 Posted: Sat Aug 07, 2004 3:31 pm Post subject: [solved] $REMOTE_USER not set with Apache2.0.50 and PHP4.3.8 |
 |
|
Hello,
I just installed Apache 2 and php_mod on my computer. But I still have a little problem I can't get fixed.
I have some php scripts that can only be executed when the user is logged in with .htaccess, so the scripts begin like this:
| Code: | if ($REMOTE_USER == "")
exit;
/*The rest of the php script comes here*/ |
And these scripts work when I use them on my webspace I get from my school. But when I try to run them on my own webserver, the $REMOTE_USER variable doesn't have a value.
And the directory the script is in is protected with a .htaccess file and I'm pretty sure its correct (because I have to login before I can get to that directory).
The .htaccess file is as follows:
| Code: | AuthUserFile /home/kristof/public_html/filemanager/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Filemanager"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user |
Anyone know how I can solve this problem? Might there be something wrong with my php or apache configuration?
Greetings,
Kristof

using $REMOTE_USER Is deprecated ...
You need to use server environment associative array
$_SERVER["REMOTE_USER"] or something like these (I don't sure)
Or you can use deprecated and security risk 'register_globals' to set variable for environment and form data.[/url]
