I am installing osCommerce on a ubuntu OS with ISPconfig. I am setting my .htaccess for the admin directory in oscommerce. In the past I have added the following to my .htaccess file in the admin folder: AuthName "StoreFront Administration Site" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /var/www/web1/.htpasswd Require valid-user When I tried to do this with my latest install the .htpasswd is missing. I did an find for and found nothing. could someone help. I must be missing something...
Could someone please help. I need to get this resolved... My .htpasswd files are missing from my install of ISPconfig on Ubuntu. Please.. .
Well, first check whether you put the .htpasswd at the right place. Maybe there's a spelling error in the .htaccess or maybe the .htpasswd file wasn't named according to the .htaccess or it was put into a wrong folder.
Please check on the shell with the command "ls -la". that the .htpasswd file is really not there. Files that begin with a .dot might be hidden in FTP clients. You can add .htpasswd files with the ISPConfig WebFTP client.
I have also problem with .htpasswd I create /var/www/web1/.htpasswd and /var/www/web1/web/.htaccess After x time, .htpasswd become empty I create this via ssh.
You create both files manually, and after some time .htpasswd is empty? Is there anything you did before this happened?
