make fails

[krtschmr]

i cloned the git and run make which then fails

tim@vm:~/pam/pam-http$ make
cc -Werror -Wall -o test src/test.c -lpam -lpam_misc
src/test.c:12:31: fatal error: security/pam_appl.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
Makefile:11: recipe for target 'test' failed
make: *** [test] Error 1

how can i install this for testing?

Most probably you solved it by now; but for future readers take a look at this link: http://ask.xmodulo.com/fatal-error-security-pam-modules.html

However this project would definitely benefit from better documentation on the kind of request the server receives (GET, POST, Query Params?, Body Params?, etc)

no, we didn't solved this. maybe we don't need this anymore as we trying a different solution now. instead of ftp-auth with user-accounts (same logins for our website) we just use cloud.

@krtschmr Sorry for the late reply, but late is better than never, right?

Eh, this was mostly a proof of concept and wasn't intended to be used as-is. I had grand aspirations of doing something awesome like implementing a portable profile (login from anywhere and have all your things), but that ended up in the waste basket along with many other dreams of taking over the world ;)

Do you have pam installed? It works fine for me on Arch Linux, so if you gave me some more information about your OS, I might be able to provide more assistance.

I saw this issue on Centos/Amazon Linux. simply run yum install pam-devel to install the necessary dependencies.
