Hi gil. I've never seen this problem and so downloaded the published zip to test specifically. I still can't recreate the error. I definitely see the PDF vs. pdf directory naming issue, but it hasn't broken anything for me yet. What was your exact search and which hit did you click on? (Regardless, I'll pass this along for fixing in the future... if you're having problems, others likely are, as well.)

BTW, this is indeed still the 4Q16 set. We periodically need to refresh existing zips for various reasons. The sets for a quarter are posted near the end of the quarter.

So I just DLed the PDF refresh from:

(I could wonder why a .zip of PDFs is in a /html/ directory.)
The README says:

* README *
This zip contains all the PDFs for the z/OS V2R2 4Q16 Refresh.
To search across all books, use Adobe acrobat reader and open the ".pdx" file
found in the PDF subdirectory.

I thought the previous version was 4Q16 so this should be 1Q17.

So I start browsing and get 404:

File not found

Firefox can’t find the file at 
/Users/paulgilm/Desktop/Transients/SC27-8430-04/pdf/iea3b611.pdf.

    Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
    Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

So it asks for:  
/Users/paulgilm/Desktop/Transients/SC27-8430-04/pdf/iea3b611.pdf
What's there is: 
/Users/paulgilm/Desktop/Transients/SC27-8430-04/PDF/iea3b611.pdf

... and *they* have the nerve to tell *me* to check capitalization!  It's their
link in their ".pdx" file.

Grrr.  I suppose I can rename the ".PDF" directory to ".pdf" and try again.

Windows rots the brain.
