I have a folder which has sub folders where some of them contain .htaccess files.

But if I use the search tool I do not find any of these files.

Also using in terminal:

find ~/web '.htaccess'

leaves me with nothing.

What is the problem here?

As far as I know, the dash does not search for hidden files for security reasons.

(Files starting with . (dot) are hidden files).

To search in a Terminal use -name

find ~/web -name '.htaccess'
