I have a question for experienced Apache::AuthCookie users. The module's test suite protects directories below the docroot and sets the action of the login form to /LOGIN, an unprotected location. This setup does not work for me as I need to protect the entire docroot. Since LOGIN itself is protected, the login method is never called and I never progress past the login screen.


Could someone suggest a configuration that would permit LOGIN to invoke Apache::AuthCookie->login correctly but still protect the entire docroot?


Are you currently using <Location> or <Directory> tags to configure protection for the main body
of your content?

I'm having the same problem.


I'm using this as the <Location> and <Files> directives as follows:

<Location />
  AuthType TestCookie::AuthCookieHandler
  AuthName TestCookie
  PerlAuthenHandler TestCookie::AuthCookieHandler->authenticate
  PerlAuthzHandler TestCookie::AuthCookieHandler->authorize
  Require user programer
  Options +ExecCGI
  allow from all
</Location>

<Location /LOGIN>
  AuthType  TestCookie::AuthCookieHandler
  AuthName TestCookie
  SetHandler perl-script
  PerlHandler TestCookie::AuthCookieHandler->login
</Location>

and all of this is within a <VirtualHost> container.

( I never saw a response to the list, and I'm abandoning my use of Apache::AuthCookieDBI because I can't get it configured correctly. I did post to the list for assistance, but no responses ... )
