I'm using AxKit (1.6 packages from sarge), and I have a problem with
authentication and authorization that only exists with apache-perl. It runs
beautifully with apache without any changes. The issue has been discussed
on the AxKit mailing list, beginning here:
http://maclux-rz.uibk.ac.at/~maillists/axkit-users/msg04246.shtml
I have the following config:
<Location /login.xsp >
AuthType Apache::AxKit::Plugin::Session
AuthName AxKitSession
PerlSetVar AxKitSessionLoginScript /login.xsp
PerlAuthenHandler Apache::AxKit::Plugin::Session->authenticate
PerlAuthzHandler Apache::AxKit::Plugin::Session->authorize
require valid-user
</Location>
When I try to access /login.xsp, I get the following error (quoting from
server restart to the end):
[Fri Jan 17 14:37:05 2003] [notice] Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) Debian
GNU/Linux AxKit/1.6 mod_perl/1.26 mod_perl/1.26 configured -- resuming
normal operations
[Fri Jan 17 14:37:05 2003] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper:
/usr/lib/apache/suexec)
[Fri Jan 17 14:37:05 2003] [notice] Accept mutex: sysvsem (Default:
sysvsem)
[Fri Jan 17 14:37:17 2003] [crit] [client 195.1.208.96] configuration
error: couldn't check user. No user file?: /login.xsp
Clearly, this error message indicates it tries basic authentication, and
after being adviced on the list about it, I enabled some debug messages in
Apache::AxKit::Plugin::Session. Then, it becomes quite clear that the
PerlAuth*Handlers are in fact never called.
As I said, the problem disappears completely if I instead run the pure
apache packages, it is for that reason I assume this is a bug with the
apache-perl package. I may be totally wrong, of course... :-) Others
reported similar problems to me after I asked too, BTW.
I was in doubt whether to mark this a normal bug, or important, but
landed on the latter since I figured many users of mod_perl would also want
some kind of auth*-functionality, hope that's ok... :-)

Uhm, actually, yeah, that mod_perl occured twice was indeed a Bad
Sign[tm], that should have caught my attention earlier...
Going
modules-config apache-perl disable mod_perl
did in fact resolve the situation, the relevant Perl-handlers are now
called, and everything is fine! :-)
In other words, this bug was in fact a sub-bug of bug #215748.
Cheers,
Kjetil
