image extension is case sensitive- what to do?
 

Is there something I can do to get the image extension not to be case sensitive?
Most of my products have images with .jpg extension but I have a few with .JPG and those are not showing up. I can't go through each one because I have over 30,000 products.

By the way, I am using the Telafirma mod for the images.
Thanks

Unix is case sensitive. You can run an sql query on the database to replace the extension on everything in one swoop.

Thanks for responding.
Is there a way to go through the images and replace the .JPG ones with .jpg?
Changing it in the database only helps if I know which ones have the uppercase and which ones have the lowercase.
In the database, they are all lowercase. In my image folder, most are lowercase and a few are uppercase - I just do not know which ones are which (unless I go through one by one).
Thanks again

Uggg...that is a headache :(

I have a program that will batch rename files called renamer4mac, it's for mac computers you know ;) anyway I could download all of the files, rename them all and then reupload them,

solution
 

I ended up running a php script that went through the directory and wrote to a file each image ending in uppercase letters.
I then took the list and imported it into a database and through a few queries, generated product codes from the image names (image 123.JPG has a product code of CR00123).
I used the import products from the admin site (using the fields productcode and thumbnail) to stick the new image names into the database.
I am not sure if I am too clear, but it worked and was not that complicated.
Thank you for your help
