Re: [phpesp-general] PHP_AUTH_USER failing?

[Brian H. <bri...@ex...>]

WOW! Thanks for the quick response. The errorlog entry looks like this:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
[Thu Mar 21 09:04:26 2002] [error] [client 63.253.208.58] malformed header from script. Bad header=HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized: /www/x/xuser/htdocs/phpESP.php<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
(I renamed the /phpESP/admin/index.php to phpESP.php.)
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Then I found this quote in the PHP Manual, Chapter 17
<br />
"The HTTP Authentication hooks in PHP are only available when it is running as an Apache module and is hence not available in the CGI version."
<br />
<br /><br />
<br />
Unfortunately, this applies to me. Is it possible to use phpESP without these hooks? I realize this limits my control, but could I use .htaccess to restrict access to the admin files?
<br />
<br /><br />
<br />
You may also want to put this into the README as part of the PREREQUISITES: section.

Re: [phpesp-general] PHP_AUTH_USER failing?

[James E. F. <jf...@ac...>]

Try setting:
	'auth_design' => FALSE,
in your phpESP.ini. While you are at it you will probably
have to set:
	'auth_response' => FALSE,
too. Please let me know if you encoounter anything broken
with these off -- I haven't tested everything recently with
them off.
