Jack_mcs Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 I don't understand the problem. You add the file and it blocks you. You then need to enter in the correct username/password. If you don't want to do that, then delete the file. You can't have it both ways.

Jack_mcs Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 Oh, then either you are missing the .htpasswd file or the path to it is incorrect. The one you are using, www.rc-store.net/catalog/admin/, looks wrong. Go to admin->tools->backup. The path is displayed there. Is it the same as yours?

nailin Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Then the path to the htpasswd file is /customers/rc-store.net/rc-store.net/httpd.www/catalog/admin/.htpasswd , assuming that is whre it is. Jack Hi Jack, I face the same problem too.. My backup says... Backup Directory: /home2/sub007/sc11011/store/admin/backups/ So, my .htpassword should be: /home2/sub007/sc11011/store/admin/.htpasswd Is that right?? But I cant login to my own user account still... Help!! Regards NaiLin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_mcs Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 That's correct if the .htpasswd file is in that location. Most hosts store them above the public_html directory for added security.

nailin Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Hi Jack, Some further questions.. Do i need to protect all my other PHP files???? Eg.. column_right.php and etc.. If i am not wrong, anyone with access to the php files can edit my website. Or it is adequate with the recommended protection from the OsCommerce's documentation??? Which is the 2 Configure.php files, admin and .htpasswd... Regards NaiLin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
