<p>All the DaV webapps for sites and repositories follow the same model of application.</p>

<p>This model of application is implemented as a directory called $(webapp.directory) with the following content:</p>

<p>To ensure the installation worked (at least for reading), point your web browser to <code><a href="http://localhost:8080/manager/html/list">http://localhost:8080/manager/html/list</a></code> with a valid user.</p>

<p>Create a file in each of the application directories (with each file a different name).</p>

<p>Then click on each of the applications links, which should be :</p>
<ul>
