Title: davfs2 for piCore 13
Post by: sm8ps on May 26, 2021, 11:53:16 AM
piCore version 13.0.3
Linux box 5.10.16-piCore #1 Wed Feb 17 04:05:50 UTC 2021 armv6l GNU/Linux
https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/davfs2

I have tried to install compiletc.tcz but it does not find pc.tcz and I could not open a new thread about it because of a server error. Hopefully this try does go through!

Hi sm8ps
Thank you for reporting this. It's a typo in the  gcc.tcz.dep  file. It should have said  mpc.tcz.  I'll go fix it.

Hi bmarkus
Only armv6 was affected by this. The  gcc.tcz.dep  file has been updated. So have the  .tree  files.

Thanks for correcting the typo. I guessed it could be that but don't not have enough experience with compiling. tools.

I have been trying to reply but always hit a server error. It is almost impossible to communicate.

davfs2 posted - note that it was compiled on piCore-12.x and that I do not have access to a webdav share to test

Thanks, juanito for your support! After some fiddling, the extension does work well on piCore-13.0.3.

Three things need to be done and could be added to it in order to make it work according to its standard configuration file:

After that, WebDAV-shares can be mounted. It seems that it does not recognize personalized secrets-files under /root/.davfs2 or ~tc/.davfs2. The only way I could get it to respect a secrets file was over-writing the system-wide /usr/local/etc/davfs2/secrets (which has to be included in .filetool.st.

Ctrl-A + Ctrl-C + Post (:

I double-checked the info file and it looks good. Thanks a lot for your efforts!

If you use “mount -t davfs2 …” do you still need to create the davfs2 user/group?

Yes, indeed! The mounting fails if the user or group does not exist. So the info file should read "user/group dsvfs2 need to exist" but I think one will figure that out. Otherwise the user and group could be created by some installation script.
