Try the following changes on your server:

Open "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" and look for the following blocks:

<Limit GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>
  Order allow,deny Allow from all
</Limit>
<LimitExcept GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>
   Order deny,allow Deny from all
</LimitExcept>

Then just add PUT and DELETE after PROPFIND. Then Restart httpd by "/sbin/service httpd restart" or service httpd restart.

Note: In some servers , mostly the ones with a control panel (DA,cPanel,..) you may change this file :/etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-directories.conf

I hope it solves your problem.
