Apache Friends Support Forum

dear all,

I installed the new version of XAMPP (1.8.1), started Apache and MySQL and tried to check everything by going to the test page. However, this page asks for authentication...nowhere i can find what to do with this!
Tried changing the "xampp.users" file within the security directory, but to no avail. Probably missing something trivial, but I would appreciate some help (and perhaps this should be included on the webpage?)

with kind regards,

Aldo

Hi AldoJongejan,

Please delete the file \xampp\htdocs\xampp\.htaccess to get rid of that authentification again.

best wishes,
Altrea
