Hey Bill,
Have you checked the main Apache config file? Or whatever you are running? If override is set to none for .htaccess you will have this issue. That must be set to ALL and if it still doesn't work, it may just be a permission problem. I have a great script I use to correct all permissions for all directories and it will save you. Let me know if you still have issues.

Thanks.
Chris

I think you would be happier if you did this as a drupal module (it really is not that hard to do), than trying to hack the .htaccess file.   Also drupal's .htaccess could be modified to point to your script rather than .php.

Implementing a custom module is really straightforward for what you need:

Create a subfolder  in the sites/all/modules folder lets say  sites/all/modules/mymodule
Create a single .info file text file in that folder (mymodule.info) with the following text:

name =  mymodule
core = 7.x

Then create a  mymodule.module file with a single function:
function mymodule_init() {
  // your code that should execute on every drupal page load goes here.
}

You can now enable this module in your drupal site and do what you need to do.  As a general strategy, I'd recommend writing code that inspects for session variables or cookies set by the other application and if it doesn't find them  redirects to the url either with drupal_goto()  or with a header set.   You can tell wether the drupal user is logged in by inspecting the global variable $user and seeing if it has a uid property.

Subject: [support] .htaccess question
I have a php script that I wrote that will use Drupal to validate the user login of a separate app that isn't part of Drupal. I have a php script that I want to put within the Drupal site. I can't seem to make .htaccess override the Drupal settings so that I can execute the php. Currently, I have, in the folder that holds the php:

# disable directory browsing
Options All -Indexes
AddHandler cgi-script .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php

What should I do to enable my php script to execute? I've set the permissions to execute and I do get a listing of the php script file contents, which is not what I want. How can I make it execute?
