[Owncloud] ownCloud on directadmin (or in case that webdav already active)

[info at servweb.eu]

Hi,

I'm coming to you to report a recurant problem. I've seen many reports of it but no clear answer.

It's related to "owncloud on a directadmin server" or "owncloud on ovh hosting" or "onwcloud on mutu hosting" and before v4, we get error 500 on ownCloud v3

Symptom : After installing the sync client, when creating sync profile, a step is dedicated to configure a directory on the owncloud server to sync. The client provide a button to create the directory. After creation, it says everythings goes fine but finaly re-ask for creating the directory. In the server log, a line with "client denied by server configuration:" appears.

After research, I think the main possibility is that another webdav server already runs on the server. I see apache modules like dav_module, dav_fs_module, dav_lock_module (compiled as static in directadmin).

In httpd.conf I find this lines, accrediting the idea that webdav is already active before ownCloud :
# Distributed authoring and versioning (WebDAV)
Include conf/extra/httpd-dav.conf

After commenting the include line, and restarting apache, this works not better.

Question : Is there a way for bypassing webdav apache configuration to use ownCloud in a VHost ?

Have you some more ideas for me ?

Regards,

Gwenaël MOREAU
