Description Tim Finer 2004-02-06 10:26:09 UTC 
/etc/apache2/conf/modules.d/10_mod_auth_external.conf

is installed with:
AddExternalAuth  pwauth /etc/apache2/extramodules/pwauth

but apache won't find pwauth and writes:
... AuthExtern pwauth [extramodules/pwauth]: Failed (255) for user ...

to the apache error log.

I changed pwauth to the fullpath, and now it works:
AddExternalAuth  pwauth /etc/apache2/extramodules/pwauth

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge apache
2. emerge mod_auth_external
3. Set up a Directory to use pwauth

Actual Results:  
... AuthExtern pwauth [extramodules/pwauth]: Failed (255) for user ...
in apache's error log

Expected Results:  
Pwauth should have been called.
