Since we’ve activated Cloudflare DNS, we regularly get an authentication window (of the htpasswd type) every time we browse the site. How can we avoid this?
It looks like security, because all connections have to come from Cloudflare IPs.
I don’t have any requests for information in my .htaccess file.
No, but when I ask my host it’s not on his side either.
So I’m thinking it might be related to a special security configuration on the server that’s been triggered since I activated Cloudflare, but I can’t find it. Maybe someone here has an idea?
I changed the type A configuration from “Proxied” to “DNS Only” in DNS management and I still have the problem even though it appeared when Cloudflare was activated, I don’t understand.
This makes it clear that Cloudflare is not related to what you are seeing. The cause lies on your origin server. I would check logs and look for any .htaccess that contain Auth directives.
