Can not login the web interface on Nagios Core 4.2

Hello Guys,

Recently I installed the Nagios Core 4.2 on CentOS 6.6 to monitor my system, but after performed all of the steps in the doc, https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... Source.pdf

I'm not able to login the web interface http://x.x.x.x/nagios. Here is the error message prompted on the web browser,

========================
Authorization Required

This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser doesn't understand how to supply the credentials required.
Apache/2.2.15 (CentOS) Server at x.x.x.x Port 80
========================

And I'm 100% sure that I'm typing the correct password and I even tried to add more users with simple password but got the same issue.

Do you guys have any idea or any workaround can fix this issue? Much appreciated!

What happens if you run chmod 644 /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users? The permissions look off, and I think apache might not be able to read it.
