. I am then…

Hi, @black coffee: This is odd and must have something to do with your hosting service and/or your .htaccess file. Authentication is not handled by my script so it is really your own responsibility to secure your storage according to your needs. (o…
-
...alright. I now have also done a script that checks for individual files. In order to use that, please follow steps 1 and 2 from above instructions, and for step 3 use the code from the bottom of this post here (or download the batch file). T…

Hey, Following up on this thread and offering a relatively straightforward work around, below is a relatively easy way to find the storage directories that should be there but (ie there are records for it in the zotero database), for some reason, a…

thanks for the reply. I guess that mean manual editing of references, then. thanks again.

Hi, The implementation of locking in the webdav server in php was too complicated and not worth it as zotero doesn't require locking to work. My goal was to keep the script as straightforward as possible to keep maintenance low. This is not meant t…
-
That is right. This presents yet another problem, particularly, if those multiple publishers are from different places. (at least one of such books is in the pile right next to me) This does, as you rightly point out, only occur very occasionally, …
-
I don't like that I have to enter multiple places like this. Different citation styles require different delimiters for multiple places and this 'method' requires manual changes if the delimiter used for entry is different from the one required by t…
-
P.S. Judging from some forum comments, user who use the word plugin, might have problems running their "zotero" instance with the no-remote command line switch. I have never run into this problem, but only since I am doing my writing on a different …

[summary: explains how to make a standalone zotero installation] Hi all, I also see at least one major advantage of having zotero as a 'stand alone' app, mainly for one particular reason: I am using my browser quite heavily including pages with a …
-
In my case, I found the reason for the sync error (at least in one instance; I haven't had time yet to check the others). Turns out that the zip file created during the upload is corrupt on the WebDAV server. Not surprising then, that the sync faile…
-
Hey Dan, Any news on this? The click-through to attachments stored as PDF on the WebDAV server from the zotero library would make everything so much easier... Thanks
-
I agree that it would be a great feature to have this built into zotero. I have problems with missing attachments (failed sync, currently not reproducable) as well and I found that in all these cases the entire storage directory for that attachmen…

Hi, sorry for not having posted to this thread for a while - my two babies (PhD and ..., well, my 'real' baby) needed a lot of attention lately. Here some answers: S3: I don't know if it is possible to connect to S3 with php (I guess it should be)…
-
slowturn, a good easy and quick solution for your own WebDAV server is the phpzoteroWebDAV server package, that I have put together. This can be easily secured by .htaccess authentication and all you need is a webserver that speaks php. Restriction…
-
Hi, I have changed the zip package again, to take into include any fixed bugs that have been found by users. Thanks for sharing those error messages. Christian
-
Hey Jollywollup, Yes. That makes sense. Again a case of my server setup being too robust to trigger this sort of issue. Bear with me a day or two until I have that fixed - I will do a bit more thorough testing this time (in fact - if you tell me wha…

Hi jollywollup, Thanks for posting this error. There was indeed a tiny coding error - the first line should read "
-
dbogdanov, you should first make sure that your installation of the script works properly. To test, enter the URL of the script in your browser address bar, e.g. www.example.com/zotero/webdav_server.php If that doesn't throw any errors, the script i…

Just to announce that after my server crash last week the phpZoteroWebDAV server is back and can be downloaded from the link in the first post of this thread.
