    Hello,

    I recently installed the free version for a test run before making a jump to pro and hit a problem with .htpasswd and .htgroup files. First, the chmod has been done for amember and amember/data folders as well as for .htpasswd and .htgroup. Second, the .htaccess file is located in the amember/data folder and looks like this:


    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "Swing Members Only"
    AuthUserFile /usr/www/user/abhill3/tdtrader/amember/data/.htpasswd
    AuthGroupFile /usr/www/user/abhill3/tdtrader/amember/data/.htgroup
    Require group PRODUCT_1

    The path is correct as it was taken from my current .htaccess file.

    I can add members and even change their payment status (free), but these added members cannot log in to the protected folder (/swing/test.htm)

    Please advise. Thanks.

    Please paste your .htpasswd and .htgroup files here.

    Got me!

    I sensed from the simplicity of your response, that I best go double check files and guess what? Yep, I missed an "s" in the path. Everything is working and I will continue to re-evaluate. Many thanks!

    Thank you for letting know!
    This part of code is 2-years old, and just CANNOT have bugs ;)
