also disable apache MultiViews

MultiViews is a content-negotiation option for apache that will, when requesting /resource try to serve /resource.ext. if you have a blog.php this can lead to /blog serving you blog.php instead.

this can be quite common with mounted apps.

great thanks to Rafael Filipek for discovering this.
