Error "412 Precondition Failed" with lighthttp WebDAV server

Support

Hello again:

Sorry for not answering before!

My webdav server is working ok: al files and folders are chomd 777, so full permissions.

I can upload and download files so I think everything is working ok...

I got tired of trying so I made a backup of joplin's notebooks and notes and then I uninstalled Joplin and move away alll the config options. I deleted all files in my webdav server. Finally I installed again Joplin but when trying to connect to my empty webdav I still receiving errors:

Error: PUT locks/exclusive_desktop_5565f62226484772ace2cc1ca25c7b5f.json: Unknown error 2 (412): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>412 Precondition Failed</title> </head> <body> <h1>412 Precondition Failed</h1> </body> </html>

What to do?

By the way... The answer is Yes to both questions!

412 Precondition Failed

What WebDAV server is it? It seems a particular server is throwing this random error.

Hi there: I use a raspberry pi with dietpi... using lighhttp server 1.4.59...

I have two more webdav folders (different servers) and they are working ok... The only one failing is this with joplin...

You might want to ask on a lighthttp support forum as they might no more about this, as it seems to be a quirk of this particular server. If we had more info perhaps we can add a lighthttp hack like we did for nginx.

A "Precondition Failed" error in itself doesn't tell us anything if we don't know what precondition the server is expecting.
