Re: [cobalt-users] Problems with htaccess not working

["John D. Gorena" <Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

1) Login as root
2) Use editor to edit httpd.conf file like
"pico /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf"

The top line of httpd.conf has the following line since the update:
LoadModule pam_external_auth_module modules/mod_auth_pam_external.so

In pico, go to this line with your cursor and kut it out by pressing
Ctrl-K

Move down to the ClearModuleList section and place it in the section so
that it looks:
ClearModuleList
AddModule mod_so.c
AddModule mod_perl.c
LoadModule pam_external_auth_module modules/mod_auth_pam_external.so
LoadModule userdir_module modules/mod_userdir.so
LoadModule alias_module modules/mod_alias.so

Press Ctrl-x to exit and save the file.

3) Type the following on the command line:
/etc/init.d/httpd reload

And press enter.

You will get something like:
[root]# /etc/init.d/httpd reload
Reloading httpd: httpd ok
[root]#
