Apache is so case sensitive

I have no html on my server so everything is indexed. When you try to get to a specific Volume/Folder you can only do it by typing in everything exactly as it is typed in the file structure with intial caps.
I cannot duplicate this on two other backup XServers and I need to eliminate it from my production server.
Any suggestions would be most welcome!

Thats the way mac OS is. I just tried on my test server to allow me to view the directory on my raid from the web and I got the same error, although i just typed in http://ipaddress, I wonder if I try the whole path if that will work, even though in the config that is where I am pointing it to, so imo no it will not work.
Sorry to ramble, is there a way to fix this? How is the folder locally? Art or art? have you tried to change that?
Also here just dug this up in my files:
How can I make all my URLs case-insensitive with mod_rewrite?
You can't! The reasons are: first, that, case translations for arbitrary length URLs cannot be done via regex patterns and corresponding substitutions. One needs a per-character pattern like the sed/Perl tr|..|..| feature. Second, just making URLs always upper or lower case does not solve the whole problem of case-INSENSITIVE URLs, because URLs actually have to be rewritten to the correct case-variant for the file residing on the filesystem in order to allow Apache to access the file. And the Unix filesystem is always case-SENSITIVE.
But there is a module named mod_speling.c in the Apache distribution. Try this module to help correct people who use mis-cased URLs.
So Mac is built off NIX so no... That should solve it..
EDIT: You can make SAMBA handle you www requests but I wouldn't for security. Or make a redirector...

Mod_osso.conf - sso protected - case sensitive URL not working

Greetings,
I have modified my mod_osso.conf (see below) file to protect the following URL "http://host.domain.com:7777/test".
If you enter the above URL - you are properly challenged for a user-name and password. HOWEVER, if you enter "http://host.domain.com:7777/TEST" or any other variation /Test, /tEst, /teSt etc. SSO does not get enabled.
I'm missing something, what is it???
Thanks,
Bill G...

If you are on a UNIX-based server, URLs are always case-sensitive.
Enter an directive for every possible combination, or create the alias/redirect for each combination in the httpd.conf (recommended)

How to go from case-insensitive to case-sensitive HFS?

I installed Leopard server with the case-insensitive file system. Can I go from this to the case-sensitive HFS?
The trouble I am having is with installing Wordpress... The sign-up page does not work at all and looking in the Apache log files reveals 'child exit signal buss error (10) and turning up the logs, I get:

Which indicates that Apache is bombing out because of the HFS case-insensitive problem... anyone else agree?
So apart from getting the Wordpress people to fix this - can they? How do I go about changing the case sensitivity of the FS? Just don't tell me I have to re-install Leopard!!

I just discovered the crash logs... Can anyone give me a clue to what is cause the bus error from this?

Alias directive case-sensitive?

I've come across an issue with the Alias directive... I set an alias in the ServerAdmin and realized that upon saving it converted everthing in the target path to lowercase.
The directive subsequently did not work. When I edit the path manually via the shell to be uppercased, the directive works fine.
My filesystem (per Disk Utility) is HFS Journaled, bot NOT case sensitive. So what gives? Is this a bug in the WebAdmin (shouldn't really convert to lowercase, should it?) or a bug in mod_alias? Or am I missing something alltogether?
Powebook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I do not know of a fix but I have implemented a work around.
1. Quit Server Admin as you are about to edit the config files by hand.
2. Open terminal and go to the sites directory containing the config files. Apologies for not being more specific, but it's been a while since I have had to edit these files and I am no longer dealing with a server.
3. Open the desired site conf file in your choice of editor. You will probably need to sudo to gain privileges to save the changes.
4. Find the section that contains all the aliases. I think this is the <IfModule mod_alias.c> section. Take note of the format of the aliases.
5. Add an Include directive (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/core.html#include) to include a file that you will create in a few steps. This file will contain aliases defined by hand. For example, if my web site was website.com I might call the file website_aliases.conf.
6. Save your edits and quit editing the file.
7. Create the file you referenced in the include directive and place your aliases in there. Example line from website_aliases.conf: Alias /image /ftp/pub/image
Check and make sure the privileges on the new file match the privileges of the other conf files.
Server Admin will not bother the include directive and will not touch any entries in the extra file referenced in the include directive. Server Admin will also not be aware of any of the aliases in the extra file referenced. This means that all aliases containing upper case letters must be manually entered.
Caution: My description is purposely vague in places because messing with config files by hand can get you into trouble if you are not careful. (Or I simply forgot to mention something My advice would be to use apachectl configtest to check your changes before you attempt to soft restart the web server. If you have made a mistake, the web server will fail to restart.
As far as restarting the web server after making changes to any apache config file, you can either use apachectl from the command line or simply open Server Admin, select the web server service, and toggle an option. This will cause the save button to be enabled and cause apache to soft restart and reread it's configuration.

