in reply to Re^2: About .htaccess
in thread About .htaccess
If I'm not mistaken, security-wise it is a bad idea to put this file in the cgi-bin folder. It should even be put outside your htdocs-folder.
Are you sure that your configuration file is OK and that other cgi-bin scipts run as expected?
Update:If you use relative paths, they are relative to the server-root! This is what the docs for Apache say in that respect:
The AuthUserFile directive sets the name
of a textual file containing the list of users and passwords for
user authentication. File-path is the path to the user
file. If it is not absolute (i.e., if it doesn't begin
with a slash), it is treated as relative to the ServerRoot.AuthUserFile Directive
Description: Sets the name of a text file containing the list of users and
passwords for authentication Syntax: AuthUserFile file-path Context: directory, .htaccess Override: AuthConfig Status: Base Module: mod_auth
