[opencms-dev] WebDAV: 'Error in repository while executing method "PUT"' for Images

[Andrea Puddu]

Hi Ahmed,
I can reproduce the issue we came across a few months ago.

Moreover I thinks it's an OpenCms bug since as discussed previously it 
seems that the malformed encoding error is thrown by a method for 
propertied writing which tries to write... a binary file.

05 Jul 2010 13:06:27,342 ERROR [pencms.webdav.CmsWebdavServlet:2069] 
Error in repository while executing method "PUT" for path 
"/agencies/media/10/07/05/example.jpg"
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Malformed \uxxxx encoding.

You can find the whole story (and how to replicate the bug) here:

I'll really appreciate any contribution/suggestion if you have one.

Kind regards,
