Hi,
   I am using Alfresco 1.0 on Linux. I am using Jakarta Webdav client to access the store. I can create files and directories without a problem. But, I am unable to 'copy'  files. After I create a file, I attempt to make a copy in the same directory. The copy is listed as 0 byte length in the Alfresco web-front end. When I click on it to view its nonexistent contents I get:

   The node's content is missing:
   node: workspace://SpacesStore/b3b40607-5582-11da-abb0-456e71da37cb
   reader: null 
Please contact your system administrator.

I get the following exception:
11:35:52,354 ERROR [alfresco.webdav.protocol] Internal Server Error:

I now see that this bug has been identified as
http://www.alfresco.org/jira/browse/AR-182 .

It's kind of a showstopper.

Hi,

We've done some major refactoring in the WebDAV *Method classes.  Most of the repository interaction is now done through the FileFolderService.

The issue cannot be reproduced any more.
