Hey Rodrigo,

Thanks for your reply.

Well those errors are pulled from the Chrome developer tools.

 I notice if I do a GET on that file using both all lower case as well as
the upper case that's in the URL I get the same result:

[root at aozwsls00019la apache2]# GET
http://stage.theshopatmycompanystudios.com/mycopmanyStore/images/altImg.png
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>404 Not Found</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Not Found</h1>
<p>The requested URL /mycompanyStore/images/altImg.png was not found on
this server.</p>
</body></html>

[root at aozwsls00019la apache2]# GET
http://stage.theshopatmycompanystudios.com/mycompanystore/images/altImg.png
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>404 Not Found</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Not Found</h1>
<p>The requested URL /mycpmpanystore/images/altImg.png was not found on
this server.</p>
</body></html>

This is how that file looks on the command line. I made a symlink to
account for the change in case, because I realize that's relevant:

-rw-r--r--. 1 daemon daemon 128 Aug 27 12:22
/var/www/nbcstore/images/altImg.png

-rw-r--r--. 1 daemon daemon 128 Aug 27 12:22
/var/www/mycompanyStore/images/altImg.png

Still not sure why I'm not able to do a GET on that and those other files.
Appreciate your input tho! And any other advice is certainly welcome!

Tim
