ID: 40128 User updated by: gk at gknw dot de Reported By: gk at gknw dot de Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: all PHP Version: 5.2.0 New Comment: Just found that the previous patches were slightly incomplete because the Apache headers for the prototypes were missing; have fixed that now, here are the new new patches: apache2filter: http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/ap2filter_php_functions.c.diff apache2handler: http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/ap2handler_php_functions.c.diff Have now also successfully tested this on Win32 with the apache2handler module. Here's a new working sample for testing: http://www.mailkastl.at/tstphp/tap_htpasswd.php Download of the sample: http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/tap_htpasswd.php Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-14 16:47:22] gk at gknw dot de Description: ------------ Its often needed to generate an Apache password for authentication. At least on NetWare and Win32 its a nightmare to execute the htpasswd bin from Apache; and even on Linux it might not be possible due to safemode restrictions. Therefore I've created a patch for the Apache2 filter and handler module: filter: http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/apache2filter_php_functions.c.diff handler: http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/apache2handler_php_functions.c.diff-2 I have successfully tested this patch on NetWare platform; and it should work on all other platforms too. Here's a test script to verify the new function: http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/tap_htpasswd.php would be great if this could make it into next release. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40128&edit=1
