Dear Apache Users,
I have been looking at a problem for so many hours now that I think it has made
me blind.
The below configuration is intended to restrict access to /admin-cgi/ to members of the
group "admin", which is defined in a plain text file, whilst users and
passwords are in a DBM file.
[...]
AuthGroupFile /Users/leegoddard/src/www/northfoto2/auth/northfoto_groups.db
The problem seems to be solved, but the solution does not seem valid.
There appears to have been a conflict between these two groups of
directives:
ScriptAlias /adminjr-cgi/
"/Users/leegoddard/src/www/northfoto2/adminjr-cgi/"
<Directory "/Users/leegoddard/src/www/northfoto2/adminjr-cgi/">
... Require group admin ...
</Directory>
Conflicted with:
<LocationMatch "/admin/*">
At least, when I changed the latter to the below, all behaved as expected:
<LocationMatch "/admin/index.shtml">
... Require group adminjr ...
</Location>
Have I misunderstood the PCRE engine, or is this a bug...?
Thanks
Lee
