http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28769 MultiViews on, /partial should return /partial.* in preference to /partial/ ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-05-04 16:17 ------- I've sent this comment to André directly. But I think the correct place of this comment is this database. So: I have a directory AND a file also. And if I use an URI WITHOUT a trailing slash, I expect to get a file... instead of a directory. I mean I think Apache should *differentiate* URIs if a directory and a file (with a similar name) exists. Currently Apache completes my URI, put a trailing slash at the end of it and then serve it as a directory nevertheless there is a file in the filesystem also, and I use correct URI which points to that file... And here is his answer: >>I have a directory AND a file also. And if I use an URI WITHOUT a >> trailing slash, I expect to get a file... instead of a directory. That's what I've understood. The point is, why do you expect that? The directory with exactly the name requested does exist. The redirect to the trailing slash thereafter is just for making the URI canonical. >>I mean >> I think Apache should /*differentiate* URIs if a directory and a file >> (with a similar name) exists. Perhaps an option for mod_negotiation would be feasible.
