I have attempted to build a .htpasswd file as a well as a .htaccess file and place it in my directory as needed, but I can't seem to figure out what I am doing wrong here. Whatever I have tried, I get redirected to an "Internal Server Error"
You'll need to login using SFTP to be able to access your error log.

In the .htpasswd file, you need to put the hashed version of your password, generated using the script that you referenced -- if your password is QhW7Fhhanc0NY, it would be different than QhW7Fhhanc0NY.

After that, you must put .htaccess into the folder you wish to protect. In my case, I put it into "public" (gafoob/public)
You can view what that looks like here: http://gyazo.com/e6272b6599e4e32ec9f075dc989b75d2
my .htpasswd and .htaccess were left the same and both files were already correct to begin with.
