With the same non-success. I had cranked up the loglevel in the hopes that something about the failure would be written to the logs but nothing is. How can I debug/fix this? Does Apache for Cygwin do any authentication at all?
yes it does (or did ;) at least for a considerable time. I don't think this is a Cygwin or Apache for Cygwin specific problem. I suggest it's more to a mis-configuration.
I would tend to agree except this config worked with Apache for Windows.
Did you try to have standard Basic HTTP Auth on a "fresh" httpd.conf that comes from the distribution itself?
Good idea. Tried it. Didn't work:
$ net stop apache The Cygwin Apache service is stopping........ The Cygwin Apache service was stopped successfully.
$ cd /etc/apache $ mv httpd.conf httpd.conf.save $ cp ../apache.new/httpd.conf httpd.conf $ cp -rp ~/www/Internal/Release/addbug /var/www/htdocs $ ll /var/www/htdocs/addbug total 15 drwxr-xr-x+ 2 adefaria Domain U 0 Sep 29 19:17 ./ drwx------+ 4 adefaria Domain U 0 Sep 29 19:33 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 adefaria Domain U 132 Sep 29 19:17 .htaccess -rw-r--r-- 1 adefaria Domain U 48 Sep 18 16:06 addbug_users -rw-r--r-- 1 adefaria Domain U 8 Sep 27 15:40 current_release -rwxr-xr-x 1 adefaria Domain U 5293 Sep 9 17:05 index.cgi* -rwxr-xr-x 1 adefaria Domain U 5233 May 19 17:10 index.cgi.save*
I had to add ExecCGI and index.cgi to httpd.conf but that's all I changed. When I went to "addbug" again it let me in there without any authentication. Nothing to report in the log files.
Perhaps we should take this offline... === Ever stop to think, and forget to start again?
