 * I have a problem with the script, when I try to set it up, I receive this error:”
   ERROR: Failed to create <MYPATH>/.htpasswda3″.
 * Please note that <MYPATH> is replaced with the real path of the file.
    I set 
   up the permissions for the folders, subfolders and file, I created and deleted
   the file, both ways, it doesn’t work.
 * What can I do?
 * Thanks.
 * Regards,
 * Andrei

 * I have the same problem, the solution on every other thread ends in an update,
   and they close the thread. Why can’t it also print the .htpasswda3 files content
   to a text field so one may copy it out and when it doesn’t work, create the file
   themselves. On mine it managed to create the file, but nothing is in the file.
   There is just an empty .htpasswda3 file.
