http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36399 Summary: .htaccess can't parse to long file names after each other Product: Apache httpd-2.0 Version: 2.1-HEAD Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows 2000 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Core AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on win32 Apache installs to c:\program files\apache group\apache2\ so if you put your .htpasswd file in conf and then put the line "AuthUserFile c:/program files/apache group/apache2/conf" in your .htaccess file you will get an error "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/.htaccess: AuthUserFile takes 1-2 arguments, text file containing user IDs and passwords" in error.log it doesn't help to put quotes around the path or parts of the path. i put htpasswd in several directories and it worked as far a C:/Program Files/ after that apache doesn't like long file names w/ spaces. Solution - put your htpasswd file in a dir that contains no spaces in its name i.e. c:\apache. Apache should remember its unix roots and install itself to c:\apache\ and not rely on windows long file names. who knows if the windows OS really knows how to deal w/ it ? notice windows installs itself in c:\windows c:\winnt and does not relay on long file names and names w/ spaces in it. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
