Problem description:
Error when opening a file from Nautilus with LibreOffice when the file is WebDAV mounted with GVFS.
The Same file can be opened from the same location from within LibreOffice, with the Open File Dialogue. Then you get asked for the Username and Password and Libreoffice seems to access the file directly over HTTP.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Mount a DAV Folder with Nautilus.
URL in my Case: dav://admin@10.1.10.58:8080/alfresco/webdav/Sites/puzzletest/documentLibrary/Alfresco%20WebDAV%20Test/
2. Open a file with LibreOffice by doubleclick or context menu from Nautilus.
4. Error occurs.
Exact message:
(-) «General input/output error while accessing /home/pgassmann/.gvfs/WebDAV\ als\ admin\ auf\ 10.1.10.58%3A8080/Sites/puzzletest/documentLibrary/Alfresco\ WebDAV\ Test/Neu.odt.» [OK]
Working Variant:
1. = 1. above
2. Start LibreOffice
3. Open File dialogue from LibreOffice
4. Select the same file and click Open.
5. LibreOffice Dialogue: "Authentication Required", Enter user name and password for: "Alfresco DAV Server" on 10.1.10.58
6. Enter Username and password, click OK
7. File opens correctly
