The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

.htaccess results in 404 error....

Asked by Roachy1979 in Apache Web Server, Miscellaneous Web Development, WebApplications

Tags: , ,

Probably glaringly obvious but I just can't seem to see it and it's been driving me nuts!

Trying to password protect a webserver directory with .htaccess/.htpasswd combination following a move to a new server.  As soon as the .htaccess file is present I get a 404 error.  Remove or rename the .htaccess and I can view the site.....

I have created the .htaccess and generated the .htpasswd file.

The .htaccess looks like this:

DirectoryIndex index.php
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Administration Page - Please Log In"
AuthUserFile /home/ruralcon/.htpasswd
<limit GET PUT POST>
require valid-user
</limit>

The working directory of the .htpasswd is /home/ruralcon

What am I doing wrong??  Any help would be massively appreciated, as this has taken up far too much of my morning already!!!
