further update..
I tried editing my original post but took too long and wasn't allowed to update it any longer.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I deleted the .htpasswd file and rebuilt it in case it had been corrupted, but the same results.
I checked to see if I had other .htaccess files which might be overriding this one. A locate gives me this:
root@cops:/ # locate .htaccess
/root/.composer/.htaccess
/root/.composer/cache/.htaccess
/usr/local/www/cops/.htaccess
root@cops:/ #
And running a locate on .htpasswd returns nothing.
root@cops:/ # locate .htpasswd
It's as if the file doesn't exist. I know it's a hidden file, but so is .htaccess and that was found.
In any case, I have copies of the .htpasswd file in multiple directories and can see them when I run ls -l -a on those directories. When I figure out what the problem is, I'll delete all the files not used.
