This is a really annoying problem that i have filed a bug report on.
It has happened for as long as I can remember in 10.4.x since we have
Thanks for verifying Pete that it's not just us. This is a
bummer. So Server Admin is off-limits for us for now. What seems
bizarre is that Apple uses all these case-fancy paths -- /Library/
WebServer, /Users/Sites, but then creates an admin tool that
disrespects case. Very annoying.
For us, this came up when installing Lyceum (the multi-user fork
of WordPress), and creating an alias from /blogs (virtual) to /
Library/WebServer/Documents/wwwrooot/include/lyceum/src. Lyceum
would then look in some subdirectory of that location for its own
data, e.g. /blogs/username would be mapped by Lyceum to include/
lyceum/src/wp-content/blogs/3 . And from there, it would try to
pull up index.php -- which is where things probably connect to the
Directory override stuff you mention below.
Anyway, long story short is that this bug breaks applications.
What you fail to realize is that Apple's default volume format is
case-insensitivity. I believe there is a warning about formatting
your volumes using case-sensitivity in one of the docs and only to
use it for the sake of legacy compatibility or some-such. Anyway, on
a case-insensitive volume, this is all a non-issue and Apple's apps
are working as they intended.
