Basically, it is caused by the fact that HFS+ is case insensitive. I have filed a bug report. In the meantime I have a workaround: http://devious.jpl.nasa.gov/php Matthew Vaughn has posted an excellent tutorial for getting PHP and MySQL working together on OS X Public Beta. He uses an older version of PHP; so if you're using 4.0.3pl1 be sure to follow the steps in my link above. http://www-u.life.uiuc.edu/~mwvaugh/MacOSX/mysqlphpapache.html Good luck. -------------------------------- Derek Slye NASA/Jet Propulsion Laboratory Mission Software Systems Section (818) 354-4119
