The htpasswd.exe utility in Apache_2.0.39-Mod_SSL-OpenSSL-0.9.6d-Win32.zip
aborts with an error message when you try to add or update a password. It
responds with "The process cannot access the file because it is being used
by another process". I thought perhaps that Apache had not closed the
password file when it was started, so I stopped the tasks related to Apache
and tried it again. Same result. I'm running the server on a PC with
Windows XP Professional OS.



I downloaded and unzipped htpasswd.exe from the
Apache_2.0.37-dev_mod_ssl_2.0.37_dev_OpenSSL-0.9.6c-WIN32.zi p file and it
works like it used to in earlier versions.



Any ideas?

The htpasswd.exe utility on Windows has known bugs that have been fixed for
2.0.40 You can use previous versions like the one you mention, they are ok.
