AEM tutorial webdav rights issue

Hi.

Busy working through the this AEM 6.1 tutorial (https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/develop/the-basics/website.html).

Got the webdav windows 7 client working and I can access *some* folders however, not the /etc/designs/mywebsite required by by the tutorial.

The moment I try to expand the /etc folder I get an access denied error.

Kinda stuck now, heeeeeelp!

Tx.

Yes, it does seem so: https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/administer/content/webdav-access.html 

Windows 7

For Windows 7: Basic authentication for WebDav is disabled by default. To enable it, the following entry in the registry has to be updated to 2 or greater in the web client:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters\BasicAuthLevel

Possible values: 2 or greater - Basic authentication for SSL shares and non-SSL shares.

You need to reboot after changing the registry. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841215/en-us for more information.

In addition, you need to have a Windows user with the same credentials as the repository user, otherwise you will get permission problems.

Seems to be related to Windows 7. I accessed the webdav server from Linux and it was working 100%.

Hi,

what user are you trying to log in as? Does the user have access to the folder? Check the permissions using CRXDE Lite.
