I'm having difficulty getting Basic authentication done with mod_auth_radius

As the docs say, I'm getting an Internal Error 500 with apache when I
try to authenticate.  The apache error is:

[Thu Aug 31 14:28:45 2006] [crit] [client 192.168.2.147] configuration
error:  couldn't check user.  No user file?: /
[Thu Aug 31 14:28:45 2006] [crit] [client 192.168.2.147] configuration
error:  couldn't check user.  No user file?: /favicon.ico
[Thu Aug 31 14:28:53 2006] [crit] [client 192.168.2.147] configuration
error:  couldn't check user.  No user file?: /

Here is the http conf directives used:

<IfModule mod_auth_radius.c>

AddRadiusAuth 127.0.0.1:1812 testing123 5:3

AddRadiusCookieValid 5

</IfModule>


<Location /calendars/>

    AllowOverride None
    Options None

    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "Calendars"
#    AuthAuthoritative Off
    AuthRadiusAuthoritative On
    AuthRadiusCookieValid 5
    AuthRadiusActive On
	<Limit GET HEAD OPTIONS>
        require valid-user
    </Limit>

    </Location>

Running radiusd -X, I do not get any response at the radius server at
all when it appears that apache is supposed to send the radius packet.
 So that leadds me to believe that the apache server does not have an
authoritative authentication mechanism like in the docs?

Is there something I should be looking for?  Any direction you can
help with would be great.

Thanks!
