Package: nginx
Version: 1.4.6-1~bpo70+1
1) I installed 'nginx/wheezy-backports' via puppet, and manually confirmed that
nginx, nginx-full, and nginx-common are all the same version and installed (via
'aptitude show foo')
2) On setting up a vhost with basic auth, I received a 'basic_auth is an
invalid parameter' message and nginx failed to start:
root@uncle:~/puppet# nginx -t
nginx: [emerg] invalid parameter "auth_basic" in
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/munin:10
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
3) I couldn't successfully troubleshoot it, so I manually did 'aptitude purge
nginx nginx-full nginx-common' to get rid of the backports version
4) I then manually installed nginx from the standard wheezy repo (version
1.2.1-2.2+wheezy2). This version of nginx passed 'nginx -t' as expected
The first part of the relevant config has nothing special:
server {
listen 80 default_server
auth_basic "Restricted stats";
auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/conf.d/.htpasswd;
location ^~ /cgi-bin/munin-cgi-graph/ {
(blah blah blah)
I'm not particularly familiar with the details of nginx compiled modules, but
it looks like the version in wheezy-backports is missing at least the
basic_auth module, if not more.
