Neat Linked-file Bug, Possibly
#1
Hey Steve, can you duplicate this and let me know if it does it for you?

Host a simple PDF file... and then deep-link to it directly.

Can you download it via the link shown in the message post? I tried it earlier with 2 PDFs from home and it didn't work. Then, I put them both into one RAR file and presto... downloading works. It all stayed within the same source directory, etc.

I was getting 404s saying file not found, but the capitalization and formatting was right (all lowercase, single filename, no spaces, .pdf extension).

Thanks man!

There's no reason for one set of links to work, and another to not work..

HTTP links are all the same ...

let's try a TTC map

yup, that works.. check your server settings.. or DNS if domain not found...

most likely a soft user interface error... just remove the faulty device inputing to the keyboard!

It very well could have been a PEBKAC error (Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair).

I'll check it again at lunch.

Testing - http://teamx.webhop.org/focusfiles/FocusedPC.pdf

OK, that works. Same directory as the ones that failed. WTF?

Wait, I figured it out. When I RARed the files on my PC, I had "show extensions for known file types" enabled. When I RARed it, it preserved the extensions. When I copied them over flat to the webserver, Win2K (with show extensions off) tacked on another ".pdf" to the filename.

Essentially, it was filename.pdf.pdf

Whoops. Not really my fault, but I should have noticed it. Nothing to see here, move along :ph34r:
