Hi there!

I have Apache installed and for some reason I do not need to write any file extensions to open a page. Examples:

I can open http://localhost/thispage.html
But this also opens this same page: http://localhost/thispage

This works for all extensions (html/html/php) I tried. However, I do not want this to happen! 

I checked out the default config file 000-default, but there was nothing there that affects this. I removed all of the rewrite instructions (I do use Apache Rewrite for certain sites) and the behavior continued. Note that this affects ALL of the sites installed. 

Anybody any idea??

Thanks!
Paul
