Apache Authentication Still Accepts the old password in the htpasswd

  • 772

I run Apache on Ubuntu and use basic HTTP authentication.

I have a htpasswd file and there is a user named scott with the password of tiger. However I changed the password to tiger1.

Now I can login using both tiger and tiger1. Even though I can see that there is only one line in the htpasswd file and the encrypted password has been changed after I changed the password.

What is the problem and how can I cope with it?

ubuntu apache-2.2 http-authentication

  1. Check you .htaccess file and confirm the location of the htpasswd file .. maybe you are using 2 different files
