I based on your post to make a script to let cadaver connect to dropdav.com on openwrt. I had to use empty instead of expect but I found your script useful. Thank you.

Are you timing out from cadaver or expect?

I've got a webDav repository with a folder with a HUGE (11K) number of subfolders. Whenever I'm trying to get into that folder through cadaver, I eventually get a timeout....I'm not seeing any options in cadaver to set a timeout...? any help is much appreciated!

long: the expect timeout is coming in and aborts the upload..

for simply putting a file online you could also
edit the ~/.netrc (see: cadaver manual) file for
automatic login without password and user prompt
and then do the following in a script:

cadaver “https://somewebdav.place” << EOF
put /tmp/${FILENAME}
exit
EOF

I understand now: spawn is available only through expect, when you run the script. Many thanks for the above example. Ok, works fine.

I tried to launch cadaver as well. spawn is not in /bin or /usr/bin indeed, but I don’t see it anywhere on the list of Cygwin downloadable packages.
