SCCM 2007 R2 on Windows Server 2008 R2

[Peter van der Woude]

That's why you can install WebDAV as a part of your IIS installation in Windows Server 2008 R2 (by adding Roles and Features)

I thought I should share my experience with WebDav.

Just recently installed Server 2008 R2.. I couldnt make SCCM work well with webdav. Also discovered that WebDav_schema.xml is not updating even though you have changed it in MMC IIS console.

 

To fix this..

navigate to %windir%\System32\inetsrv\config\schema

take ownership of webdav_schema.xml

remove the readonly attributes

edit them to these:

<attribute name="allowAnonymousPropfind" type="bool" defaultValue="true" />

<attribute name="allowInfinitePropfindDepth" type="bool" defaultValue="true" />

<attribute name="allowCustomProperties" type="bool" defaultValue="false" />

 

save it and continue with sccm.

 

it worked for me.
