The answer to my problem was here: http://ammonlauritzen.com/blog/2006/11/20/no-groups-file/The author of this site mentions that some of the behaviors previously performed by mod_auth in Apache 1.3 are split into separate modules in Apache 2. In addition to the modules loaded by default on Leopard Server, I loaded
mod_authz_user mod_auth_basic mod_authz_groupfile Chris -- Chris Africa Web Project Manager Department of Mechanical Engineering University of Michigan 734-764-8482 Fridays: 734-730-6221 AIM/iChat/Skype ID: baiewola On Apr 16, 2008, at 1:02 PM, Chris Africa wrote:
Hi!I'm running Apache 2 with Cosign 2.1.0rc1 on MOSX Server 10.5.2. I'm trying to require Cosign login on a subfolder of my document root, but Apache appears not to recognize my groups file.Here's the directive in my :443 virtual host. <Directory "/pathtofolder/docroot/myfoldername"> CosignProtected On AuthType Cosign AllowOverride AuthConfig AuthGroupFile /pathtofolder/notdocroot/okay_groups Require group specialpeople </Directory> okay_groups is a single line: specialpeople: user1 user2 user3 user4 And here's the error:[crit] configuration error: couldn't check access. No groups file?: /myfoldername/index.phpI'm successfully using the above setup on a server running Apache 1.3 / MOSX Server 10.4.11 with mod_auth. The Apache 2 core/base includes AuthType, AllowOverride, AuthGroupFile and Require, so I've been presuming that I don't need to load any additional modules. However, after reading about some trouble experienced by another admin, I did try -- with no success -- loading mod_authz_user and mod_auth_basic, which were not loaded by default.Can someone point me in the right direction? Apple's "Web Technologies Administration" document was no help, and Googling for the error didn't return anything directly relevant.Thank you for your time! -- Chris Africa Web Project Manager Department of Mechanical Engineering University of Michigan 734-764-8482 Fridays: 734-730-6221 AIM/iChat/Skype ID: baiewola ---------------------------------------------------------------------The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info.
