Findings and Modifications DB schema and webDAV

[leigh-pointer]

I'm using a hosting provider (Interserver.net) and hit some issues. The first was when I set up the database the user I created in the web control panel (plesk) created the user and also created a schema of the same name. I was not added to the [dbo] schema. the result was when I run the install of the database through the Oqtane install page I received a message

Cant find [dbo].[SchemaVersion] looking at the database I was that [myschema].[SchemaVersion] had been created.

Talking to support fixed this and my DB login was added to [dbo] schema.

The next point was that the site built and every seemed to appear fine. On further usage I was not able to update or delete any thing. It appeared that the verbs POST, DELETE PUT where not allowed.

Furtherer investigation it appeared that WebDAV was enabled. Now I hit the issue to disabling webDAV through the plesk control panel. Currently there is no option for this ! https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213395689-How-to-disable-or-remove-File-Sharing-tab-WebDAV-in-Plesk-

There is a work around, but this is not so easy to implement.

My solutions was to update the web.config with .....

<system.webServer>

  <modules>
  	<remove name="WebDAVModule" />
  </modules>

  <handlers>

  	<remove name="WebDAV" />

    <add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModuleV2" resourceType="Unspecified" />
  </handlers>
  <aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments=".\Oqtane.Server.dll" stdoutLogEnabled="false" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" hostingModel="inprocess" />
</system.webServer>

so my question is here. As webDAV is required to be off could / should we add this modification to the web.config ?
