I have tried two different Apache::AuthCookie subclasses: Apache::AuthTicket 0.31 Apache::AuthCookieDBI 1.18
Apache::AuthCookie comes with an example login.pl, as well as does Apache::AuthCookieDBI. The symptom I was seeing: my browser would submit the form generated by login.pl: [Wed May 22 17:05:45 2002] [error] auth_type Apache::AuthTicket [Wed May 22 17:05:45 2002] [error] auth_name CredTest [Wed May 22 17:05:45 2002] [error] ses_key_cookie [Wed May 22 17:05:45 2002] [error] uri /credentials/private/index.html I was verifing via tcpdump that my browser was sending the data via POST. I could now wait forever, until the connection gets reset. However, if I got impatient, and terminated the request, I'd then see only then that the Apache::AuthTicket handler was getting my data: [Wed May 22 17:05:49 2002] [error] credential_0 foo [Wed May 22 17:05:49 2002] [error] credential_1 bar [Wed May 22 17:05:49 2002] [error] ses_key expires:1022102449:hash:68938c9521597c10fe1d165780b032fd:version:1:time:1022101549:user:foo It turns out both of these example scripts use a 'POST' method; if I change that to a 'GET' method, Apache::AuthTicket works out-of-the-box. (I haven't re-tested Apache::AuthCookieDBI.) I have no idea why POST _doesn't_ work, mind you... Just an FYI to the public at large...
