Question

I have registered setup TWiki on my computer and registered with twiki. Unfortunatly when I go to do anything like editing my account page I get access denied without ever being asked for a user name and password. I have tried deleting all cookies and saved passwords to no avail. How can I force firefox or twiki to ask for my user name? Is this an apache issue

Other things I have tried include using Epiphany and Konqueror with the same result, and deleting the TwikiGuest user from the .htpasswd file.

Environment

Server OS: Ubuntu 5.10
Web server: Apache 2.0.54
Perl version: 5.8.7

ALERT! If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

This sounds like an apache error, rather than anything to do with twiki. I assume you have carefully checked that your .htaccess and httpd.conf files are as advised in the installation docs?
