HI, I've been trying to configure mod_authn_dbd ( my apache version is 2.2.3 ) to use sqlite3 for user authentication, two days passed but things still didn't work well :-( So here is what I did: 1. First I created a database file and inserted some user information for test using sqlite3. # sqlite3 userpasswd.db sqlite3> create table authn (user_name char(20) not null primary key, user_passwd char(20) not null); sqlite3> insert into authn values ('user', 'passwd'); # not encrypted, I don't know whether it should be encrypted 2. Then add the following configuration to httpd.conf. It's almost the same with the sample in the document except the arguments for DBDriver and DBDParams. The required modules are all loaded. DBDriver sqlite3 DBDParams "/path/to/userpasswd.db" # the document says the string will be passed to sqlite3_open, but I didn't know what should actually write here. #Parameters for Connection Pool Management DBDMin 1 DBDKeep 2 DBDMax 10 DBDExptime 60 #Authentication Section <Directory /var/httpd/html/private/> #mod_auth configuration for authn_dbd AuthType Basic AuthBasicProvider dbd AuthName "private content" #authz configuration Require valid-user #SQL query to verify a user #(note: DBD drivers recognise both stdio-like %s and native syntax) AuthDBDUserPWQuery "select user_passwd from authn where user_name=%s" </Directory> After that, I restarted apache, and tried to visit pages in the private directory. There does appears an authentication dialog asking for user name and password. However, after entered the same user name and password in the database file, I got the message "Error 500". Then I looked up in the error log and see this "No DBD Authn configured!" I've justed started learn to use apache and don't know what does this mean. I've googled for information about mod_authn_dbd and sqlite3 but didn't find something useful. Has anyone succeed to configured this? Any suggession or information will be great help to me! -- Best regards, Chen Yufei --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
