Wedav -The socket has been shut down

Hi @marceloduplicati,

History says it wouldn’t be that important. Google found two forum uses suggested – none done. Issues got one use in 2014 for kenkendk that was seemingly useful. I see option left in PR 5540.

In my view, there’s a general lack of protocol troubleshooting tools, and I don’t think .NET has a Network Tracing in the .NET Framework replacement (last I looked). That was sometimes good, although far from ideal, even ignoring the difficulty of trying protocol-level interoperability debug.

There might be some ways to get ETW to help, but I haven’t dug into that much. Packet tracing typically can’t help much because the connection is encrypted, but internal views can avoid that.

In this specific topic, I lost interest in protocol troubleshooting when destination was seen empty.

Indeed, in PR 5540 is when the work around removing obsolete WebRequest and replacing it with HttpClient begun and along with it the idea is to clean up & catch up with todos left on the code and the --debug-propfind-file option was agreed to be also deprecated as it seems it was useful to troubleshoot some deviant behavior from webdav servers which are unlikely to be an issue again.
