Hi,
I've been trying to configure a .htaccess file on a new installation of
Debian.
The authentication module is running, since this works
<Directory /home/prosourc/images>
AllowOverride FileInfo
</Directory>
.htaccess
ErrorDocument 404 test.html
IE if I access http://www.onexus.com/images/wrongstuff I get the correct
response, a silly test page
If I try and configure the directory /home/prosourc/public_html/admin with
<Directory /home/prosourc/public_html/admin/>
AllowOverride AuthConfig
</Directory>
.htaccess file
AuthUserFile /etc/apache/passwd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Test"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
And then access that directory from the web, I am prompted for a user name
and password.
I enter the user name and password, but nothing really happens, the
following line is in the log file
[Thu Dec 7 16:55:22 2000] [error] user dev not found: /admin
On Redhat it will tell you it can't find the authentication file in the
error log.
I've tried
AuthUserFile I-dont-exist
...
and removing the AuthUserFile directive entirely and this doesn't make any
difference to the error logged, I've been trawling the net for days, any ideas?
Anthony
