Doesn’t work. Stop trying. Give up. Sure it works in XP. And the web will lead you on a lot of wild goose chases but basically, the problem is windows vista (and windows 7) don’t really support webdav. They say they do, but it is buggy, and there are a million things that break it. I tried every documented "solution" on the web – nothing works. (I can not access it either in webdav – I’m using Win7 64bit version.)
If you want to connect to a webdav server (such as Confluence wiki) so you can drag and drop files, do this:
The Solution:
1) Download and install: http://www.independentsoft.com/independentdav/index.html
2) Once you have it installed (note you may need .net but it comes with vista)
Open it and past the url into the main bar: http://serverdomain.com/wiki/plugins/servlet/webdav (for confluence – use what ever your path is)
3) enter user name and password from wiki (leave domain blank)
Viola – enjoy dragging and dropping files into confluence.
Argh. ARGH. *ARGH!*
Hi
How do you set up WebDAV with confluence? I have installed the plugin in the admin plugin repository but how do you use WebDAV in Confluence as you would in a Sharepoint site.
For example setting up an area within confluence for just HR another area for sales etc
The path /plugins/servlet/webdav does not exist on my install or a folder called webdav? I am using Confluence 3.0.2
any ideas?

Have you tried this?
Install the Microsoft HotFix – Software Update for Web Folders (KB907306)

Worked for me along with an up-to-date version of Confluence.
This fix was issued in 2007 ! It should have been included in Windows since then !
This fix is not for Win 7
Have you applied it to Windows 7 64 bit ?
Does it solve the problem ? with Confluence webdav ?
