#20461 [Fbk->Opn]: Unable to access $PHP_AUTH_USER or $PHP_AUTH_PW
ID: 20461
User updated by: shawn@boldar.com
Reported By: shawn@boldar.com
-Status: Feedback
+Status: Open
Bug Type: Apache related
Operating System: Linux 2.4.8
PHP Version: 4CVS-2002-11-17
New Comment:
not using any external auth... simply using regular http authentication
through apache... certain directories on the webserver are protected,
and so it pops up the box asking the user for username/password.. and
then rather then ask them AGAIN for a login for some of my web-based
apps, i simply pass the http auth info (via $PHP_AUTH_USER and
$PHP_AUTH_PW) along to these apps. the only problem is, those 2
variables don't seem to exist anymore for me. nothing has changed in
my configuration except for the fact that i'm now using the cvs version
of php as opposed to 4.2.3 (if you read in my original bug report it
explains why).

Are you using some external auth mechanism?

register_globals is on.. i know the default changed, but it's still
using the same php.ini file i've had for a while now. i double-checked
phpinfo() to be sure.

Is the php directive register_globals on or off? The default changed
in PHP 4.2.0 from on to off, phpinfo() will tell you your true setting.

I recently decided to upgrade to GD 2.0 but was having problems getting
it to compile with 4.2.3 or any of the older versions of PHP, which is
odd because I've had it work before. Anyways, as a last resort, I
decided to download one of the stable CVS snapshots and, lo and behold,
it worked fine.
The only problem I'm having now is that I can't seem to access
$PHP_AUTH_USER or $PHP_AUTH_PW, and I have a few applications on my
site that depend on being able to access these variables. The
variables appear to be empty when I reference them. I am using the
exact same configure line when I compiled the CVS version of PHP as I
used when I tried the other versions...
./configure --with-apxs --with-mysql --enable-ftp --with-session
--with-zlib-dir=/usr/local --with-gd=/usr/local
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local --with-png-dir=/u
sr/local --with-freetype-dir=/usr/local --with-mcal=/usr/local
--with-mhash=/usr/local
I have GD 2.0 installed under /usr/local, as indicated by the configure
line above. If you need any additional information, please contact me.
Thanks in advance for your help.
