With the headers directive out the dialog box comes up but you still can't login. If I remove the .htaccess file and include the information in access.conf the same problems exist. I have capitalized and put quotes arround strings with little effect. >How-To-Repeat: http://topweb.arc.nasa.gov/database >Fix: The rules for parsing .htaccess files have obviously changed - we need to know the proper syntax. >Audit-Trail: From: Alan Federman To: apache-bugdb@apache.org, apbugs@hyperreal.org Cc: Subject: Re: mod_auth-any/3559: .htaccess files ignored, misread Date: Fri, 18 Dec 1998 15:15:44 -0800 (PST) thanks for the acknowledgement here is some additional info: [Fri Dec 18 14:07:20 1998] [notice] httpd: child pid 5158 exit signal Segmentati on Fault (11) [Fri Dec 18 14:07:38 1998] [notice] httpd: child pid 5159 exit signal Segmentati on Fault (11) Error message when attempting to use .htaccess AuthDBM error box in browser "Document contains no data!" .htaccess file: AuthDBMUserFile /usr/local/etc/chat/db/users AuthDBMGroupFile /usr/local/etc/chat/db/users AuthName "Board Interactive Administration" AuthType Basic require group admin moderator ---- access.conf: Directory /export/home3/www/chat/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI AllowOverride All #AuthDBMUserFile /usr/local/etc/chat/db/users #AuthDBMGroupFile /usr/local/etc/chat/db/users #AuthName "Board Interactive Administration" #AuthType Basic #require group admin moderator ORDER ALLOW,DENY ALLOW FROM ALL ---- Release-Changed-From-To: 1.33, 1.32-1.3.3 Release-Changed-By: lars Release-Changed-When: Fri Dec 18 15:52:01 PST 1998 From: Lars Eilebrecht To: (Apache GNATS) Cc: Subject: Re: mod_auth-any/3559: .htaccess files ignored, misread Date: Sat, 19 Dec 1998 15:27:36 +0100 (CET) According to Alan Federman: > [Fri Dec 18 14:07:20 1998] [notice] httpd: child pid 5158 exit signal > Segmentation Fault (11) [...] > error box in browser "Document contains no data!"
