Dolphin can't copy webdav files or reconnect (Kubuntu 14.04)

So, I can access webdavs://remoteplace/dav/remotefolder by copy-pasting to path bar (I couldn't get the "Add Network Folder" dialog to work...and copy-pasting seems easier). All the files that I expect are listed, but then I can't copy any of the files. Instead of the actual file I get an HTML document. I tried Konqueror and Krusader just to see what happened and I had the same problem. Then I tried nautilis, nemo, and thunar (copy-pasting) and I can connect to davs://remoteplace/dav/remotefolder/ folder and copy the files properly from there.

Also, how do I reconnect after a failed attempt? Whenever I put my password incorrectly it logs me into the blank dolphin page and then I don't know how to try to reconnect.

What am I doing wrong? KDE 4.13.3 and Kubuntu 14.04. Thanks for the help!

I'm not sure how to clear the incorrect password i'm afraid.
With regards to the HTML document though - does this contain anything of relevance or is it simply blank?

Someone was trying to help me after I filed a bug (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=339289), but in the end I gave on debugging up since they couldn't figure out what was wrong.

I have resorted to using nemo for accessing webdav files. For the password thing, I think I had to delete the entry in KWallet and then it asked me for a password again and it started working.

Okay, if Dawit couldn't figure it out then I doubt we'll find out why this is occurring. Rather unfortunate that there are problems with KIO's Webdav support though.
