Hello all, I got a very strange behavior of getAuthData() method of Auth class. I tried to follow the example given here: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.authentication.auth-http.auth-http.exa mple2.php but any kind of calls like $objAuth->getAuthData() or $objAuth->getAuthData('id') etc. returned no result (null value or empty array). Then I dug a little in the sources and found that there is an error in the example code, the line 'dbFields'=>"*", // enabling fetch for other db columns have to be 'db_fields' => '*' // enabling fetch for other db columns I changed this line but this didn't help me at all. After some time spent I tried to insert this call before getAuthData(): $objAuth->storage->fetchData($objAuth->username, $objAuth->password); and that resolved the problem. I am really not sure that this is the right way; please, anybody explain me what goes on. My configuration: OS: Windows 2000 Professional SP4 Web server: Apache 2.0.50 PHP: PHP 5.0.1 Auth, Auth_HTTP, DB etc.: latest versions Best regards, Denis Gerasimov Outsourcing Services Manager, VEKOS, Ltd. www.vekos.ru
