Maybe I'll bug the author of the module now.

I just had a quick look at AuthCookieDBI, which subclasses AuthCookie.
In AuthCookie->authenticate(), there is indeed a check for sub-requests, returning always OK in that case. In other words, I don't think that Apache subrequests, per se, are the cause of the problem.
But maybe it is the fact that you are using this in a .htaccess file.
Try setting
PerlSetVar AuthCookieDebug 3
in your .htaccess file.
Then try again, and look at the server error log.


Hi André, thanks for your help! I set the debugging flag and here's what came out:

Everything looks fine, except this "Converting POST -> GET" part. I don't know if it is, but I know that when the AUTH is working properly that doesn't occur.

Anyway, I just wanted to follow up with you and to let you know that you don't need to bang your head trying to solve this as I have solved it with a redirect of / to /index.pl and then protecting all .pl files within a <Files ~ "\.(pl)$"> enclosure.

Thanks for your help again...!

Tosh
