It's always been like this in 10.4 AFAIK. You can turn off the HFS module
if you want Apache to ignore case on Mac OS X Server.

Okay, so which is it? I'll surmise that it should be 'OFF' to get rid of case sensitivity since my server is case sensitive and my HFS module is checked.

That would make sense. Apache was developed for case-sensitive volumes on Unix/Linux.


Apple's default for HFS+ is to create case-insensitive volumes and therefore turns hfs_apple_module on by default also.

Therefore turning off the module should restore Apache's case- sensitive nature in your environment which is using a case-sensitive volume.

You should have stuck with the default!
