Hello Christopher,
The full admin control panel finally works but with some strange thing!
Here is my file /etc/httpd/conf.d/BackupPC.conf content:
#########
Alias /BackupPC /var/www/html/BackupPC
ScriptAlias /BackupPC_Admin /BackupPC_Admin
SCGIMount /BackupPC_Admin 127.0.0.1:4000
<Directory /BackupPC_Admin>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 127.0.0.1
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /etc/BackupPC/BackupPC.users
AuthName "BackupPC Community Edition Administrative Interface"
require valid-user
</Directory>
##########
I also set backuppc with a password in the file /etc/BackupPC/BackupPC.users
I also set $Conf{CgiAdminUsers}='backuppc' in the file config.pl.
However, when I browse to http://localhost/BackupPC_Admin , I will get
banned by "403 Forbidden".
After I've removed this line from the above file:
ScriptAlias /BackupPC_Admin /BackupPC_Admin
I will then get full admin access to the control panel with being asked
for authentication.
How do I repair the Apache authentication process?
Yours faithfully,
Timmy
