Have you tried changing AuthGroupFile?  That has "dev" in it, so
might explain the "dev" in the error...  You can use AuthUserFile
without specifying the group file at all - just remove the AuthGroupFile
line.

Also, your "require" has a lowercase "R" (it probably doesn't matter,
but I'm being picky...)
