Hi All,
On p. 68 of the eagle book, the explanation of DECLINED says:
The handler has decided it doesn't want to handle the request.
Apache will act as if the subroutine were never called and either
handle the phase internally or pass the request on to another
module that has expressed its interest. Even if all registered
modules return DECLINED for a particular phase, it will still be
handled by the Apache core, which has default handlers for each
phase (even if they do nothing).
I have an authz handler at the very beginning of which I set
return DECLINED;
but Apache doesn't seem to kick in its default handler (there is
an .htaccess file in the directory concerned).
Can anybody shed light on this?
Thanks,
Jie
