I've installed the latest Addon in Thunderbird but am unable to add the

REST URL: http://dl.burnit.co.uk/rest.php
Username: My username (which is an admin account)

When I click "Set up Account", Thunderbird immediately says "An error
occurred while setting up the account!" and does not prompt for a password.

Is there anywhere I can see a log of more information to get a clue what
is going wrong here?
There are a few things to check:

Thanks for your reply Yuri. I had read this already, but on re-reading I found the reason why it wasn't working: I'm using mod_fcgi and this doesn't pass Basic Auth properly.

I added an .htaccess file with the following:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]
</IfModule>

Now it's working fine :)

It might be good idea to include this in the distribution. As far as I can see it wouldn't hurt, regardless of whether fcgi was used.

Seb
