It is indeed working now. I can't see any reference on the wiki https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6#URL_.2B_authentication to the deprecation of Basic Auth on the API. Personally I am happy with Basic over HTTPS for the moment. As I said this is a private program and I do not currently intend to publish it to a wider audience. If that changes then I agree, OAuth would be the way to go. Colin___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

I only reverted upload, not the method he is using.

It's a cgimap bug - previously it just ignored basic authentication which was fine because it only handled calls where it was optional. The version does do it but has a bug - we have a fix in hand which should be rolled out shortly. In the meantime try using your username instead of email address and make sure you get he case right and it will hopefully work.

See https://github.com/zerebubuth/openstreetmap-cgimap/issues/189 Your app should be working again right now as Tom has reverted back to the Rails implemetation, still you should likely be using OAuth to start with.
