Hello Everyone,
I am trying to password protect a directory on my site. I placed an .htaccess file in the directory with:
AuthType Basic
AuthName “XXXXXXX”
AuthUserFile /xxxxxx/.htpasswd
require valid-user
I then went to the Password Generator at http://www.euronet.nl/~arnow/htpasswd/ to get a encrypted password which I placed in an .htpasswd file as such:
xxxxx:52s3jy3nf4SLw
When I try to access the protected page putting in my username and password, it returns:
error 401: Unauthorized
The request requires user authentication. The response MUST include a WWW-Authenticate header field (section 14.46) containing a challenge applicable to the requested resource.
I have looked at a few articles concerning this error, but still don’t understand. Hope someone can help.
Thanks!