About lucene's case sensitive

In ALV Report Filter selection should be case sensitive

Dear All,
since one field is case sensitive in database table , i have to fetch that in alv report , but when i am applying filter on that field its is simply fetching data with case description. if its in caps it should fetch caps data but in smaal case report showing no data
Regards,
Pankaj Vashista

Hi,
All text datas are case sensitive.
To make it work perfectly You have to Use the Keyword translate to Upper Case than display
Now filter can work.
Without Transalation to Upper Case filter will not work.

How do I install PSE8 on MAC with case sensitive drive?

I tried to install PSE8 for mac and i get an error saying it cannot be installed on a case sensitive drive.
Is there a fix for this?

What is the purpose of this?
I have my drive formatted case sensitive on purpose for more security and stability.
Why on earth would y'all choose to do this?

Is a Full Text Index search case sensitive or not in SQL Server 2012?

I setup full text index on my contact table and am attempting to run a search on it using the following query:
SELECT *
FROM sysdba.Contact C
WHERE CONTAINS(C.FirstName, 'Test')
OR CONTAINS(C.LastName, 'Test')
The problem is it's clearly running a case sensitive search. I did a quick search to find out how to change it to be case in-sensitive and found two pages (both for SQL Server 2012) with conflicting answers:
1 - MSDN - "Query with Full-Text Search" - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms142583(v=sql.110).aspx
Case sensitivity
Full-text search queries are case-insensitive. However, in Japanese, there are multiple phonetic orthographies in which the concept of orthographic normalization is akin to case insensitivity (for example, kana = insensitivity). This type of orthographic normalization
is not supported.
1 - TechNet - "Full-Text Search (SQL Server)" - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms142571(v=sql.110).aspx
Full-text queries are
not case-sensitive. For example, searching for "Aluminum" or "aluminum" returns the same results.
Can someone please explain this? Is it possible to do it without it being case sensitive? If yes, how?
(Sorry, I couldn't make those links b/c TechNet hasn't verified my account)
Thank you for your time and help,
Hanan

I am unable to reinstall Photoshop CS6 (I do have the serial number) on my Macbook Pro 10.9.5 (Mavericks os). and am getting the message "Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation." I am further told that "Adobe apps cannot be installed on case-sensitive drives, you need to Install the product onto an HFS+ or HFSJ non-case-sensitive drive."
What I don't understand is this: I originally bought and installed Photoshop CS6 back in March 2013, and it worked fine. Yesterday my hard drive had to be replaced and my computer person salvaged as much of what was on it as he could, but now I have to reinstall Photoshop. 1) Why did it work before and it's not working now? 2) Is there anything I can do that does not involve reformatting the hard drive?

It means what it says. The "computer person" formatted it wrongly/ unsuitably. it needs to be formatted again.

