387	auth_basic_user_file is relative not from prefix given by -p key	Тарас Буник		"I have following in config:
{{{
    location /supervisor/ {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:9001;
        proxy_redirect off;
        auth_basic ""please log in"";
        auth_basic_user_file ./htpasswd;
    }
}}}

I start nginx like this: {{{sudo nginx -p /home/user/project/ }}}

htpasswd lies at {{{/home/user/project/htpasswd}}}

But in nginx error log I see this:
{{{
