Warrick Help: Convert URLs to Lowercase? Home

Although many websites use case-sensitive URLs, some do not. For example, the following two URLs access the same website even though one URL uses "COMP" and the other "comp":

http://www.harding.edu/COMP/

http://www.harding.edu/comp/

Websites that are case-insensitive typically use a case-insensitive file system like Windows. If the website you are recovering ignored the case of its URLs when it was active, then you want to select Yes for this option. Otherwise (or if you are not sure), select No. By selecting Yes, Warrick will convert all URLs to lowercase and therefore treat URLs with different cases the same. This could make the recovery take much less time to complete.
