I am trying to mount a webdav server in /etc/fstab with davfs, but when i try open this in my file manager (Thunar) i will get the error:



Failed to mount "My Folder"

/sbin/mount.davfs: different URL in /etc/fstab


The entry in /etc/fstab looks like this:



http://<server_url>/my/path/Doe5440John/  /home/john/My40Folder       davfs   user,noauto     0       0


But i am still able to mount it successfully with:



sudo mount -t davfs http://<server-url>/my/path/Doe, John/ /home/john/My Folder


Any ideas what am i doing wrong in /etc/fstab?



Thanks for your help!

Too few information to give a hint on whats going wrong here but after installing davfs2 my fstab entry:



https://my-owncloud-url/remote.php/webdav  /media/owncloud/ davfs user,noauto,rw,_netdev 0 0


works very well...
just after changing the content of the fstab you can check if it is working by entering



sudo mount -a


or by entering



sudo mount mountpoint-here


but keep in mind - the fodler has to exist before mount can be initilaized...
