The most basic is that it fails a majority of the install tests. I went ahead and installed the AuthCookie, just to see if I had the same issues with an actual install. I did.
When running, it seems to have the hooks setup OK, as I can watch them work via /var/log/httpd/error_log. When I try to access the protected page, the login.pl runs and displays the login page (as expected), but it then displays this html:
<html><head>
<title>403 Forbidden</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Forbidden</h1>
<p>You don't have permission to access /my/docroot/get_me.html
on this server.</p>
<p>Additionally, a 200 OK
error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.</p>
<hr />
<address>Apache/2.0.49 (Fedora) Server at localhost Port 80</address> </body></html>
This is the cause of many of the test's failing, as the tests compare pre-created output to the AuthCookies's output, and my output has this extra HTML (above) also being displayed. I still haven't discovered why this extra HTML is added to the end output of login.pl. There are other issues, but this is the showstopper right now. Maybe some redirection isnn't working properly (a guess)?
Below is output from the httpd's error_log:
[Sun Jan 23 12:05:05 2005] [notice] Apache/2.0.49 (Fedora) configured -- resuming normal operations

Then, after I try to login, here are the additional lines in error_log:

It never authenticates (although it does call all the perl routines).
Any help with this is appreciated. I'll gladly supply more info if it can help me solve this.
