Ok. I'm now running 3.7.21. I'm still seeing the error `Last error: Error: PUT 193448bddb3c47718803aa31da07bcdf.md: Unknown error 2 (405): Method Not Allowed`.

I presume the 405 is being returned by my server, `rclone serve webdav`. I note that the configuration of joplin's webdav sync method allows only the `http` and `https` protocols, not `dav`. I don't know whether this is the cause of the error. PUT is a valid http method, and I thought webdav extended, rather than modified, http.

Does anyone know why `dav` is not allowed in the joplin config?

Here is a link to the issue I raised at `rclone`
