Thanks Jen. I tried a few more things before posting to galaxy-dev, and it
turns out that I had the default virtual host still running, while I tried
to have a galaxy virtualhost running alongside it. I think it should be
possible to do that still, but it simplified and corrected it when I
removed the default virtual host from apache/sites-enabled
I have a second question now. Where would I put the .htaccess file for it
to be read correctly? I tried this line in my new virtualhost file, but no
password prompt appears
AccessFileName /home/galaxy/bin/galaxy-dist/static/.htaccess
More info:
All directories are chmod 775 for user galaxy starting with /home/galaxy/
$ cat static/.htaccess
AuthType Basic
AuthName Yay Bioinformatics
AuthUserFile /home/galaxy/bin/galaxy-dist/htpasswd
require valid-user
$ cat htpasswd
EDLB:x
$ ll static/.htaccess
-rw-r--r-- 1 galaxy galaxy 117 Apr 8 17:16 static/.htaccess
ll htpasswd
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19 Apr 8 17:32 htpasswd

Hello Lee,

If you still need help, posting this question over on the
galaxy-...@bx.psu.edu mailing list (but not cross-posting) with more
details about what you have tried (how this solution was not a fit, etc.)
will give you question the best exposure to the development community.

Hi, I am relatively new to Galaxy. I would like to set it up as an apache
password protected site. I have tried to do it, but I realize now that it
has its own server built-in and that it is ineffective to set up .htaccess
because it isn't reading .htaccess (or so I think).
More information: Apache works (test page loads, and I can change it),
and Galaxy works (I even made a new tool that is working). I have Ubuntu
12.
My basic, basic need is to set up a server-level password like what
.htaccess would provide. Could anyone help? Thank you.
