I tried htpasswd -c command for user and passwd and I have got crypted line at .htpasswd I put the same login and passwd as I have in https://twiki.org/

-- VictorPais - 19 Jul 2006

it looks as if you have really screwed your configuration. You have modified TWiki.cfg (not recommended) and added

$cfg{LoginManager} = 'VictorPais';

One month passed, closing question as unanswered.

I have had the same problem. I think another reason may be that the .htpasswd file does not have enough permissions - the server does not have permission to read the file, and thus can not find the user. Similar issues in CannotRunTheConfigure.

However, I am unsure how to solve this without creating security issues.

For readers who are concerned about the security implications of opening up permissions so widely, or who are having problems changing ownership, refer to ConfigureAuthentication.
