Problem in htaccess password protection
Posted: Tue Sep 29, 2009 12:17 pm
I want to apply htaccess password protection to one of my my site http://manjotone.freehostia.com .
When I go to above url it demands a username/password. Even if I fill correct username/password (test/test) it still does not show the site and the login box appears each time whether I fill correct or wrong username/password. How can I resolve this issue?
The content of htaccess file is
AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/www/manjotone.freehostia.com/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user
And the content of htpasswd file is
test:VKDgrEqD7TJBM
I simply upload these files through FTP where my site exists .please suggest me what should I do to overcome this issue.
