HOW TO FIX PAM MODULE SINCE RAQ550 UPDATE1
) Login as root
2) Use editor to edit httpd.conf file like"pico /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf"
The top line of httpd.conf has the following line since the update:
LoadModule pam_external_auth_module modules/mod_auth_pam_external.so
This line is also remarked out in the httpd.conf file. Find it in the file and remove the # and remove the top copy.
In pico, go to this line with your cursor and cut it out by pressing Ctrl-K
IF
FOR SOME reason you do not see the line in the file then Move down to
the ClearModuleList section and place it in the section so that it
looks: ClearModuleListAddModule mod_so.cAddModule mod_perl.cLoadModule
pam_external_auth_module modules/mod_auth_pam_external.soLoadModule
userdir_module modules/mod_userdir.soLoadModule alias_module
modules/mod_alias.so
Press Ctrl-x to exit and save the file.
3) Type the following on the command line:
/etc/init.d/httpd reload And press enter.
You will get something like:
[root]# /etc/init.d/httpd reload
Reloading httpd: httpd ok
[root]#./etc/init.d/httpd restart
It should now be fixed
