How to enable HTTP PUT requests in Apache httpd

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • How "PUT requests" can be enabled on Apache httpd.
  • How can I check whether PUT requests are enabled or disabled.

  • When PUT requests are restricted, you should get the following HTML in return after attempting a PUT:

    <HTML><HEAD>
<TITLE>ERROR: The requested URL could not be retrieved</TITLE>
</HEAD><BODY>
<H1>ERROR</H1>
<H2>The requested URL could not be retrieved</H2>
<HR>
<P>
While trying to retrieve the requested URL, the following error was encountered:
<UL>
<LI>
<STRONG>
Unsupported Request Method and Protocol
</STRONG>
</UL>
