Got this strange little error messages while generating a htaccess password:
htpasswd: could not determine temp dir
Thank god for google. A search for the exact string brought only two pages of hits, but this one had the answer.
Even better, I have no idea what apr is or why it was causing the problem, but up2date is already a black box convenience in my mind, so all I had to do was nudge “apr” into that same realm and let #up2date apr loose on a production machine. The problem was immediately fixed.
