I am trying to include some common authorisation information in several
<Directory> sections. For example:
<Directory /htdocs>
Options Indexes IncludesNOEXEC SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
AllowOverride None
AuthName Authorisation
AuthType Basic
Include /web/include/groupfile.conf
</Directory>
where /web/include/groupfile.conf contains the single line:
AuthGroupFile /web/setup/groups
This produces the error message:
"Syntax error on line 1 of /web/include/groupfile.conf: AuthGroupFile
not allowed here"
If I copy the contents of /web/include/groupfile.conf into the
<Directory> section, and comment out the Include directive, it works
fine.
