I have mod_auth_mysql compiled into my Apache and working fine for simple authorization.
My question is using mod_auth_mysql along with Apache's built-in basic authorization.
What I want to happen is when a protected directory is requested, it first authorizes
with MySQL. If it succeeds, it lets them in. If it fails, I want it to then authorize
with the specified .htpasswd and .htgroup files. But I can't get this latter case
working even with the auhtoritative directive turned off. Any help would be appreciated.
Below is my .htaccess file.
AuthName "Secure Access"
AuthType Basic
Auth_MySQL_DB db
Auth_MySQL_Password_Table auth_table
Auth_MySQL_Group_Table auth_table
Auth_MySQL_Username_Field username
Auth_MySQL_Password_Field password
Auth_MySQL_Group_Field groups
Auth_MySQL_Encryption_Types Plaintext
Auth_MySQL_Authoritative Off
require group valid-group
AuthUserFile /path/to/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /path/to/.htgroup
require user valid-user
