Description

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:

2013/07/24 17:47:43 [error] 5912#0: *20 no user/password was provided for basic authentication, client: 127.0.0.1, server: _, request: "GET /supervisor/ HTTP/1.1", host: "localhost:3306"

Ok, I not noticed that

Since version 0.6.7 the filename path is relative to directory of nginx configuration file nginx.conf, but not to nginx prefix directory.

So you could close this as not a bug.
