Cannot password protect httpsdocs directories

[DickenW]

Some of the domains hosted on my Plesk box were setup under older version of Plesk to have separate directories for http and https.

Since version 10 of Plesk, if I create a new directory under the httpsdocs part of the domain, I cannot set a password for it the Control Panel. A password can only be set for directories in the httpdocs part of the domain.

Guess something went wrong while the directories were converted over during the 9.x --> 10.x upgrade process? Can someone tell me if this can be fixed?

*bump*

Can anybody recommend how to secure httpsdocs under plesk 10?

According, my experimentation, it was already the case in Plesk 9.x, no way to fix a password directory on httpsdocs.
However you can always create manually htaccess and htpasswd file to create a password directory. (In this cas, Google is your friend )

It definitely worked fine (for me) under Plesk 9.x

The problem with .htaccess is Plesk doesn't keep the files in a standard place. There are already some 30-40 password protected directories, per domain, on this server, and just adding .htaccess and .htpasswd files doesn't work
