htpasswd not working

[carlzoo]

Tried following the example and put .htpasswd in /downloads and ~/test/downloads, neither worked. The access to port 8080 page was left open without any authentication.

@carlzoo, I got it!

all warks fine. Look at startup:
docker run -dt --name rtorrent-rutorrent -p 8080:80 -p 49160:49160/udp -p 49161:49161 -v ~/test:/downloads diameter/rtorrent-rutorrent:latest

here is a volume mounting -v ~/test:/downloads

in this case you must create a test directory into your HOME to be used for storing .htpasswd and mounting as /downloads inside docker

or you may replace ~/test with your full path
