DropDav and DropBox export problem Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
I did submit a support ticket request about this, but I haven't really received an answer yet. I'm having export problems with OmniOutliner and DropDav/Dropbox. I'm not having this problem with other apps that use DropDav like Pages or Keynote, but I do see it with OmniGraffle as well.

Basically, I can't export any files to DropDav anymore. I get an error that the file name "" already exists, and if I try to replace the file I get a Bad URL error. The file name doesn't have any spaces or special characters, and I'm using the correct dropdav URL as far as I know.

I can import files just fine.

I think this started when I upgraded to ios 6, but I can't be 100% certain. I'm also using OmniOutliner 1.3.1.

Anyone else have this issue or have a way to solve it? Thanks!
 
Had the same problem.
Here's a solution:
Create a folder in dropbox eg omnioutlinerfiles and then use dav.dropdav.com/omnioutlinerfiles/as the webdav address (as well as your username and password).
Works perfectly now.
 
Thanks for the suggestion but that didn't work either.
 
Are you ending the URL with a '/' character or not? That used to matter, as I recall.
 
Also, if you are still having trouble with this months after our initial post, you need to be pestering Omni for an answer (which might include "our software is broken, and we are busy with other things at the moment"). Call them up during the week at 1-800-315-6664 and have them troubleshoot with you.
 
Regarding ending the URL with '/', yeah I've tried both. I've looked through forums and I can't find anything that solves it.

I've submitted bug requests to Omni, but they think it's a problem with DropDAV. I've tried working with DropDav, but their support is basically non-existent and they never get back to me. So, I'm stuck with OmniSync for now.
