Admin RSS feeds not working…

mediademon Total Posts: 15 Joined: 2008-09-26 Ignore user	Hi When trying to access the “Notify Low Stock RSS” I’m presented with a browser login… Tried entering my Magento Admin credentials but no joy… Cancelling the login request just gives: “You are not authorized to view this page” HTTP Error 401.1 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials. Running 1.1.7 on windows, although 1.1.6 suffers the same error. I’ve had a good look round the forum but it’s quite difficult trying to find any threads related specifically to “rss” (they all do!) Any help appreciated! Signature mediademon http://www.mediademon.com

I cannot seem to resolve this problem with the RSS Feeds not working in the admin panel due to repeated prompts to enter the username and password do nothing but bring the prompt back up and canceling the prompt returns the 401 error. I have cloned the magento install on a local XAMPP windows install and it works perfect buy my reseller hosting does not. Any help would be great. Signature Catch My Drift?

Vic..... Total Posts: 1 Joined: 2009-05-25 Ignore user	I am experiencing the same issue. I installed new 1.3.1.1 upgrades no help still asking for user name and password. I tried changing DB password to my Magento admin password. Everything went down. All I got was this scary line.: > SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user ‘noname’@’look.dreamhost.com’ > (using password: YES) and Magento’s trace stack. Changed it back to original password. Everything’s back to normal. Has anybody experienced the username, password issue that has not changed their admin password since original install? I’m thinking it has something to do with the way Magento is dealing with new passwords? All RSS Feeds enabled in system>configuration

RichTea Total Posts: 1 Joined: 2009-09-14 Ignore user	I ran into this problem on IIS6. By default IIS6 configures directory security with both anonymous access and Integrated Windows Authentication selected. The problem is that iis pops up an integrated login box before the Magento login. I believe this is to allow for AD integrated logins. To fix this go to the properties sheet for the site, on the directory security tab select Edit in Authetication and Access control. In hte Authentication methods property sheet untick all of the authenticated access options so that Enable anonymous access is the only control. OK back through all the dialogs. Next time you log in you will only see the second login form which will accept the Magento credentials. To check for this Cancel the login box, if another appears with slightly different text, you have this problem. or - enter your windows credentials in first box.

I’m suffering from it as we speak - it feels like a mod_rewrite related issue, any clues or debugging suggestions would be most welcome! Signature Still has a soft spot for version 1.3.2.4

benz001 Total Posts: 223 Joined: 2009-02-05 Sydney Ignore user	Its something to do with the way the hosting company runs PHP as a cgi, the http_authentication server variable doesn’t get created by default in a PHP CGI configuration, but running PHP as an Apache module it does. The standard .htaccess file that ships with Magento has a commonly used workaround for this, but in some server configurations that workaround doesn’t work. I still haven’t been able to find a workaround that does! Signature Still has a soft spot for version 1.3.2.4

tux453 Total Posts: 1 Joined: 2010-04-13 Ignore user	We found our environment was restricting which environment variables made it to the php cgi binary (shared hosting environment). As a result, this workaround to store the authorization information as a HTTP param worked: .htaccess `<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^Basic.* RewriteRule (.*) index.php?Authorization=%{HTTP:Authorization} [QSA,L] </IfModule>` app/code/core/Mage/Core/Helper/Http.php: elseif (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_AUTHORIZATION'])) { $auth = $_SERVER['HTTP_AUTHORIZATION']; list($user, $pass) = explode(':', base64_decode(substr($auth, strpos($auth, " ") + 1))); } elseif (!empty($_GET['Authorization'])) { $auth = $_GET['Authorization']; list($user, $pass) = explode(':', base64_decode(substr($auth, strpos($auth, " ") + 1))); } elseif (!empty($_SERVER['Authorization'])) { (the section with $_GET[’Authorization’] were the lines that were added, 4 lines total in the block)

enru Total Posts: 12 Joined: 2008-06-16 Ignore user	Hi, A fix for PHP on CGI is already in app/code/core/Mage/Core/Helper/Http.php albeit for Apache 2.2 If you’re running PHP on CGI under Apache 1.3 then all you need to do is update one line in your .htaccess file. No core Magento file hacking required. All you need to do is change this line (Apache 2.2 syntax): `RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]` ... to this (Apache 1.3 syntax): `RewriteRule (.*) $1 [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]` That’s all folks, N. UPDATE: I swear the above worked last night. I returned today and the above rewrite fails for requests for just the domain & for some reason the environment vars was no longer getting set. I reverted to the $_GET method. Major fail. I should never have posted so quickly :-(
