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.

ermmm.... this is a bit embarrassing... but could someone who previously downloaded the phpZoteroWebDAV server please email me the zip file with the phpZoteroWebDAV package, as previously made available by me on my webserver? I had a server crash la…

Great. Just let me be boring for a second and provide a word of caution. If you use this little script with your web hosting package, refer to the TORs of your package. For a while, I was (albeit unsuccessfully) searching for a web hoster that did n…

Thanks for sharing this link. Setting up WebDAV on google apps would be rather sweet. However, I find the website you linked to lacks any documentation. Do you have some more hints how to set this up or websites with instructions? Thanks.

Alright Johannes, let's have another try. My guess is now that when you run the script, the working directory is not the directory where the script is based but some other directory (the document root, the directory where the php binaries are locat…

zotero requires a WebDAV server for its storage sync function. From a quick look at the mesh website it does not seems as if you can connect to this service via the WebDAV protocal; rather it seems to require a proprietary client software. So, unles…

Hi maicart, zotero requires a WebDAV server for the storage sync - a feature that idrive.com does not seem to offer and adrive.com only includes in its paid package. For a way to use zotero with (free) php enabled webhosting packages, see this pos…

amacom73, regarding "zipping the files in the first place seems like an odd choice": you will have to keep in mind that a) pdf files vary hugely in size - I have pdfs from tens of KB to hundreds of MB b) attachment type is not limited to pdf; e.g. I…

Hi Johannes, Sorry for not replying earlier - lots to do; I am sure you know how that feels. Your error messages suggest that the line in the script that sets the include path has not been executed. The command used only works for PHP versions 4.3…

seconded!

As for attaching pdf files to zotero entries: the "Add" button on the "Attachments" tab offers you the option to a) Link to file b) Store copy of file + c) + d) if you use b) zotero behaves as it would when getting the 'snapshot' directly from a w…

Based on Dan's information, I changed the code of the php WebDAV server that I mentioned before, mainly removing the implementation of the lock/unlock operations and it thus does not require a database anymore. Also, I updated the pretty old PEAR ve…

Thanks for that information, Dan. The WebDAV server mentioned is actually a very simple and straightforward implementation of the WebDAV module of the PEAR extensions for PHP which by default (it seems) require a database for unlock/lock operations,…

Also, for WebDAV, consider using a php based WebDAV server. I am using this and it works great. This way, you can use any webhosting company that offers php - and there are many free webhosters "out there" who give you 10, 20 or more GB for free. …

You can add word documents (or in fact any file, incl NVivo, xls, SPSS or what have you) directly to any zotero library entry. I think this is a more straightforward and generic solution than your way.

Another suggestion for millikel: the often described MobileFirefox-on-a-thumbdrive solution also works on any other 'drive'. For example, in my institution, students (and staff) have an H: (home) drive that is basically a network drive that they can…

If you only need to access the zotero database for reading, you could install a php management tool for SQLite databases (such as SQLiteManager - http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitemanager/) and copy the zotero database to your webserver (it seem…
