title: http authentication via htacces does not work on ubuntu
body: <p>need a help with .htacces file to make http authentication. </p>
  
  <p>I made .htacces and .htpasswd files due to tutorial on some web page, but it doesn't work. </p>
  
  <p>.htacces file is very simple </p>
  
  <p>AuthType Basic
  AuthName "xxx"
  AuthUserFile my/directory/path/
  Require valid-user</p>
  
  <p>Path is right, I checked it. Does anyone know what can be wrong please? Maybe there's something on ubuntu I should change or something.Thanks</p>
