Recreating .htpasswd

22 April 2002 Password Management Installation Guide

If you want to deactivate a username and password, simply canceling a users subscription will

not necessarily deactivate the pair. If the cancellation was due to a payment failure, usernames

and passwords are immediately canceled when the subscription is canceled. If the cancellation

was made by the buyer or seller, then the usernames and passwords will be active until the

subscription terms expire (the date of the next scheduled payment). If you wish to deactivate

these usernames and passwords when you cancel a subscriber, you will need to manually

modify the

.htpassword file.

Recreating .htpasswd

You can recreate your .htpasswd file using the downloadable list of your active subscribers

passwords. Here's how:

Obtain the list of all subscription-related (non-payment) entries

1. Log in to your PayPal account

2. Go to the History subtab of the My Account tab

3. Choose the Download Log link

4. Choose the All transactions radio button and the Subscriptions radio button (which will

only appear after someone has subscribed to your service)

5. Click Download History.

This file will contain all of your non-payment subscription-related entries (Sign-ups,

Cancellations, and Completions).

To get your Subscription Creations , filter out the Subscription Cancellation and Subscription

Completion Transactions. This is your list of subscribers.

To view all subscribers with valid passwords, you can then sort by all subscriptions with the

status "active", "active-completed", or "activecancelled" (thereby filtering out the inactive-

cancelled or inactive-completed).

The passwords of these subscribers make up the .htpasswd file.
