My small web server is now mostly working, but I'm having a very strange problem. I can *usually* add user accounts from the Shell using htpasswd, and they can log in successfully. Except when I can't. In *some" cases, usernames are added to the password file, and the password verifies correctly (using 'htppasswd -v ...'), but Apache still throws an error, e.g.: [Sat Apr 29 17:12:10.790251 2023] [authz_core:error] [pid 17622:tid 17769] [client 82.69.61.82:40716] AH01631: user notatest: authorization failure for "/": (NB: "authorization failure", not "authentication failure" as with a password mismatch.) Since these are all fictitious users (i.e. not local UIDs) I don't understand what's going on. Either it should always work or always fail. Suggestions welcome. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
