[users@httpd] Authentication Troubles

I'm trying to move to Apache 2.2.2 and I'm running into some
authentication troubles.  
When I enter the correct username/password it authenticates properly.
When I enter an invalid username, I get prompted up to three times and
it fails with a 401 like expected.  My problem is when I attempt to
authenticate with a valid username and provide an invalid password.  It
fails with a 500 error and this message is in the error log "[3692]
auth_ldap authenticate: user admin authentication failed; URI /
[ldap_simple_bind_s() to check user credentials failed][Invalid
Credentials]".  It only prompts me once.  If I don't enter the correct
password, it fails for the browser session.  Has anyone else seen this?
Any suggestions on what's wrong?  Thanks in advance.
,
Josh.
 
Here's my authentication configuration:
 
    <AuthnProviderAlias ldap test>
      AuthLDAPURL ldap://localhost/ou=people
<ldap://localhost/ou=people> 
    </AuthnProviderAlias>
 
    <Location />
      AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off
      AuthName "Test"
      AuthType Basic
      AuthBasicProvider test
      require valid-user
    </Location>

That doesn't look right.  Should be "ldap".
