reassigned to framework. TM->BH: We don´t support HTTPS. So this is not a defect but might be a wish for an enhancement. Please have a look. If you decide NOT to implement HTTPS (but please do), then at last show an info box telling the user, that there is no support for https. The current situation is, that pressing "Open" shows a pressed button going down and released but nothing happens. You could then press the button over and over again, without any change. At least show a note. I'd like to confirm that this is really an interesting feature in order to use DAV safely : DAV without SSL is not really to advise, at least for real office use, so what's good with DAV support if you can't use it over SSL ? I'd also like to comment that this would be great if it could be changed to support https. As the previous comment states, saving documents over non secure webdav is quite a bad idea, since not only is the document passed unencrypted, but your login credentials as well. Enabling secure webdav access would be a way to compete more strongly with free online office suites like ThinkFree http://www.thinkfree.com/. Interestingly, a search for "free office" on google yields openoffice in the top spot, and thinkfree.com in the number 2 spot... Please vote for this! *** Issue 32935 has been confirmed by votes. *** We are a university and all of our web services are delivered via https. So what a surprise when we discovered that OOo 2.0.3 cannot open webdav/https document... Am I wrong or is this issue still true ? This issue is still valid with the latest stable release. I wonder why this important feature is not implemented yet. But anyway, I have couple of questions: - did I miss this feature in development releases? - anyone is working on https support for WebDAV? - if not, I would like to implement it, any comments, hints, ...? I'm taking over of this issue. Kai just answered my questions at o http://ucb.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=336 Starting work on it ... Robert, are you still working on it? Since I'm working at the same topic (Issue i31053) i will mark this issue as duplicate if you don't Hello tkr, I have ready patches, currently against OOF680-m18. I took over robert's work. I wanted to learn CWS, and use this fixes for my first CWS. The trouble is I am leaving for a 1,5 month long vacation probably on September 10th. Do you hurry with a fix for this issue? RVOJTA->TKR: No, I'm not working on this feature for a few weeks. I left the OpenOffice.org development because of lack of time. Feel free to do whatever you want with this issue. P.S. If you want to see my hack to have SSL working on Windows and Linux, let me know. This hack uses openssl binaries (Windows, Linux) or system openssl libraries (Linux). It works pretty well, but lot of missing features (certificates handling) and it needs to be polished. The target for this issue is OOo 2.4, so we can't wait until end of October. Feel free to send me your patches and hacks and I will try to fit them in my concept. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 31053 *** closed as duplicate |
