I might be wrong, but I didn't think you could have a AuthUserFile in the
same directory that you were trying to protect...

That is not right. What you have to write is the complete path starting in
the root directory. In Windows it is not a slash "/".
It has to be a backslash "\".

AuthUserFile x:\www_1\www\asdf\.htpasswd


Nevertheless you should never put the .htpasswd file in the same directory
like the .htaccess file. Put it one directory above. For example:

AuthUserFile x:/www_1/www/.htpasswd



Example of the .htaccess file

AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
AuthUserFile c:\home\.htpasswd
Require user ExampleUser


Best regards

If you use windows it is not a slash "/". It has to be a backslash "\".
You have to use a slash "/" only on unix/linux systems.

It depends on your .htaccess file.
In your .htaccess file is a line

AuthUserFile C:\Program\.....

In this specified path the .htpasswd file has to be.

From your initial posting:
| I want to protect the x:/www_1/www/asdf directory with this
| simple htaccess:
|
| AuthUserFile .htpasswd

Either move the file to
C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/
or use full path with the directive, like
AuthUserFile x:/www_1/www/asdf/.htpasswd

Thanks for all...
I solved the problem...
I used online password generator, so i wrote the bad password, now i
use the local htpasswd.exe to generate password and it's working...
It works with / and \ too...
