Bug#339383: libapache-mod-auth-mysql: Errors break other authentication methods
Gene Black wrote: Package: libapache-mod-auth-mysql Version: 4.3.9-2 Severity: important When the module encounters an error authenticating (such as an invalid database config, etc.) instead of failing silently and handing control to the other exisiting authentication modules, it breaks. In my situation, I want to use the module to authenticate a virtual host on the server, but not the entire server. Naturally the virtual host in question has a valid config, but the remaining virtual hosts do not. Some utilize other authentication methods for their sites. These methods are now broke because libapache-mod-auth-mysql attempts first and breaks due to the lack of a valid database config. This description does not exactly make a lot sense. You're using mod_auth_mysql in a Directory or Location block usually. Could you provide enough configuration snippets to rebuild your setup for verification and debugging?
