Error 400 - Illegal content length value in WEBDAV PUT 3

We have deployed an Enterprise Library system for the scenario SAP NetWeaver ILM WebDAV Storage Interface.

When trying to upload a new file to Enterprise Library using WebDAV PUTmethod we get the following error:

DAV Response: 400 Bad Request (PUT /ot-webdav/ilm/ILMAppDEV/ecd/100/ad/zrh_lopd5/20130924/000245/000245-001zrh_lopd5.adk)   Cause: Bad Request    com.opentext.ecm.services.entlib.ELServiceException: Illegal content length value!

Content-Length: 0

The folder is creted correctly but every PUT call fails with an HTTP 400 Bad Request ERROR stating that Content-Length is invalid.

We have checked and both the ILM-Verification tool from Opentext and the SAP system calls have Content_Length=-1 which I guess is correct and means that the WEBDAV server should read the file stream until the end. Is this not so?

Is there any configuration missing for WEBDAV modules or Tomcat?

We have an Enterprise Library Services 10.2.1 and Content Server 10.0.0.

Thanks,

It looks as if there is no Storage Provider rule, that fires for ILM documents, and that puts the files into Archive Server.

Please follow the instructions inhttps://knowledge.opentext.com/knowledge/piroot/el/v100202/el-ggd/en/html/sapilmcreatelogicalar.htm

Hello Andreas.

We had already defined both configuration varaibles ILM.ArchiveId and ILM.StorageProvider as global in our system.

We have not defined any storage provider rules. Should we do that also?

Regards,

eLink User

If you follow the approach with configuration variables, please add the following setting to the Enterprise Library configuration (MMC Admin/Runtime and Core Services/Configuration/Enterprise Library Services)

elservice.enableSimpleObjectOptimization=true

Hello Andreas.

We created a storege provider Rule for ILM before seeing your reply and now archiving works fine.

We will try the configuration variable approach with the variable you suggest since it seems to be faster but we have to wait a few days because users are doing functional testing right now.

We will keep you posted.

Regards and Thank you.
