Issues with a file if it's saved from application

rusaym opened this issue · comments

Describe the bug
If a file was created from the application, than you can't delete it. Tested on MS Word 2016.

www_screencapture_com_2022-11-2_06_18.mp4

Environment:

WsgiDAV/4.0.1 Python/3.10.6(64 bit) Linux-5.15.0-52-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.35

After waiting some time you can delete the file

Do you have any suggestion to fix this bugs at least temporary?

  1. I noticed that deletion issues occur with office documents, I can guess it's because of integration with office document formats. Can I somehow disable all office integrations?
  2. Refreshing issue occur also with webdav client library ( I tried https://www.npmjs.com/package/webdav), when I create file or folder I have to refresh destination folder from file explorer to see created file/folder. Maybe there is any way to manually refresh destination folder from Provider implementation?

Thanks.

I don't have access to MS Office most of the time, but I am not yet convinced that we have a bug.
Can you please provide a log file of the request sequence during the issue?
(Note that WebDAV does not support any API to actively push changes to clients, so if MS Word saves a file, that you opened from MS File Explorer, it is up to the Explorer to refresh the view.)
