Full Discussion: htpasswd command not found
Operating Systems Linux htpasswd command not found Post 302174391 by nua7 on Tuesday 11th of March 2008 03:19:17 AM

Bug

Few things that you need to check.

1)Check if Apache is really running.
"ps -ef | grep 'apache'"

2)Check if the executable for htpasswd exists on the system
"whereis htpasswd"
htpasswd is generally found in /usr/bin/htpasswd.

3)If you are not a root user, check if you have proper permissions.Generally the permissions are 755.

Hope this helps!

basic_ncsa_auth(8)					      System Manager's Manual						basic_ncsa_auth(8)

NAME
basic_ncsa_auth - NCSA httpd-style password file authentication helper for Squid SYNOPSIS
basic_ncsa_auth passwd file DESCRIPTION
basic_ncsa_auth allows Squid to read and authenticate user and password information from an NCSA/Apache httpd-style password file when using basic HTTP authentication. This password file can be manipulated using htpasswd. This authenticator accepts: * Blowfish - for passwords 72 characters or less in length * SHA256 - with salting and magic strings * SHA512 - with salting and magic strings * MD5 - with optional salt and magic strings * DES - for passwords 8 characters or less in length NOTE: Blowfish and SHA algorithms require system-specific support. OPTIONS
The only parameter is the password file. It must have permissions to be read by the user that Squid is running as. CONFIGURATION
basic_ncsa_auth /etc/squid/squid.pass basic_ncsa_auth must have access to the password file to be executed. KNOWN ISSUES
DES functionality (used by htpasswd by default) silently truncates passwords to 8 characters. Allowing login with password values shorter than the one desired. This authenticator will reject login with long passwords when using DES. AUTHOR
