Bug Description
This happens in both Jaunty and Karmic. I do not recall, being new to Ubuntu, whether it ever worked, but I seem to remember being able to transfer all files without any problems.
From home, I connect to my workplace server using Secure WebDAV. After doing so, the drive is mounted and I can browse files. I can change any file's name on the server, and I can delete any file. I can upload files.
But if I try to download (drag and drop or copy and paste) any OpenOffice file format, the file is "not found." I can go to the file's properties and find its size and such, so it is not truly missing.
If I try to simply open the OO file, it is of "an unknown type"--despite the fact that a copy of the same file on my local filesystem opens with a simple doubleclick.
If I try to open, for instance, a DOC file, it works (and it is OO Writer which opens it). The same is true of PDF files.
Another recent WebDAV error occurred which may be related: when trying to copy a folder from the WebDAV to my desktop, a single file, which is an html list of the files in that folder, is created rather than an actual folder full of files.
I have done no alterations to the system, but I have installed updates regularly.

Thank you for your bug report. The issue is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug the to the people writting the software (https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/Bugs/ Upstream/ GNOME)
