.htacess password protection folder - El Forum - 01-18-2010
[eluser]searain[/eluser]
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|captcha|css|js|php|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]This is my root .htaccess, so I tell that the folder php is not using the Rewrite for clean url, for files in the folder named as "php", it is just using regular url as it is.
Such as
http://www.mysite.com/php/test.php
It is working fine.
But then I also want to put the folder "php" under password protection
So I added the following .htaccess in folder "php"
Code:
require valid-user
Authname "Administration"
Authtype Basic
AuthUserFile /public_html/php/.htpasswdAfer I did that, I didn't get password protection on the folder "php", insead, I got page not found error when I try to access
http://www.mysite.com/php/test.php
It seems the .htaccess in root and .htaccess in php get conflicts.
Any advice to fix it?
Thanks!

try
Code:
AuthUserFile /home/pathto/.htpasswd
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Secret Place"
<LIMIT GET POST>
require valid-user
</LIMIT>Not sure if it will work, but that is what is shown at this site

This gives the answer.
All I need to do is add one more line in root .htaccess
RewriteCond $1 !^(401.shtml)
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|captcha|css|js|php|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond $1 !^(401.shtml)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]Then I can put .php under .htaccess protection.
