I have a problem with the http://libertyships.org/join.htm and the [url=“http://libertyships.org/searchmain.htm”]http://libertyships.org/searchmain.htm pages presenting a username and password box the second time they are activated after being published to the server (Unix,Apache). Don’t mind the join.txt file being visable, will change this if I can ever get the main problem fixed.
There are no restricted permissions set or protected folders or files on the site. The last thing that has not been looked at and reset as a possible cause is the existance of two .htacess files, which some program action other than me put there.
The first resides at www.htaccess and also at /public_html. It contains:
-FrontPage-
IndexIgnore .htaccess /.?? *~ *# /HEADER /README /_vti
<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName www.libertyships.org
AuthUserFile /home/liberty/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/liberty/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp
The second and only other like file resides at www/_vti_bin and /public_html_vti_bin and reads:
-FrontPage-
Options None
<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName www.libertyships.org
AuthUserFile /home/liberty/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/liberty/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp
Would either of these two files be causing the problem to occure? It seems the allow/deny’s should not both be in the same listing, but this needs the advise of someone who knows Apache Directives.
Your consideration would be most appreciated to help solve this two month old problem and counting!
