Description of problem: enter davfs details in /etc/fstab and ~/.davfs2/secrets mount the share as user see it complaining: $ mount ~/empty/ cp: cannot stat `/usr/share/davfs2/davfs2.conf': No such file or directory $ I would have expected no complaints. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
I confirm the behavior. The warning occurs also when mounting from nautilus. The davfs2.conf in Fedora is not located in /usr but in /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf
+1, I was just about to file the same bug.
Hi, I confirm the behaviour for davfs2 1.4.6-1.fc16. The cause for the behaviour seems to be that mount.davfs tries to create davfs2.conf and secrets (with permission 600) in ~/.davfs2, if they do not exist (as described in the man mount.davfs). This seems to be done by copying the missing files there, i.e. /usr/share/davfs2/davfs2.conf and /usr/share/davfs2/secrets. A work-around for this bug is to create the files in question manually, i.e. touch ~/.davfs2/davfs2.conf and ~/.davfs2/secrets and set permission 600. Regards, Johann

This is probably a simple packaging error - I wasn't including the files in /usr/share/davfs2. I should have updated packages available for testing soon.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Seems to be still an issue: $ rpm -ql davfs2 | grep conf /etc/davfs2/davfs2.conf /usr/share/man/de/man5/davfs2.conf.5.gz /usr/share/man/es/man5/davfs2.conf.5.gz /usr/share/man/man5/davfs2.conf.5.gz

Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
