Hi Sayed,

Did you check if the directory /user/lib/cgi-bin/mine is having an
AllowOverride AuthConfig in the apache configuration.

Example:


AllowOverride AuthConfig


OR


AllowOverride All


to allow all .htaccess-able directives.

Cheers
Salih

Thanks salih,
i added the directive

AllowOverride AuthConfig

in config file after line: AccessFileName .htaccess,
but now while accessing the same url i am getting the error as:
[Tue Apr 22 14:11:28 2008] [alert] [client 127.0.0.1]
/usr/lib/cgi-bin/mine/.htaccess: Invalid command 'AuthLDAPURL', perhaps
mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
though the command is correct.

Hi Sayed,

The Correct Directive is AuthLDAPUrl not AuthLDAPURL. The directive is
case sensitive. By the way you have to load the module
auth_ldap_module (httpd 2.0), in order to get the functionality.

Apache httpd 2.0 -
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_auth_ldap.html#auth ldapurl
Apache httpd 2.2 - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authnz_ldap.html
- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ldap.html
Cheers
Salih
