Hi all,
We're finding continuous exceptions in our event viewer on our live box to the following exception:
[snippet]
Process information:
Process ID: 3916
Process name: w3wp.exe
Account name: NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE
Exception information:
Exception type: HttpException
Exception message: Path 'PROPFIND' is forbidden.
Thread information:
Thread ID: 14
Thread account name: OURDOMAIN\Account
Is impersonating: True
Stack trace:
at System.Web.HttpMethodNotAllowedHandler.ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
at System.Web.HttpApplication.CallHandlerExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute()
at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously)
Other Specs: Windows Server 2003 R2 & IIS 6.0
We've narrowed it down to occuring when people try to access shares on the box from within the network, and have discovered (we think) that its due to the WebDAV web services extension being previously disabled by past staff. The exceptions are being thrown when trying to access directories that are virtual dirs in IIS, and plain old UNC network shares
What the implications for enabling the WebDAV extensions on our live web server?
And will this solve our problems with the exceptions in our event log?
