I have read the Apache site and searched here and on G but could not find an answer to this problem.

I have finally installed mod_speling and put SpellingCheck on into my .htaccess

mod_speling works great in all subdirectories but not in the main directory.

For example:

mydomain.com/ThisPage.htm exists but if I type mydomain.com/thispage.htm I get my regular 404.

if however I use

mydomain.com/folder/ThisPage.htm which exists and when I type mydomain.com/folder/thispage.htm mod_speling works as it should and sends me to the correctly spelt page.

What I cannot work out is why it will not work for pages in the main directory as not matter what I try I just get a 404.

Any ideas please?

That *is* strange... Maybe someone else has an answer.

Thanks Jim,

I am not sure what is causing this. I have rebuilt Apache, and also made sure that mod_speling is installed on the httpsd but the problem still happens.

Anything in the main directory causes a 404 when it should check the caps. Weird.

Any ideas?
