Bug ID: 59557
Summary: The fix reported in 2.4.4 failed to fix Password
Mismatch problem with Basic AuthType
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.4.18
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: mod_auth_basic
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Steps to reproduce:
Place an .htaccess file in a directory being served by apache2 version 2.4.18
Let the file contain the following:
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Quizzard Login"
AuthUserFile .htpasswd
AuthGroupFile .htgroup
Require user steve
Place an .htgroup file next to the .htpasswd file with the following contents.
Admins: steve
Now the .htgroup file is not being used because were requiring user not group.
Enter the following command on the command line
/the/dir$ htpasswd -nb steve ILikeFrenchFries > .htpasswd
The .htpasswd file now contains:
steve:$apr1$TrIKX1SW$SJRWbFFP4g7MFgyKaXCC21
But at any rate the following command executes as follows:
/the/dir$ htpasswd -vb .htpasswd steve ILikeFrenchFries
Password for user steve correct.
The /the/dir is used here as an example but in my server it is the correct
file. What happens when I attempt to access content in this directory is tha I
am prompted o enter my username and pasword using http authentication. When I
enter the user "steve", and the password "ILikeFrenchFries", apache reports a
Password mismatch error in the error.log and the dialog continues to prompt for
a password until I hit cancel.
