This pull requests adds an additional line of configuration to the
.htaccess
file to support authorization headers under Apache.I ran into this problem when I was setting up a new project which sets the HTTP
Authorization
header. It seems like Apache does not pass theAuthorization
header by default, because the default setting for theCGIPassAuth
isOff
, according to Apache's documentation. The same issue has been reported in several forums e.g. this one on stackoverflow.Adding these instructions to the
.htaccess
causes the authorization header to be passed along 👍Inside our acceptance tests we're using the php docker image which has special configuration settings for Apache, thus sending the
Authorization
header along without any additional adjustments needed.
