The WhateverDBI_SecretKeyFile seems to be everyone's problem with this module. I've searched around, read most people's fixes, but none of them work for me. Here's my error_log snippet:
[Tue Mar 23 12:04:58 2004] [error] access to /LOGIN failed, reason: Apache::AuthCookieDBI: didn't have the secret key for auth realm JBG
[Tue Mar 23 12:04:58 2004] [error] access to /logintest failed, reason: Apache::AuthCookieDBI: didn't the secret key from for auth realm JBG
The host in question is a VirtualHost. My first configuration attempt, which matches one of the more common solutions ( putting the PerlSetVar directive before the module load ) doesn't do the trick:
You *must* put *all* the PerlSetVar configuration for AuthCookie* in the *main* apache
configuration, not in a virtual host section or similar.
This is because it is read in a BEGIN block, and there is no current request and hence no
appropriate virtual host at that stage.
It's in the docs, IIRC.
Cheers,
Nick
