[apache24-2.4.34]
For some reason I can't get .htaccess to work.
Can you tell me what I am doing wrong here? Let me share some settings:

# General setting (1)
<Directory />
AllowOverride none
Require all denied
</Directory>
# Specific setting for my website (2)
<Directory /usr/home/user/mywebsite>
AllowOverride all
Require all granted
</Directory>
I created a password for a valid user of who's credentials are saved in
the AuthUserFile below
The content of the .htaccess file @ (3)
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Password Protected"
AuthBasicProvider file
AuthUserFile /usr/home/user/.htpasswd
AuthName secure
<RequireAll>
Require valid-user
</RequireAll>
</Files>
What I only can think of is that the .htaccess file (3) or the .htpasswd
file does not have the correct owner and/or permissions.
Which user and group should the .htaccess belong to? I now set it to
user:www
File security is set to 640
The .htpasswd file is set to user:user
Even when I hash out (1) and restart Apache 2.4, I still don't get the
authorisation screen to provide a password, which I think means that
.htaccess is not interpreted.
Thanks for your help,
Jos
