We have exactly the same problem here using apache 2.4.7 on Ubuntu 14.04. The following configuration does not work i.e. i could not access the restricted ressource:
AuthType Basic AuthName "Restricted Files" AuthBasicProvider file AuthUserFile /path/to/file/.htpasswd require valid-user If I use "require user jfoe" I can access the ressource: AuthType Basic AuthName "Restricted Files" AuthBasicProvider file AuthUserFile /path/to/file/.htpasswd require user jdoe The same is true if I use AuthBasicProvider ldap instead of file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to apache2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1358284 Title: apache 2.4.7 does not respect valid-user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/1358284/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
