Re: [Bug 1186702] Re: WebDAV: LibreOffice does not handle vnd.sun.star.webdav protocol out-of-the-box
Hi,
I have retested today on Ubuntu Gnome 15.04 with LO 4.4.2.2 and it's still
not working.
I had a quick look at the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications that
comes with LO and I saw that x-scheme-handler/vnd.sun.star.webdav does not
appear in the MimeType section.

Title:
WebDAV: LibreOffice does not handle vnd.sun.star.webdav protocol out-
of-the-box
Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
New
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Libreoffice is able to open documents located on a WebDAV server if provided with an URL starting with the vnd.sun.star.webdav protocol.
(for instance: vnd.sun.star.webdav://example.com/webdav/my-document.odt )
Unfortunately, after installing Libreoffice on Ubuntu these URL aren't still handled correctly.
Whether you click on a link in your browser or you try to open the URL from the command line with xdg-open vnd.sun.star.webdav://... you get a message saying that this protocol is unknown.
What I expected was that LibreOffice would start and would open the
document.
A workaround is to create a Desktop file with the following informations:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=WebDav LibreOffice
Exec=/usr/bin/libreoffice %u
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Categories=System;
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/vnd.sun.star.webdav;
and then to copy it in /usr/share/applications
Afterwards you have to run sudo update-desktop-database so that Ubuntu will take the new protocol into account.
A more definitive solution would be to modify the libreoffice-base
Desktop file that comes with libreoffice (also located in
/usr/share/applications) to add the MimeType properties described
above.