Print dialog options in case sensitive file system

Since changing the file system running Lion and Mountain Lion from Mac OS Extended (Journaled) to Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled), certain features in print dialogs have disappeared.
Particularly the option to print notes with slides in Microsoft Powerpoint are gone. Also, when choosing to print only 1 (or more, but not all) of multiple pages in Microsoft Word, the printer will nevertheless print all pages.
This problem occurs on printers of different brands, i.e. HP, Lexmark, Brother.
I was able to determine this problem by reproducing the issue on a cleanly installed Macbook Pro with OS X 10.8 formatted as Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) vs a cleanly installed Macbook Pro with OS X 10.8 formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), not Case-sensitive.
Has anyone else had the same problem and maybe a solution?

I just fixed this on my Mac. It is a bug in Microsoft Office... the Printer Dialog Extension (PDE) for Powerpoint is located in a directory named "Plugins", but PowerPoint is looking for it in "PlugIns". This obviously does not work in a case-sensitive filesystem.
Here are the steps to fix the issue:

How can I backup data from a case-sensitive volume to a NON-case-sensitive volume?

The case-sensitive volume in this instance being a desktop-mounted disk image volume.
A tragi-comedy in too many acts and hours
Dramatis Personae:
Macintosh HD: 27" iMac 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (iMac10,1), 12 GB RAM, 1 TB SATA internal drive
TB1: 1 TB USB external drive
TB2: 2 TB USB to Serial-ATA bridge external drive
Terabyte: a .dmg disk image and resulting desktop volume of the same name (sorry, I don't know the technical term for a .dmg that's been opened, de-compressed and mounted -- evanescently -- on the desktop)
Drive Genius 3 v3.1 (3100.39.63)/64-bit
Apple Disk Utility Version 11.5.2 (298.4)
Sunday morning (05/08/11), disk utility Drive Genius 3's drive monitoring system, Drive Pulse, reported a single bad block on an external USB2.0 1TB drive, telling me all data would be lost and my head would explode if I didn't fix this immediately. So I figured I'd offload the roughly 300 GB of data from TB1 to TB2 (which was nearly empty), with the intention of reinitializing TB 1 to remap the bad block and then move all its data BACK from TB 2. When I opened TB1's window in the Finder and tried to do a straight "Select All" and drag all items from TB1 to TB2, I got this error message:
"The volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup."
The error message didn't tell me WHICH volume had "the wrong case sensitivity for a backup," and believe me, or believe me not, this was the first time I'd ever heard that there WAS such a thing as "case sensitivity" for a drive. I tried dragging and dropping some individual folders -- some of them quite large, in the 40GB range -- from TB1 to TB2 without any problem whatsoever, but the majority of the items were the usual few-hundred-MB stuff that seems to proliferate on drives like empty Dunkin' Donuts coffee cups on the floor of my car, and I didn't relish the idea of spending an afternoon dragging and dropping dribs and drabs of 300GB worth of stuff from one drive to another.
Being essentially a simple-minded soul, I had what I thought was the bright idea that I could get around the problem by making a .dmg disk image file of the whole drive, stashing it on TB2, repairing and re-initializing TB1, and then decompressing the disk image I'd made of TB1, and doing the "drag and drop" of all the files in resulting desktop volume to TB1. So I made the .dmg of TB1, called "Terabyte," stashed that .dmg on TB2 (no error messages this time), re-initialized and then rebooted the iMac from my original Snow Leopard 10.6.1 disks and used Disk Utility to erase and initialize TB1 -- making sure that it was NOT initialized as case-sensitive, and installed a minimal system on TB1 from the same boot. Then I updated that 10.6.1 system to 10.6.7 with System Update, and checked to see that Disk Utility reported all THREE drives -- internal, 1TB, and 2TB -- as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), and no "case sensitive" BS. I also used Drive Genius 3's "information" function for more detailed info on all three drives. Except for the usual differing mount points, connection methods, and S.M.A.R.T. status (only the Macintosh HD internal, SATA 1TB drive supports S.M.A.R.T.), everything seemed to be oojah-***-spiff, all three drives showing the same Partition Map Types: GPT (GUID Partition Table.) Smooth sailing from here on out, I thought.
