Invalid command 'AuthType', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

Solution 1
It seems that AuthType
is provided by the mod_authn_core
in Apache 2.4. I don't see that module loaded in the list you provided.
Solution 2
I'm using Server version: Apache/2.2.15
, I have got the same error while starting server.
I have enabled module mod_authn_file
and mod_auth_basic
. Works fine now!

I'm trying to password protect the document root and all I get is an "internal server error" page. The Apache error log shows:
Invalid command 'AuthType', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
My .htaccess file before any rewrite entries:
AuthType Basic AuthName "Restricted Access" AuthBasicProvider file AuthUserFile /var/www/public/.htpasswd Require user dean
I checked if the modules were enabled:
Array ( [0] => core [1] => mod_so [2] => mod_watchdog [3] => http_core [4] => mod_log_config [5] => mod_logio [6] => mod_version [7] => mod_unixd [8] => mod_access_compat [9] => mod_alias [10] => mod_auth_basic [11] => mod_authn_file [12] => mod_authz_core [13] => mod_authz_groupfile [14] => mod_authz_host [15] => mod_authz_user [16] => mod_autoindex [17] => mod_cgi [18] => mod_dav [19] => mod_dav_fs [20] => mod_deflate [21] => mod_dir [22] => mod_env [23] => mod_filter [24] => mod_mime [25] => mod_negotiation [26] => mod_php5 [27] => prefork [28] => mod_reqtimeout [29] => mod_rewrite [30] => mod_setenvif [31] => mod_socache_shmcb [32] => mod_ssl )
My Apache version is 2.4.10 on Ubuntu 14.04
