we've tried using three different tools to create an encrypted passwd for the htpasswd file and the server wont read it. could it be the directive? or bad encrypt tools?

according to php document root it is the path. htpasswd is not under root. it is under a folder in the alias folder. the question is when the htaccess AuthUserFile ooks for the htpasswd file is it looking in at the "alais" or the D:/ directory?

It is looking for it here:

xampp/htdocs/xxxx/.htpasswd

Since this is a relative path, it's probably looking for this directory relative to ServerRoot. To avoid conflict, I suggest specifying a complete path.

HTH,

AuthUserFile xampp/htdocs/xxxx/.htpasswd

Is that really a relative path?  Also, your passwords should not be
under your DocumentRoot or any Aliases.
