I am trying to setup an authentication for a directory on a ubuntu server and when i sign in i get a 500 Internal Server Error
I have the following:
AuthUserFile .htpasswd
AuthName "Sign In"
AuthType Basic
Require eMA
I also tried the POST GET and valid-user
the htpaswd file is in the same directory as the htaccess.
I cant seem to figure out what would be causing this any ideas?

I assume you use apache webserver. Most probably you will find the cause of the error in the error_log file which can be found in /var/log/apache2 according to http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/DistrosDefaultLayout.
