Description Johannes Truschnigg 2009-12-01 17:23:20 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.3)
Compiler:          gcc (Gentoo 4.4.2 p1.0) 4.4.2
 -O2 -march=native (Intel COre 2 Quad Q6600)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

When using webdav to manage files on a remote HTTP/WebDAV resource (Apache, in my case), handling files over 2GB in size crashes the KIO slave - the transfer is shut down after 2GB of data are submitted, the server logs shows:
----snip----
[Tue Dec 01 16:39:42 2009] [error] [client 192.168.1.1] request failed: error reading the headers
----snip----

Neither uploading nor downloading works. It's possible to rename and list resources of more than 2GB in size. The very same server setup shows none of these problems when using a different Dav client (cadaver).
