Re: .htaccess for script aliased directories

["Danie Qian" <daniel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just setup awstats a few weeks ago and this setting works for me in the <VirtualHost>:

 

        Alias /awstatsclasses "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/classes/"
        Alias /awstatscss "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/css/"
        Alias /icon "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/icon/"
        ScriptAlias /awstats/ "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/"
        #
        # This is to permit URL access to scripts/files in AWStats directory.
        #
        <Directory "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot">
        Options None
        AllowOverride None
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
        </Directory>

 

        <Directory "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin">
        AuthUserFile "/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/mypasswordfile"
        AuthName "Awstats"
        AuthType Basic
        <Limit GET POST>
                require valid-user
        </Limit>
        Options None
        AllowOverride AuthConfig
        Order deny,allow
        deny from all
        allow from 216.130.212
        allow from 216.130.209
        allow from 216.130.213
        Satisfy any
        </Directory>

Darn.  I tried that path as well and it did not work either.  I know that 
the 2 are correct paths because I could not see the stats unless it they were.
 
Also I know that the conf file I'm editing is being read, because I just
updated it yesterday, and I could not see my stats until I added that
script alias line in th evirtual domain tag.
 
Any other idea what could be the problem?