Bzzzzt! Wrong!
When I opened the Terabyte .dmg and its desktop volume mounted, I tried the old lazy man's "Select All" and drag all items from the desktop-mounted drive "Terabyte" to TB1, I got the error message:
"The volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup."
I then spent the next three hours on the phone with AppleCare (kids -- when you buy a Mac ANYTHING, cough up the money for AppleCare. Period.), finally reaching a very pleasant senior tech something-or-other in beautiful, rainy Portland, OR. Together we went through everything I had done, tried a few suggestions she offerred, and, at the end of three hours, BOTH of us were stumped. At least I didn't feel quite as abysmally stupid as I did at the beginning of the process, but that was all the joy I had gotten after two solid days of gnawing at this problem -- and I mean SOLID; I'm retired, and spend probably 12 hours a day, EVERY day, at the keyboard, working on various projects.
The AppleCare senior tech lady and I parted with mutual expressions of esteem, and I sat here, slowly grinding my teeth.
Then I tried something I don't know why I was so obtuse as to not have thought of before: I opened Apple's Disk Utility and checked the desktop-mounted volume Terabyte (Mount Point: /Volumes/Terabyte), the resulting volume from opening and uncompressing the .dmg "Terabyte".
Disk Utility reported: "Format : Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive)." Doh!
Obviously, TB1, the 1 TB USB external drive I'd actually bought as part of a bundle from MacMall when I bought my 27" iMac, and which I had initialized the first day I had the iMac up and running (late November 2009), had somehow gotten initialized as a Case-sensitive drive. How, I don't know, but I suspect the jerk behind the keyboard. Whatever the case, when I created the Terabyte disk image (the drive's original name: when I erased and re-initialized it -- see above -- I renamed it "1TB" for quick identification), the original drive's "Case-sensitive" format was encoded too. So when I tried to drag and drop EVERYTHING from the desktop-mounted volume "Terabyte" to the newly initialized and "blessed" (now THERE's a term from the past!), the system recognized it as an attempt as a total volume backup, and hit me with "The volume [the desktop-mounted volume "Terabyte" -- BB] has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup." And, of course, the reinitialized TB1 was now correctly formatted as NOT "case-sensitive."
Well, that solved the mystery (BTW, Disk Utility identified the unopened Terabyte.dmg as an "Apple UDIF read-only compressed {zlib}, which is why the .dmg file could be copied to ANY volume, case sensitive or not), but it didn't help me with my problem of having to manually move all that data from the desktop-mounted volume "Terabyte" to TB1. I tried to find a way to correct the problem at the .dmg AND opened-volume-from-.dmg level with every disk utility I had, to no avail.
Sorry for the long exposition, but others may trip over this "case-sensitive" rock in the road, and I wanted to make the case as clear as possible.
So my problem remains: other than coal shovel by coal shovel, is there any way to get all the data off this case-sensitive desktop-mounted volume "Terabyte" and onto TB1.
Not that I know whether it would made any difference or not, one of the things that got me into this situation was my inability to get "Time Machine" properly configured so it wasn't making new back-ups every (no lie) 15 minutes.
Philosophical bonus question: what's the need for this "case-sensitive," "NOT case-sensitive" option for disk initialization?
As always, thanks for any help.

