As per thread title, In Cpanel 54.01, when trying to protect a directory through the directory privacy option with the Paper Lantern theme, the request isn't completed fully.
After a few mins of working through this I discovered the following:-
- The passwd file is created correctly, in the correct location
- It is given the correct permissions
- The htaccess file is not correctly updated with the required Auth rules
- Manually editing the htaccess file is possible, though hardly ideal for less technical users.
I couldn't get this to work with any set of permissions settings on the .htaccess file.
