WebDAV bookmark syncing - broken?

[mk2]

I just discovered yesterday that my recent bookmarks were not keeping up with me on the (3) different machines I run OmniWeb on. I am using WebDAV syncing with mod_dav running under Apache on my personal linux server.

I did some poking around and it seems that none of the 5.5SP have made any requests to the WebDAV directory on the server. I turned off bookmark syncing in OW prefs, and re-enabled it. Tabbing out of the server-address input field, I get an error "Not a WebDAV server." However, from running 'tail -f' on the webdav server's access.log and error.log, it appears OW isn't even trying to contact the server!

Some details about the WebDAV url just in case it helps:
it looks like this:
https://my.server.edu/mk2

I disabled non-SSL webdav once Mac OS X 10.3 came out with HTTPS WDAV support. Only the /mk2 directory has WebDAV enabled (e.g. https://my.server.edu/ is just plain http/ssl)

I am still able to mount the WebDAV directory using Finder, and browsing to it in OmniWeb generates the same directory listing it used to (once i type in the username and password).

Any thoughts, OG folks? Is this a known issue that didn't make it into the sneaky peek release notes?

Thanks,
Mike

I see SP13 has removed WebDAV syncing from the preferences. Is this permanent?

It's still there for me.

D'oh! Forgive that bit of crackheadedness...

I did some more poking and found that it worked if I used a non-SSL WebDAV URL (Bah..had to reconfigure Apache :rolleyes:).

So, it would just seem that https:// WebDAV syncing is not working, and still with no activity in the Apache 1.3 + mod_dav server's access_log or error_log, and a "not a WebDAV server" error message from OmniWeb.

I believe the problem is that we no longer include our HTTPS bundle but since the only thing that would use it is bookmarks, we hadn't realized it was a problem...

We either need to switch to using Apple's networking for bookmarks, or put back the HTTPS bundle, I guess...

It's been many months, now, have you decided which method you will be choosing for returning the functionality and any possible word on when it might be returned?
