Question

auth_password blank when it shouldn't be

Why is the cgi variable auth_password coming up blank?  This is on CF 10.  I have debugging information turned on and can see all of the cgi variables and it correctly shows the username and authentication type (I have it set to Basic Authentication with Anonymous turned off and it shows AUTH_TYPE=Basic).  If I run an asp page using <% Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables("auth_password")) %> it shows the password so I know it's not IIS.  Any ideas?

    I have the same problem after upgrading to CF10. It works fine in CF9. I used auth_user/auth_password a lot in conjunction with CFHTTP.

    That's when we saw the problem too.  After upgrading (our dev machines) to CF10.  We use auth_user/auth_password a lot too and need this fixed ASAP.
