Make sure you have to put in the full path here:

c:/full/path/to/.htpasswd

For example, if stored .htpasswd file in c:/wamp/www, then this code should be c:/wamp/www/.htpasswd

heres my .htaccess file

AuthName "JZM Wamp Server"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile c:\wamp\www\ht.passwd
Require valid-user

still getting 500

It's wrong, you must use forward flash, not backward flash

A question for this htaccess, is it possible to only get this part working for the index.php file and not for other dir in the www folder? I tried this and put both files in the www folder and its working for the index but I don't won't this to have any affect on my other folders in the www dir.

Any suggestion to solve this?

EDIT: What I understand when I have read more its not possible to add in just for the index as all other dir also will be protected. I think I can solve this to create a login via php and rename the index to other name.

Regards/Per

Or you can setup Virtual Hosts and use different name instead localhost and put your www in the last VH, so when users access your site by ip, they will go to the first vh or not found if trying localhost

Case solved with a php login and logout script + rename the index file

Pusuant to this,

I have a correct .htaccess, the path to my .htpasswd is correct, and i have valid user:pass combo, as generated at [tools.dynamicdrive.com] using the .htpasswd password generator

However I keep getting user:password mismatch showing in the error log, so I bounced this to my proper website, and it works fine, so there is something wrong with the wampserver interpretation of .htpasswd?

Um ok just had a thought, there would appear to be a problem as wampserver only takes passwords not encrypted like:

baznet:cake
bcarlyon:u5a2YqULmUX/M

baznet works, bcarlyon does not.....

I might have missed something in the httpd.conf but I doubt it, why does wamp only read in the clear passwords and not encrpted ones?

That encryption is for *nix, use MD5 for windows

the problem being baznet cake combo works.
no md5 needed.....

He he.... he he... ;-)
I knew that standard user and pass will always work on Windows, but if you want to use encryption in Windows, use MD5. I hope I make it clear this time ;-)

Hello,

Anyone know the .htaccess configuration to prevent entry, but not password protect. Every example I can find has to do with password protecting, but I want to create an area that will not allow people to access it with something like [www.mysite.com].

take care,
lee

To prevent access to a directory place a .htaccess in the directory you want to prevent access to and add the following commands

Order allow,deny
deny from all

NOTE: This will also prevent access to all files/folders within the directory too.
