Dear all, I running on an HP-UX 11.11 712 box, and I have compiled apache 2.2.4 with GCC. I have took mod_dbd.c from truck due to several bugs in the version provided w/ 2.2.4. I'm using the following configuration (it's only a test up to now): <Directory /home/*/public_html> AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit Indexes Options MultiViews Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec Includes AuthType Basic AuthName "Test" AuthBasicProvider dbd Require valid-user AuthDBDUserPWQuery "select passwd from test.comptes where id = %s" </Directory> My database is the PostgreSQL 8.2.4, and test.comptes tables as created as bellow : CREATE TABLE test.comptes ( id TEXT PRIMARY KEY, passwd TEXT NOT NULL, max bigint, admin boolean, superviseur boolean, status TEXT, contact TEXT ); INSERT INTO test.comptes VALUES ('Test', '1$Codv.WMAH7w', 1024, 'f', 'f', 1, 'nan@xxxxxxxxxxx'); My problem is I have to enter 3 or 4 times my credential each time apache is restarted, before being accepted. (the user and password is saved in Firefox password repository so I'm sure it's always the same credential). Each time, my error.log contains : [Mon Jun 25 16:48:37 2007] [notice] Apache/2.2.4 (Unix) DAV/2 PHP/5.2.3 configured -- resuming normal operations [Mon Jun 25 16:49:01 2007] [error] [client 164.129.228.100] user Test: authentic ation failure for "/~laurent/": Password Mismatch [Mon Jun 25 16:49:09 2007] [error] [client 164.129.228.100] user Test: authentic ation failure for "/~laurent/": Password Mismatch I did following tests : - When I restart only apache (w/o restarting my browser), credentials are again rejected 4 or 5 times - I restart only my browser, my credential is requested once (it makes sens as the browser doesn't have them in memory anymore). Based on that, it seems the problem is located inside the authentication engine. And as it's perfectly working when authenticating against flat file (.htpasswd), we can said it's somewhere in the authentication against database chain. Any tips or helps. best regards, Laurent The misspelling master is on the Web. _________ 100 % Dictionnary Free ! / /( / Dico / / Pleins d'autres fautes sur /________/ / (#######( / http://destroyedlolo.homeunix.org Quoi, des fautes d'orthographe!
