A "file not found" error occurs. "CheckSpelling on" does not provide a workaround for this problem. Files with lower case names and files on HPFS formatted drives can be accessed without problems. >How-To-Repeat: Create a NFS mount to drive X:. Alias /somepath/ X:/somepath/ in the Apache configuration file. Try to access the file X:\somepath\MixedCaseName with http://mysite/somepath/MixedCaseName or http://mysite/somepath/mixedcasename (both ways fail). In contrast, try accessing X:\somepath\lowercasename with http://mysite/somepath/lowercasename (it works). >Fix: Allow override of URL case conversion in the configuration file. Preferably, allow override on directories specified in the configuration file. Alternatively, just eliminate the conversion to lower case. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, ] [you need to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line ] [and leave the subject line UNCHANGED.
