Question Re: Using WEBDAV in a Windows PowerShell script in Technology Q&A

Using WEBDAV in a Windows PowerShell script

Former Member — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 16:32:19 GMT

Hello,

I am trying to write a Windows PowerShell script to copy a file from my SharePoint site to a DB repository folder using a WEBDAV link. I am not getting it to work.

When I copy from SharePoint to SharePoint it works. I have used my credentials on the script which has the authorizations but it still isn't working. The response error is a 500 Internal Server error.

Any ideas?

Has anyone done this before?

Thanks,

Matt

Can you check the contents of the response body (that comes with the 500), or the server log?

This is not a solution but more an extra tool to help you find a solution....

You could download and install the Portal Drive to see what actions/commands are used to communicate via webdav to the KM repository.

Cheers,

Using Portal Drive to create a local drive (G:) I was able to use the copy command in my script.

Thanks,
