Recently on my mostly PHP website, that I just started. I added a .htaccess and .htpassword. I set a password and User name, and went to my site to test it out.

That is when I started having problems. After I logged in I would be continuously re-directed to a "Kwikiphp.com web hosting blog" and was unable to access my actual website.

So, I went back and deleted my .htaccess and .htpasswd file and went to my website, everything is back to normal now.

Does anybody know a fix for this? I want to keep the files I deleted and have a Username/Password to access my website.

Update: Here is my .htaccess code.

CODE

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^(.*).flv$ index.php?q=$1&flv=1

AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/vol1/myok_1830809/htdocs/.htpasswd/
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user

## SITE REFERRER BANNING
RewriteEngine on
# Options +FollowSymlinks

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} www\.google\.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} www\.websense\.com [NC]
RewriteRule .* - [F]

## PREVENT VIEWING OF .HTACCESS
<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>

You can run a check to see if the user is currently signed in. If not, create a login function in an include file, & load that content. Maybe something like a user id & password input box.

Once the user logs in, create a cookie with the users username. Then, at the header of each php file, check for that cookie. If they are signed in, load the content. If you cannot find the cookie, load the login page.

Have a look at some pseudo-code, and give it a try.

CODE

//Login.php
session_start();
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
if(username and password are valid) {
$_SESSION['isAuthed'] = true;
$_SESSION['username'] = $username;
header("Location: http://www.site.com/");
} else {
// Show login form
}


Now on your main site, on your php pages at the top
CODE

session_start();
if(!$_SESSION['isAuthed']){
header("Location:http://www.site.com/login.php");
}



But I think your problem is here
CODE

AuthUserFile /home/vol1/myok_1830809/htdocs/.htpasswd/


should be
CODE

AuthUserFile /home/vol1/myok_1830809/htdocs/.htpasswd


Also I would take .htpasswd out of web root, even tho you have a rule for it.
