apache: basic authentication before rewrite
- by pyro
I have an apache in frontend that redirect a request via a rewrite rule.
I have to put a basic authentication before redirect a request, so I put this in the config file:
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerAdmin xxxxxx
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/
ServerName xxxxxxx
RewriteEngine on
ErrorLog logs/error.log
CustomLog logs/access_log common
<Directory /var/www/html/>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/conf/tag.pwd
Require valid-user
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://xxxxxx:xxx/$1 [P,L]
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
But doesn't work.
Any suggestions?
