Hi There,
I need to use Apache::AuthDBI to authenticate
users via MySQL and InterBase in a Cobalt Raq4. I'm using this method in another
linux boxes but this particular Raq4 is driving me mad.
Raq4 comes with an Apache with a pre compile
mod_perl 1.25 with all hooks enable, including PerlAuthenHandler and
PerlAuthzHandler. But no matter what I pass to PerlAuthenHandler or
PerlAuthzHandler it does not work, Apache seens to be ignoring it.
An exemple of my .htaccess file:
AuthName "Protected Dir"
AuthType Basic PerlAuthenHandler Apache::AuthDBI::authen PerlSetVar Auth_DBI_encrypted off
PerlSetVar Auth_DBI_data_source dbi:mysql:xxxxx PerlSetVar Auth_DBI_username xxxx PerlSetVar Auth_DBI_password xxxx PerlSetVar Auth_DBI_pwd_table xxxx PerlSetVar Auth_DBI_uid_field xxxx PerlSetVar Auth_DBI_pwd_field xxxx require valid-user
If I access this directory the authentication window pops-up (as usual), If
I try to logon as a database user I get this error in my "error" log:
[Thu Jul 24 03:05:10 2003] [error] access to /home/sites/home/web/test
failed for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, reason: AuthPamExternal [/usr/lib/authenticate]:
Failed (1) for user xxxxx
Now, the real odd thing is that if I try to access this diretory as a
regular local system user, it authenticates! The Apache shipped with Raq4 uses
the mod_auth_pam_external but I don't know if this have something do with this
problem, as the mod_auth works fine.
The Apache or mod_perl seens to be ignoring the PerlAuthenHandler
directive ...
If I use:
PerlAuthenHandler Apache::AuthDBI::authen
It does not work
if I use:
PerlAuthenHandler BOGUS::BOGUS::BOGUS
It, of course, does not work, but I don't get any error about it my log
files! And also, I still can logon as a regular local user.
Any ideas/thoughts ?!? Any help would be apprecitate ...
Thank you,
Antonio
