Force lowercase URLs when accessing client #85

Closed mdpiper closed 8 years ago

mdpiper commented 8 years ago

"WMT" is the name of our application, so it's quite natural that a user would try to access WMT with the URL https://csdms.colorado.edu/WMT. However, this doesn't work1. The right way is to convert uppercase characters to lowercase with mod_rewrite. This involves messing around with the httpd.conf file on _diluvium_, which scares me a bit.

[1] Well, it kinda works: I made a symlink from "WMT" to "wmt" in the CSDMS webroot, but this only works when I'm in the office (on the colorado.edu domain?). ↩

UnixOps fixed this for us. Yay, UnixOps!
