Description claudenw 2007-02-17 23:04:08 UTC 
A document in a secured WebDAV directory is read, modified and saved back; or a
new document is created and saved to the secured webDAV directory produces an
error window that reads:
"Error saving the document <document title>: The object can not be created in
directory http://server:80/directory/"

This functionality worked under 1.1.5

OO is configured to use OO dialog boxes.

Server is running Trustix 2.2 distro of linux.  uname -a returns:
Linux phoenix 2.4.28-4tr #1 Wed Nov 24 15:38:28 GMT 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

WebDAV service is provided by Apache 2.0.59.

The apache access log shows the following during the save of the document:

192.168.1.8 - - [17/Feb/2007:17:51:02 -0500] "OPTIONS /performers/ HTTP/1.1" 401 -

HTTP/1.1" 200 -

It appears that the DAV interface is not accepting the 207 (multi-status) status
code as valid.  The status code and its use is defined in RFC2518
(http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2518.txt)
