I had a quick glance at the Apache2 config on this server: grep -i dav /etc/apache2/apache2.conf # redirects for folders with DAV methods. BrowserMatch "^WebDAVFS/1.[012]" redirect-carefully

Google showed me some bugs occurring on other software where they said the problems were happening because the redirect weren't handled correctly. I haven't got a clue about this, but thought mentioning it might ring someone's bell :)

With friendly regards, Takis
