#6586 closed enhancement (fixed)

Follow redirects on PUT

Reported by: A Alvarezayllon Owned by: dkocher
Priority: normal Milestone: 4.4.4
Component: webdav Version: 4.2.1
Severity: normal Keywords:

Description (last modified by dkocher)

From HTTP/1.1 RFC (2616):

The action required MAY be carried out by the user agent without interaction with the user if and only if the method used in the second request is GET or HEAD.

Which does not discard the option of following the redirect after the users agrees.

Since we give support to a DAV implementation that does redirects on PUT's, this would be a really nice-to-have feature.

Hi,

is this change already been in production? I am using the latest 4.4.2 (OS X Mavericks) setting the preference as you suggested, but it seems that it cannot follow the redirect in a PUT request. Is the 307 Temporary Redirect supported, via Location header?

thanks

Yes, this is supposed to be fixed with the hidden setting.

Using mitmproxy to look what happens at the client side, I see that redirection URI in the Location header is sent back from the server, but Cyberduck client doesn't try to follow it. Is there a way to enable HTTP debug logging on Cyberduck to see what happens? Setting ch.sudo.cyberduck logging to debug, doesn't write any HTTP traffic log to the console.

here the response from the server:

after this, cyberduck pop up a dialog with:

TEMPORARY REDIRECT.

Choosing continue doesn't sort any effect.

Please update to the latest ​snapshot build available and let me know if it makes a difference.

comment:11 Changed on Nov 28, 2013 at 3:04:18 PM by antonio calanducci

Unfortunately nothing changed. Still getting the "TEMPORARY REDIRECT." message in a pop up dialog. Inspecting the HTTP traffic on the client side, I see that the PUT request returns a 307 stutus with the proper Location header, but no other following PUT request to the returned URL. I am using Version 4.4.3 (14137), is this the latest snapshot or am I using the wrong version? I have also this set to my defaults: 

$ defaults read ch.sudo.cyberduck | grep webdav
    "webdav.redirect.PUT.follow" = true;

best Antonio

Thanks for the comment. We will need to add tests.

I have noticed that our WebDAV server doesn't not return the 100-continue status code to the cyberduck client, but receive all the body and return the 307 redirection. It this maybe the reason why cyberduck won't follow the redirect? Is the Expect 100 header involved in the handshake?

Yes, If your server does not implement expectation (see also #7642) correctly that could very well be the cause. Try to disable the expectation handshake with the property webdav.expect-continue. 

defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck webdav.expect-continue false

comment:15 Changed on Nov 28, 2013 at 4:32:22 PM by antonio calanducci

ok. I will try to implement the 100-continue response, but I tried your workaround. I see that cyberduck doesn't send anymore the Expect header, but it doesn't follow anyway the redirect :( Disabling expectation through properties, it is supposed to resend the body to the redirect url? Is there a way to enable a verbose http debug log on cyberduck to see if some error occurs?

Hi,

I have just downloaded the latest nightly builds (4.4.4 14382) and now setting the "webdav.redirect.PUT.follow" = true" hidden properties, PUT redirects are followed! Anyway, it still doesn't work properly cause the body is completely sent during the first PUT request, while it should be sent only to the redirect URL (it sends 0 byte to the redirect, it should be the way around). I have also noticed that the client doesn't send anymore the Expect:100-continue header by default (and even if I set the "webdav.expect-continue" = true, it doesn't send this header).
Just to be clearer, I expect the workflow of the request should be:

  • cyberduck send a PUT request to the server, but holding for sending the body data (raw data)
  • the server returns a 307 redirect URL to the client
  • the client follow the redirect URL sending the raw data to the redirect URL returned by the server

Am I wrong? Thank you

Why is this option not enabled by default?
