FastCGI + PHP + HTTP-AUTH

[Binford8000]

It requires some changes in your PHP-Script and the fastcgi_ispcp.conf to get it to work.

- open /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/fastcgi_ispcp.conf
- add "-pass-header AUTHORIZATION" behind all this stuff of FastCgiConfig.
- restart/reload Apache

Now edit your Auth-Script and enhance it with this code: http://textsnippets.com/posts/show/312

PHP Code:

/**
 * Get HTTP Auth to work with PHP+FastCGI
 *
 * @author  Jacques Marneweck <jacques@php.net>
 * @license PHP License v3.01
 */

/**
 * Get HTTP Auth to work with PHP+FastCGI
 */

    

if (isset($_SERVER["AUTHORIZATION"]) && !empty($_SERVER["AUTHORIZATION"])) {

    list ($type, $cred) = split (" ", $_SERVER['AUTHORIZATION']);

    if ($type == 'Basic') {
        list ($user, $pass) = explode (":", base64_decode($cred));
        $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] = $user;
        $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] = $pass;
    }

}

There are slightly other examples

add "-pass-header HTTP_AUTHORIZATION" to the fastcgiconfig and then no modification in the php scripts should be needed...

I didn't test it...

That does not work. (for me)

[joximu]

Ok, thanx.

I have to also do some tests... - I'm sure we will have questions about this in near future...
