That looks like mod_auth_basic getting in before it. And you really shouldn't tr and run any SQL-based authentication from .htaccess. mod_authn_dbd won't let you (it would be a security risk to let .htaccess users specify their own SQL query to be executed by the server), and using .htaccess is not compatible with efficient usage of SQL. > So, any ideas to fix the above issues or get some other way to get basic > auth to work on 2.2? You'd need to me more specific about what doesn't work for you. -- Nick Kew --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
