Hi,
when entering the required user and password, the webserver asks for it
again and again!
I ve created the password file with htpasswd. The .htaccess file
contains the lines:

AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Area!"
AuthUserFile /.../passwords
Require user tbarth


The virtualhost contains

<Directory /.../htdocs>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride AuthConfig
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>

Do you have any idea, what the problem is?

Stupid me. I tailed the wrong error.log and was wondering why I dont get
any access or error messages Smile The correct error.log prints

[Wed Mar 15 13:29:01 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (13)Permission
denied: Could not open password file: /.../passwd/passwords
[Wed Mar 15 13:29:01 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] user tbarth not
found: /

Well, I ve changed the permissions. It works by now.
