Thank you Maxim,

Actually it's a video encoding appliance which seems to push files with POST request.
Please find below the error logs :

Don't take care of the authentication issue, that's another issue.

POST requests are more or less undefined in WebDAV (apart from 
relatively new RFC5995, which defines a discovery mechanism 
through which servers can advertise support for POST requests with 
"add collection member" semantics).

What do you expect to happen on POST with WebDAV resources?
