Subject: PerlAuthenHandler From: "HORNER, J. (JH8)" <JH8@ornl.gov> Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2000 09:24:56 -0400 What are the rules for using the PerlAuthenHandler? I have a timeout module that works great on my Apache 1.3.12/mod_perl 1.24, and if I put the directives directly in the httpd.conf file. When I try to put the stuff in the httpd.conf file on my "Stronghold/2.4.1 Apache/1.3.3 C2NetEU/2409 Doorkeeper/2.0 (Unix) mod_perl/1.21 configured" server, the service doesn't start. Here are the entries on the first server: PerlSetEnv PERL5LIB lib/perl PerlRequire conf/startup.pl PerlFreshRestart On PerlModule Apache::Registry <Directory /data/2jnetworks/test> AuthType Basic AuthName TEST AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/conf/www_passwd AuthGroupFile /usr/local/apache/conf/www_group require group 2jnetworks PerlAuthenHandler Apache::TimeOut PerlSetVar TimeLimit 15 </Directory> Here are the entries for the second server: PerlSetEnv PERL5LIB lib/perl PerlRequire conf/startup.pl PerlFreshRestart On PerlModule Apache::Registry <Directory /data/httpd/docs/jhorner> AuthName Test AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/conf/www_passwd AuthGroupFile /usr/local/apache/conf/www_group require group test PerlAuthenHandler Apache::TimeOut PerlSetVar TimeOut 15 </Directory> When I put the PerlAuthenHandler entries into an .htaccess file, the server will start, but I get: /data/httpd/docs/jhorner/.htaccess: Invalid command 'PerlAuthenHandler', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration I have other perl handler type things in the httpd.conf file, but nothing else gives this error, any ideas? ===