"Am I to understand that you have a case-sensitive volume with data that you want to copy to a case-insensitive volume? And the Finder won't let you do it? If that's what the problem is, the reason should be obvious: on the source volume, you may have two files in the same folder whose names differ only in case. When copying that folder to the target volume, it's not clear what the Finder should do."
Yes, I understand all that... NOW.
What I had (have) is a USB external 1TB drive (henceforth known as "Terabyte") that I bought with my 27" iMac. I formatted, and put a minimal (to make it bootable) system on Terabyte the same day back in late November 2009 that I set up my 27" iMac. Somehow -- I don't know how -- Terabyte got initialized as "case-sensitive." I didn't even know at the time that there WAS such a thing as "case-sensitive" or "NOT case-sensitive" format.
Sunday morning (05/08/11), Drive Pulse, a toolbar-resident utility (that's Part of Drive Genius 3) that monitors internal and external drives for physical, problems, volume consistency problems, and volume fragmentation, reported a single bad block on the volume Terabyte, advising me that it would be best if I re-formatted Terabyte ASAP. I thought I could open Terabyte in a Finder window, Select All, and drag everything on the drive to ANOTHER USB external drive of 2 TB capacity (henceforth known as TB2). When I tried to do that, I got an error message:
"The volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup."
First I'd heard of "case sensitivity" -- I'm not too bright, as you seem to have realized.
Oddly enough (to me), I could move huge chunks of data, including a folder of 40GB, from Terabyte to TB2 with no problem.
Then the scenario unfolded per my too-convoluted message: several hours of trying things on my own, including making a .dmg of Terabyte (henceforth to be known as Terabyte.dmg) -- which left me with the exact same problem as described in the previous 4 paragraphs; and my 3 hours on the phone with AppleCare, who at least explained this case-sensitive business, but, after some shot-in-the-dark brainstorming -- tough to do with only one brain, and THAT on the OTHER end of the line -- the very pleasant AppleCare rep and I ended up equally perplexed and clueless as to how to get around the fact that a .dmg of a case-sensitive volume, while not case-sensitive in its "image" form (Terabyte.dmg), and thus able be transferred to TB1 or TB2 with no problems whatsoever, when opened -- either by double-clicking or opening in Disk Utility -- produced a desktop-mounted volume (henceforth known as the volume "Terabyte," the original name of the case-sensitive volume from which TB1.dmg had been made) that had the same case-sensitivity as the original from which it was made.
In the meantime, having gotten the data I needed to save off the physical USB "case-sensitive" volume Terabyte in the form of Terabyte.dmg, I erased and re-initialized the physical USB "case-sensitive" volume Terabyte, getting rif of the case sensitivity, and renaming it TB1. But it all left me back at square one, EXCEPT I had saved my data from the original "Terabyte" drive, and reformatted that drive to a NON- case-sensitive data now named TB1. The confusion here stems from the fact that problem case-sensitive drive, from which I made Terabyte.dmg, was originally named "Terabyte". When I re-initialized it as a NON case-sensitive drive, I renamed it TB1. I'm sorry about the confusing nomenclature, which I've tried to improve upon from my original message -- usual text-communication problem: the writer knows what he has in mind, but the reader can only go by what's written.
So, anyway, I still have the same problem, the desktop-mounted volume "Terabyte" still cannot be transferred in one whole chunk to either my internal drive, TB1, TB2, as the Finder interprets it as a volume backup (which it is), and reads the desktop-mounted volume "Terabyte" as case-sensitive, as the original volume -- from which the disk image Terabyte.dmg was made -- had been at the time I made it.
"As long as that situation doesn't arise, you should be able to make the copy with a tool that's less fastidious than the Finder, such as cp or rsync."
I'm afraid I have no idea what "cp or rsync" are. I'd be happy to be educated. That's why I came here.

Just trying to unmuddy the water a bit,,,

I am trying to install MasterCollection_CS6_LS16. When I click the install file I get this error message: We've encountered the following issues. Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation.

I am trying to install MasterCollection_CS6_LS16. When I double click the install file I get this error message: We've encountered the following issues. Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation. What does that mean? How should I proceed?

Hey iraravitz,
Could you please let me know what version of OS are working on.
You might receive this error when you attempt to install on a drive with the HFS+ Case Sensitive file system, which is not supported for installation of Adobe Creative Suite 6.
So, please try installing on a drive that has been formatted with a supported file system.
You might refer the KB doc link mentioned below for the same:
Error "Case-sensitive drives not supported" or similar install error | Mac OS
Let me know if this helps.

