I'm having some trouble implementing Basic
authorisation on my Apache Server. The thing is, I downloaded
the Win32 binary dist. of Apache. Now i want to
implement auth. on one of the user folders. I have
everything in place, but apache simply refuses to accept the
password. I created a dummy account with no password (using
htpasswd) and it acknowledges it. What's the problem and
how do i fix it?

Hi! all, I want to know how to setup Apache run Java servlets. I would

Hi,<br><br>Is there is a way to make url's case

not have this option, but<br>Yahoo does:

where do you perchase this?

Similar question (please forgive the "me, too"
syndrome).<br><br>Our company policy is that by June, all servers must
be able to use digital certificates to verify
access. Our site is using a crusty old NetSpace
Communications 2.0 server, so it's gotta go, and I was seriously
considering replacing it with Apache.<br><br>There appears to
be a mod_perl module for certificate authentication
(I even have a name, I think -- AuthzSSL), but for
the life of us, no one in our group has been able to
actually find it.<br><br>Could someone point me that way?

It appears I'd have to get Covalent's Raven, or Stronghold, or some other vendor
product.<br><br>I guess I'll just stick with the free NetScape 3.6.2 the company
provides. =o)

Anyone know if you can set up multiple SSL cerificates on Apache (virtual
hosts)?

Is there a way to have apache resolve the host
name without going thru DNS. <br><br>What I mean is
this: I would like our DNS admin to setup a wildcard
domain name entry in DNS like mydomain.com poing to Ip
207.212.63.xx. So when someone request a url:
<a href=http://sales.mydomain.com, target=new>http://sales.mydomain.com,</a> I
want apache to automatically to point to
<br>/usr/www/sales even though there is no DNS entry for the
subdomain sales.mydomain.com.<br><br>I hear there was a way
to do this using the Dynamically configured mass
virtual hosting option in Apache.<br><br>Any info will be
greatly appreciated.<br><br>thanks,<br><br>Justin

Anyone done anything with JetSpeed yet? <br><br>Any impressions?

I don't know, but why don't you set up bind?

If this is something where you are giving the new
user a shell account, anything you put into the
/etc/skel directory is automatically copied to their
newly-made home directories. This includes folders, files,
scripts, etc. Therefore if you have the httpd.conf set up
so that the user directory is 'public-html', then
you go into the /etc/skel (as root) and create the
'public-html' folder and anything else that you want each user
to have.

I am having a problem with setting a directory to
use basic auth in a VirtualDomain. It works fine for
the default domain, and the virt is setup as
so:<br><br><VirtualHost 156.99.160.161><br> ServerAdmin
koivi@...<br> DocumentRoot /home/qtr/qtrmoon<br> ServerName
koivi.penguinpowered.com<br> ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/home/qtr/cgi-bin/"<br>
Options Includes ExecCGI<br> ErrorLog
logs/qtr-error_log<br> CustomLog logs/qtr-access_log
common<br></VirtualHost><br><br>I've tried adding a "AccessFileName
.htaccess"
directive to the VirtualHost definition, but that didn't
work either. I would bet that I am missing a
configuration option somewhere. My .htaccess files look like
the following:<br><br>AuthUserFile
/home/httpd/webpasswds<br>AuthGroupFile /dev/null<br>AuthName "Password
Protected
Areas"<br>AuthType Basic<br><Limit GET POST><br> Require valid
user<br></Limit><br><br>I had even changed the limit to "Require user
username" where username was a valid user defined in the
webpasswds file.

Does anyone know if there is a problem running Apache under windows 2000?  I
tried to start the service and got a Error 1067 does that mean anything to
anyone

Actually from what I heard over at the state
offices (MN), they found that a similar error occurs in
Win2000 with their Apache install. They spent about a
month trying to figure it out, but never resolved the
problem. They finally came to their senses and installed
it on a UNIX server.<br><br>I would venture to guess
that the error has something to do with the slight
differences in the 2000 kernel with the NT 4 kernel and not
the Apache software. Try checking the M$ site for
reports on this. Afterall, it could be just one of the
32,000 bugs not patched. ;)

Thanks for the infor on Win2k. I installed NT
instead of 2000. I had everything working well yesterday
but then on one of the reboots of the machine the
service will not start now and when trying to start it
manualy I get the message:Count not start the Apache
service on \\KICK. Error 1067: The process terminated
unexpectedly. Does anyone know what could cause this
error?<br><br>Thank you

I have apache 1.3.9 for windows 95/98 running on
my machine. I am unable to execute cgi scripts
(currently perl) on my machine. I have modified the
httpd.conf file as suggested by a book. Whenever I try to
run the script by entering the address into the URL
or by the POST method of a html document, I see the
message "Host contacted. Waiting for reply...". and
nothing seems to happen. There are no entries in the
access or the error logs. Can anyone let me know if
apache can execute scripts in the windows 95/98
environment and if so do I need any more setup on my side?
Any help would be appreciated.<br><br>Thanks

I haven't set up apache in a windows environment,
but did you happen to install perl before trying to
execute scripts? I would think that you'd need the
interpreter in order for the system to know what to do with
the "text" files.

Yes. The perl interpreter is in
c:\perl\perl-5.000 directory. I also changed the httpd.conf file to
include "Options ExecCGI" and "Addhandler .cgi .pl". The
perl script is a very simple script which just has a
print statement. I also included the shabang statement
(#! c:\perl\perl-5.000\perl.exe) at the 1st line in
the script. I can execute the script from the command
line. When I type in the URL in the browser, I see a
message "host contacted.. Waiting for reply..." and
nothing happens. While shutting down windows, I get a
message which states that Perl is still running and I
have to manually end that task. I have no clue how to
proceed.<br><br>Thanks for the reply....

I am going to assume you are working with a VirtualDomain. Try "Options Include
ExecCGI" instead, and you might want to add a<br>ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/
"C:\wherever\perl\scripts\are"

Hi,<br><br>I need to know how to make Apache
handle extra-path-info in URLs. By this I mean URLs
which have extra info after a "/" after the
filename,<br><br>e.g.<br><a href=http://www.mysite.com/index.jsp/mypath/stuff
target=new>http://www.mysite.com/index.jsp/mypath/stuff</a><br><br>I can't get

someone help me out?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Jason

Is this club dead, or are there actually people
reading it? I see every once in a while a new member
joins. I was hoping that this club would be a bit more
active so I could learn a little more about Apache.

Hello peoples..<br> Quicky questions. Running
apache 1.3.12 on solaris 2.5.1, Anyone know which
setting to modify, and to what to allow directory
listings? IE: Say you have a directory with no index.html,
and you want the user files to be shown. Is it a
setting in the httpd.conf? If so, which?
Thanks!<br><br>-C. (Chris)

I get the following error when I try and compile

<br><br>Am I doing something wrong, I needed to ammend the
configure script to pick up c89 and not cc (which it does
by default), maybe that is what has caused the
problem. If anyone could help it would be greatly
appreciated.

Is there some reason you specifically need
c89?<br>You could probably have use CC as easily, if it's
installed. By the log entries you send, it looks like c89 is
using cc anyway....<br><br>What OS are you using, and
is switching to Linux an option?<br><br>If you can't
get c89 to work (though it should), you might try
GNU's gcc. It's free, and you can probably even get a
binary port. (look at GNU.org)<br><br>Good luck.

cc on this machine is not ANSI C complient so the
./config complained, whereas c89 is OK. <br><br>This is
for work and the OS is supported by the UNIX group,
who wont give me a root password, thats why I did not
try installing gcc.<br><br>thanks for helping
