Hi Sayed, The Correct Directive is AuthLDAPUrl not AuthLDAPURL. The directive is case sensitive. By the way you have to load the module auth_ldap_module (httpd 2.0), in order to get the functionality. Apache httpd 2.0 - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_auth_ldap.html#authldapurl Apache httpd 2.2 - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authnz_ldap.html - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ldap.html Cheers Salih On Tue, Apr 22, 2008 at 12:45 PM, syed mehdi <smmehadi@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Thanks salih, > i added the directive > > <Directory "/user/lib/cgi-bin/mine"> > AllowOverride AuthConfig > </Directory> > in config file after line: AccessFileName .htaccess, > but now while accessing the same url i am getting the error as: > [Tue Apr 22 14:11:28 2008] [alert] [client 127.0.0.1] > /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mine/.htaccess: Invalid command 'AuthLDAPURL', perhaps > mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration > though the command is correct. > regards > syed > > > > On Tue, Apr 22, 2008 at 1:31 PM, Mohammed Salih <linusali@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > > > > > Hi Sayed, > > > > Did you check if the directory /user/lib/cgi-bin/mine is having an > > AllowOverride AuthConfig in the apache configuration. > > > > Example: > > > > <Directory "/user/lib/cgi-bin/mine"> > > AllowOverride AuthConfig > > </Directory> > > > > OR > > > > <Directory "/user/lib/cgi-bin/mine"> > > AllowOverride All > > </Directory> > > > > to allow all .htaccess-able directives. > > > > Cheers > > Salih > > > > > > > > > > On Tue, Apr 22, 2008 at 11:37 AM, syed mehdi <smmehadi@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > just wanted to know why LDAP authentication is not working for me in > given > > > case (i have apache2 installed on my ubuntu 606): > > > i have placed .htaccess with these contents in /user/lib/cgi-bin/mine: > > > AuthType Basic > > > AuthName 'LDAP Login (Please do not add domainname\\ before username)' > > > AuthLDAPURL > > > > ldap://xyz.company.com:543/ou=people,o=company.com?uid?sub?(objectClass=*) > > > > > > <Files "evaluatequery.py"> > > > require valid-user > > > </Files> > > > > > > and whenever i am trying to access url (which executes evaluatequery.py) > : > > > http://localhost/cgi-bin/mine/evaluatequery.py > > > i am not asked for ldap authentication, though the script gets executed > > > successfully. > > > > > > please help > > > > > > Thanks & Regards > > > Syed > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project. > > See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info. > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > " from the digest: users-digest-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