How can I transfer my iphoto library from a Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) harddrive to a Mac OS Extended (Journaled) hard drive?

Community,
Every time I try to transfer my iphoto library from a Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) harddrive to a Mac OS Extended (Journaled) hard drive, I receive the attached message: "You can't copy 'iPhoto Library' because it has the same name as another ideon on the destination volume, and that volume doesn't destinguish between upper- and lowercase letters in filenames."
My theory is, if I am able to unpackage my iphoto library, I can transfer each folder one at a time so that I can trouble shoot any "duplicates." Will this work?
Let's say that works. How can I repackage the library so iphoto recognizes it?
Is there a better way?
Thank you,
Jonathan

Can we assume that I don't have any naming conflicts? Clearly there are or else I wouldn't get the error I'm getting.
The error doesn't mean you have name conflicts. It means that the Finder won't take the chance that you might have them.
You're suggesting that all I would need to do would be to use Carbon Copy Cloner to transfer the files from the case-sensative harddrive to my Extended Journaled harddrive?
Yes. But I would just use the built-in rsync shell command. First, back up all data if you haven't already done so. Launch the Terminal application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the Terminal window, then press the space bar:
rsync -aE --delete
Now drag the iPhoto library you want to copy into the window. You should have something like this:
rsync -aE --delete /Users/you/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library
Drag the Pictures folder on the destination volume into the window. Now you have this (line will wrap on the page):
rsync -aE --delete /Users/you/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library /Volumes/something/Users/you/Pictures
Press return. The copying operation will start. When it finishes, you'll see a new dollar-sign ("$") prompt below what you entered. If there were no errors, you're done.

Create directory / object name must NOT be case sensitive

SQL Dev. 2.1 - the wizard, chosen from the left side navigator, submits a wrong create statement in which the object name becomes case-sensitive. This should not be so! Even if you write the new object name in small letters , the object name must end up in the data dictionary with capitals. kind regards Inger ([email protected])

Which wizard? If I use a create table wizard, for example, and enter the table in lower case, this is indeed stored in the DB as upper case, as you require.
Please provide more detail for your problem.

How to retrieve column names in a query in a case sensitive way

Given a query, I want to extract all the column names/aliases in the query in a case-sensitive way.
When I use dbms_sql.describe_columns() or java.sql.ResultSetMetaData classes getColumnName() or getColumnLabel()
it returns the columns name ONLY in Upper case.
My application needs to extract the column names in the same case as it appears in the query string.
Is there any API to get this without parsing the SQL query string?
Thanks
PS: The dbms_sql.describe_columns() returns the column name in upper case.
declare
IS
l_column_recs DBMS_SQL.DESC_TAB;
l_cur NUMBER;
l_column_count NUMBER;
BEGIN
l_cur := dbms_sql.open_cursor;
dbms_sql.parse(l_cur, 'select target_type from targets', dbms_sql.NATIVE);
dbms_sql.describe_columns(l_cur, l_column_count, l_column_recs);
FOR i IN l_column_recs.FIRST..l_column_recs.LAST
LOOP
dbms_output.put_line(l_column_recs(i).col_name);
end loop;
end;
/

As far as the result set is concerned, though, the column name is in all upper case. If you query the data dictionary, you would see that the TARGET_TYPE column in the TARGETS table is stored in upper case.
The way Oracle works is that column names that are not enclosed in double-quotes are converted to upper case in the data dictionary and elsewhere and then Oracle looks for the column name in the table definition. That is what allows Oracle to have case-insensitive identifiers unless a user specifies case-sensitive identifiers by enclosing the identifier in double quotes.
If you changed the query to be
SELECT target_type as "target_type"
FROM targetsOracle should report the alias in a case sensitive fashion because you've now indicated that the alias should be treated as case sensitive.
