My .htpasswd file is in 'www' folder in wamp. My .htaccess file is also in same 'www' folder.I want to set path for .htpasswd in .htaccess file. How to set path in AuthUserFile
AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile www/.htpasswd **path incorrect
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user
You must use the full path to your .htpasswd file.
Create a .php file in the same folder, containing the following code :
<?php
echo dirname(__FILE__) . '/.htpasswd';
?>
Then access it via your browser and it should display the full path you'll need to put in your .htaccess file.
