Case sensitive locations on macos x

dobe · November 30, 2009, 3:56pm

hi all

we found out, that at least on macosx nginx 0.7.64 the location
directives are not case sensitive, in particular the exact match
locations.

is there any way to get the same behaviour as on linux where those
directives are case sensitive (e.g. through a compile time option?)

thanks in advance, bernd

Yes, since a typical MacOSX file system is case insensitive.

./configure --with-cc-opt=“-D NGX_HAVE_CASELESS_FILESYSTEM=0”
