[users@httpd] Mis-stated error, still not working: Apache/Redhat Simple AuthType Basic notworking :( help please

Actually, I was mistaken. Mea Culpa-
/home/www is not document root for www.escrip.com. That's just where the
pass file is being kept (/home/www/.esipasswd). The doc root is
/home/www/escripinc_pub. /home/www is not docroot for any virtualhost. So
that is a huge mistake on my part (big). I was getting confused between two
different config files i was looking at for separate servers. Forgive me
for the confusion. On to the error:
>
> Also, why is it <Directory /> 'Root' instead of <Directory
> someValidPath>?

I was wondering that also. As my apache is a bit rusty ... perhasp that is
an error. I believed <Directory /> referred to the doc root, basically
wherever http://reports.auto-rebates.com pointed to. And since all files in
http://reports.auto-rebates.com should require the auth, that is why I put
<Directory />
Is that not correct?
Anyway, I had used <Directory /home/www/reports.auto-rebates.com> as well ..
same problem. No error log entry. Access log entry is normal web serving
with no auth.
Thanks
Ben

[users@httpd] Simplified explanatoin: Apache/Redhat Simple AuthType Basic notworking :( help please
Posted by Ben Yau <by...@cardcommerce.com>.
Okay, in an effort to get it working and not understand, i copied and pasted
a working configuration. Still doesn't work.
Here are the two virtual host configs . The first is for
www.youthfocusfund.com . The auth DOES WORK on this one. The second is for
the reports.auto-rebates.com. The auth DOES NOT WORK on this one. Any
guesses ? Thanks ! I'm literraly tearing my hair out on this one.
Eventually I'll be able to cancel my tuesday haircut appointment (hey ,and
save me some dough :)
