A method of performing runtime administration of an operational computer software product by using a WebDAV (Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning) client to access a WebDAV server, comprising steps carried out at the WebDAV client of: creating, 21, an administration command document containing an administrative operation to be carried out on the operational computer software product; building, 22, a WebDAV identifier to be used in accessing the WebDAV server including placing an administrative command type corresponding to said administration command document in a collection field of said WebDAV identifier; and making a WebDAV PUT call, 23, including said administration command document and said WebDAV identifier, to the WebDAV server. The server recognises, 31, that the command type is not a collection name and interprets it, 32, as an action to be performed on the software product. The action may be switching on a diagnostic trace facility.
