I had successfully installed and tested Apache with the following Virtualhost:
| Code: | <IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost raspberrypi:443>
ServerAdmin ***
DocumentRoot /var/www
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/priv/>
AllowOverride AuthConfig
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/password
Require user mysurname
</Directory>
.... |
Then I decided to change "mysurname" with "noatri" in the VirtualHost:
| Code: | | Require user noatri |
Of course I have also recreated the password file and restarted Apache.
After that, if I try to connect, connection fails and in error.log I get:
access to /priv/ failed, reason: user 'noatri' does not meet 'require'ments for user/valid-user to be allowed access
Please note that I'm not mistyping the password. In that case I would get:
user noatri: authentication failure for "/priv/": Password Mismatch
It seems that the password is recognized, but some not better defined 'require'ments are not met.
I have tried to clean cookies/cache, to use a different browser, and to reboot the server, with no avail.
I have tried repeatedly to configure Apache to use the old username/password pair and the new one.
Only the old one works.
Any idea?
I'm using:
Apache/2.2.22 (Debian) mod_ssl/2.2.22 OpenSSL/1.0.1e
on Raspberry Debian |
