Update Windows solution and alternate connection address.

Open kuipumu opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Based on multiple error trying to connect to multiple Nextcloud 16 servers thought WebDav, the correct address to get access from File Explorer or CLI is \domain.comSSL\DavWWWRoot\remote.php\dav\files\username or if a subdomain is present (has in the current manual example) \domain.comSSL\DavWWWRoot\subdomain\remote.php\dav\files\username. Also add another solution to WebDav connection problems based on the "WebClient" service from Windows not beign started.

A part of the problem it's described in this next Nextcloud forum topic: https://help.nextcloud.com/t/webdav-problems-in-windows-7-8-10

Interesting. Is this working properly, meaning is the connection stable an fast? Currently in the forums, we rather recommend to use 3rd party software and it would be cool to have a native implementation that works well. And which windows versions are working with that solution (if it works for one environment, we can ask the community to help with other versions)?
