Description
Hi,
I installed piwik, now I'd like to enter my data into the drupal module piwik.
Therefore I have the line "Piwik HTTP-URL" to fill out. The URL to Piwik is behind a htaccess file so I get the error "Fehler „Authorization Required“ fehlgeschlagen (HTTP-Code 401)."
Hmm any hints? However I need the htaccess file.... Many thanks
I postet this post also on the piwik forum page. I will add the result to this side as well then. wasnt shure if its a piwik or drupal problem.

Remove this buggy rule, please.

I wrote with Alexander and here is a short result:
piwik doesnt work if there is a htaccess file which will protect the whole piwik folder. how to make the piwik data safe? i doent know.
maybe you have to adopt the htaccess file. i wouldnt use piwik as long there is no htaccess. in case someone finds a tuturial about how piwik can be made safe, please write me.
many thanks.

If you *block* the piwik module from accessing it's own tracker files (piwik.php, piwik.js) - piwik is not able to track anything!
You may be able to protect the subfolders with .htacces, but I cannot say if this will work well, but it may be possible to block from all other files except the tracker URLs. Untested - maybe the piwik core maintainers know...
