<h3>Summary</h3>

    <p>This module <em>requires</em> the service of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav.html">mod_dav</a></code>. It acts as a support module for <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav.html">mod_dav</a></code> and provides access to resources located in the
    server's file system. The formal name of this provider is
    <code>filesystem</code>. <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav.html">mod_dav</a></code> backend providers
    will be invoked by using the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_dav.html#dav">Dav</a></code>
    directive:</p>

    <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Dav filesystem</pre>
</div>

    <p>Since <code>filesystem</code> is the default provider for
    <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav.html">mod_dav</a></code>, you may simply use the value
    <code>On</code> instead.</p>

    <p>Use the <code class="directive">DavLockDB</code> directive to specify
    the full path to the lock database, excluding an extension. If
    the path is not absolute, it will be taken relative to <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code>. The implementation of
    <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav_fs.html">mod_dav_fs</a></code> uses a SDBM database to track user
    locks.</p>

    

    <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">DavLockDB "var/DavLock"</pre>
</div>

    <p>The directory containing the lock database file must be
    writable by the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_unixd.html#user">User</a></code>
    and <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_unixd.html#group">Group</a></code> under which
    Apache is running.  For security reasons, you should create a
    directory for this purpose rather than changing the permissions on
    an existing directory.  In the above example, Apache will create
    files in the <code>var/</code> directory under the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code> with the base filename
    <code>DavLock</code> and extension name chosen by the server.</p>

    <p><code class="directive">DavLockDiscovery</code> controls if the lock
    discovery feature is enabled for <code>PROPFIND</code> method.
    When disabled, <code>PROPFIND</code> always returns an empty
    <code>lockdiscovery</code> section. This improves performance
    if clients use <code>PROPFIND</code> a lot.</p>
