Lighttpd with authorization: mod_auth.so not loaded

[Pim Borst]

Hello,

When I install lighttpd (lighttpd-1.4.15 (ssl), Build-Date: May 22 2007 14:01:18) and enable authorization I get the following error:

Starting web server: lighttpd
2007-06-05 09:26:22: (plugin.c.165) dlopen() failed for: /opt/lib/lighttpd/mod_auth.so File not found
2007-06-05 09:26:22: (server.c.594) loading plugins finally failed

Does anybody know what's wrong?
The only things I changed in the stock lighttpd.conf are enabling the module and adding:

auth.backend               = "htdigest"
auth.backend.htdigest.userfile = "/opt/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.user"
auth.require = ( "/" =>
  (
    "method"  => "digest",
    "realm"   => "ABC",
    "require" => "valid-user"
  )
)

Thanks,
Pim.

Thanks Greengreen, but I found out the problem was not in the .conf file.

It turned out that the authorization module mod_auth.so depends on openldap-libs, even when you don't enable LDAP authorization.
After installing that package everything worked fine.
