Linux Case Sensitivity

Linux is case-sensitive when it comes to file and directory names. This means that FileName.txt and filename.txt are seen as completely different files, and Images and images are seen as completely different directories.

Some operating systems (like Windows) are not case-sensitive, but capitalization matters when working with Linux-based systems.

If you're having trouble with file or directory names, please make sure the capitalization matches exactly between your local machine and your HelioHost account if you're on a Linux server.
