Well, I haven't been able to get this module to work for me. It compiles fine, but setting up a auth restricted directory just results in a 500.
Using this:
<Directory "/var/www/localhost/htdocs/test/">
AuthName "My PostgreSQL Authenticator"
AuthType basic
AuthBasicAuthoritative Off
Auth_PG_authoritative on
AuthUserFile /dev/null
Auth_PG_host localhost
Auth_PG_port 5432
Auth_PG_user postgres
Auth_PG_database wwwtest
Auth_PG_pwd_table valid_users
Auth_PG_uid_field username
Auth_PG_pwd_field password
Auth_PG_encrypted off
require valid-user
</Directory>
Log output:

===============================
I'm also up for just removing the module as it's been nearly 10 years since it's had an update and Apache has mod_authn_dbd that can use PostgreSQL.
This package has been masked for removal after 2016-03-11. Package has been removed. commit 31bd551b4294b9dfd39858efc1e8a44b013da966 Author: Aaron W. Swenson <titanofold@gentoo.org> Date: Mon Mar 21 12:08:19 2016 -0400 www-apache/mod_auth_pgsql: Removal www-apache/mod_auth_pgsql was removed per bug 548974. It hasn’t been updated for somewhere around 10 years and has been superseded by mod_authn_dbd for quite some time. Additionally, mod_auth_pgsql is susceptible to severe security bug(s) that have gone unresolved by upstream, which has also disappeared. If you’re still using mod_auth_pgsql, may God have mercy on your soul. Bug: 255033, 548974 |
