I've recently moved my server to new hardware, upgraded to RH7, etc.
I copied (or thought I did) all the relevant info over properly. Now when
a user tried to log into the secure site, even with a valid ID/PW, the
error log reports:
[Mon Nov 13 10:23:20 2000] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX]
(13)Permission denied: Could not open password file: /etc/httpd/conf/users
[Mon Nov 13 10:23:20 2000] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] user jbrown
not found: /
The relevant part of the httpd.conf is:
<Directory "/web/httpsd/html">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride AuthConfig
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
and the .htaccess looks like this:
AuthName "Our Secure Web"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/conf/users
AuthGroupFile /etc/httpd/conf/groups
require group users
I feel as if there is a simple solution that I'm overlooking. Any
thoughts from those smarter than me?
I've tried things like changing the permissions, user, group, etc on the
users file. I've
also regenerated the users file and the groups file from scratch.
Thanks in advance for your help.
