[SOLVED] .htaccess Authentication in Nginx works only on root folder and no other page

In this case better put the auth stuff outside the location block, so it applies globally:

Code:

http {
    access_log 		logs/http_access.log;
    include       	mime.types;
    default_type  	application/octet-stream;
    sendfile        	on;
    keepalive_timeout  	65;
		
    server {
        listen		80;
        server_name	localhost;

	auth_basic "Restricted Content";
	auth_basic_user_file /usr/local/nginx/conf/.htpasswd; 

     # rtmp statistics
        location /stat {
            rtmp_stat all;
            rtmp_stat_stylesheet stat.xsl;
            allow 127.0.0.1;
        }
<-SNIP->
        location / {
	    index index.html index.htm index.php index.cgi;
	}
