nginx basic auth don't work on windows

6k views Asked by At

This is my a part of nginx conf (window2003 server)

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name  xxx.example.com;
  access_log  logs/example.com.log;

  location / {
    auth_basic  "Restricted";
    auth_basic_user_file  c:/xxx/password_file;
    proxy_set_header  Authorization "";
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_pass   http://127.0.0.1:3000/xx/;
  }
}

Visit xxx.exmaple.com site tips my input username & password(correct), repeat this tips again and again。

  1. password_file is created by htpassword command on Mac OS.
  2. http://127.0.0.1:3000/xx/ proxy for tomcat application .
  3. nginx version is 1.7.12 for window.

May be HttpBasicAuthModule with nginx not support windows platform ?
