404 Page Not Found, except for HTTPS
Permalink
I am having a hard time figuring this one out, especially since I have a development box that does not have the same problem. I am getting a 404 error on http://www.compco.com/sitemap/ but not on the HTTPS version (https://www.compco.com/sitemap/).
Here is the access log below - the first entry is HTTPS and the second is HTTP.
Please help point me in the right direction!

thats really weird, does it happen on any other pages?
No, it only occurs on this page. If I move the page to another folder (outside of home), it works fine. When I move it back, the problem arises again.
I found the following error message in my apache2 error log:
So I am thinking, why is "/sitemap/" becomming "/sitemap.xml/"? What is different about the SSL and non-SSL website?
It turns out that the non-SSL site had MultiViews enabled and the SSL site did not. I negated the MultiViews option and the non-SSL site no longer generates a 404 error.
