Hello Nginx people! I hope you can help me. I'm having an infuriating problem with auth digest via the HttpAuthDigestModule.
The first site I added to Nginx used the same htdigest password file as my Apache webserver (on the same box) uses. This works fine. However, I added a second website that uses an almost identical configuration but for some reason I simply cannot authenticate for this second site. I'm using the same htdigest password file, same username and password. The first website I can authenticate, the second one refuses to authenticate me. I can't figure out why! Here is the first website's conf file: ######### # Project 1 configuration upstream project1_backend { server unix:/var/www/project_1/tmp/php.sock; } server { listen 8083; server_name dev.project_1.site.com; root /var/www/project_1/web; access_log /var/www/project_1/logs/nginx_access.log; error_log /var/www/project_1/logs/nginx_error.log; # strip app.php/ prefix if it is present rewrite ^/app\.php/?(.*)$ /$1 permanent; auth_digest_user_file /etc/apache-digest-passwd; location / { auth_digest 'my-realm'; index app.php; try_files $uri @rewriteapp; } location @rewriteapp { rewrite ^(.*)$ /app.php/$1 last; } # pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on php socket location ~ ^/(app|app_dev|config)\.php(/|$) { fastcgi_pass project1_backend; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param HTTPS off; } } ######### The second configuration file looks like this: ######### # Project 2 configuration file upstream project2_backend { server unix:/var/www/project_2/tmp/php.sock; } server { listen 8083; server_name project_2.site.com; root /var/www/project_2/web; access_log /var/www/project_2/logs/nginx_access.log; error_log /var/www/project_2/logs/nginx_error.log error; # strip app.php/ prefix if it is present rewrite ^/app\.php/?(.*)$ /$1 permanent; auth_digest_user_file /etc/apache-digest-passwd; location / { auth_digest 'my-realm'; index app.php; try_files $uri @rewriteapp; } location @rewriteapp { rewrite ^(.*)$ /app.php/$1 last; } # pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on php socket # REMOVE config from choices on PRODUCTION! location ~ ^/(app|app_dev|config)\.php(/|$) { fastcgi_pass project2_backend; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param HTTPS off; } } ######### I've tried creating a new password file with htdigest and adding a user/password to it, then referencing that new password file in the second website's conf file but I still can't authenticate. Can anyone shed some light on this for me please?
