Description Alberto Mattea 2023-01-18 13:36:26 UTC

SUMMARY
See Bug 334192 for full context. Basically, when copyFromFile support was introduced with http://commits.kde.org/kio/3167510f887bb6b2ebc849a91bfebe1319ad1837, the corresponding entry ("copyFromFile": true) was not added to http.json, so the symptoms described in the above bug are still present (unnecessary copy to /tmp, problems with large files etc). Simply adding the entry to the "webdav" and "webdavs" sections of the json file fixes the problem.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Upload a large file to a WebDAV server with dolphin

OBSERVED RESULT
The file is copied to /tmp first, RAM usage spikes, the actual upload may not start due to memory problems

EXPECTED RESULT
The file gets uploaded right away
