I have looked all around apache's documentation on how to upgrade from 2.2
to 2.4, but they don't include much about using PerlAddAuthzProvider or
PerlAuthenHandler.
I have this config section:
PerlAddAuthzProvider membersuser Application::User::Members->authorize24
<DirectoryMatch ^.*/members/>
DirectoryIndex disabled
PerlAuthenHandler Application::User::Members->authenticate24
#PerlAuthenHandler Application::User::Members::authenticate24
AuthType Application::User::Members
AuthName "Members"
Require membersuser testing123
</DirectoryMatch>
But for some reason, my authorize24 subroutine is being called before my
authenticate24 subroutine.
I have simplified those 2 subroutines down to printing debugging info to
the error log, (the authen sub sets $r->user('testing')), but I cannot
figure out why the handlers are called in the wrong order.
Not a solution, just a couple of questions, to make sure that we are seeing the issue
correctly :
1) /is/ the authenticate24 subroutine ever called ? Can you see that ?
2) what is the exact request URL used, when you encounter this issue ?
And then a tentative suggestion :
<DirectoryMatch ^.*/members/>
can be probably be replaced with the equivalent
<DirectoryMatch /members/>
which should be a little bit more efficient.
