Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions about this.
I rebuilt httpd-2.0.40-11.5 from the RPM source to change the content
directory to /home/htdocs, so SUEXEC will work from there. Anyways, had no
problem rebuilding RPM, installing it and getting SUEXEC to work like I
wanted.
The problem is that with the rebuilt Apache does not seem to be reading
.htaccess and .htpasswd files correctly. The LoadModule directive for both
mod_auth and mod_access are uncommented. And Apache is not displaying the
.ht files through the browser, so it seems like mod_access is partially
working.
I tried serveral tests.
.htaccess
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
The above .htaccess file after restarting Apache did not block access to the
directory.
.htaccess
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
The above .htaccess file after restarting Apache did not block access to the
directory.
.htaccess
AuthType Basic
AuthName "By Invitation Only"
AuthUserFile /home/htdocs/samplesite.com/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
The above .htaccess file after restarting Apache did not make Apache ask for
a userid and password before serving the page.
Did I miss something in the spec file when rebuilding Apache?
Any help would be appreciated.
