I tried to recreate your error message and when I removed "AuthBSDGroup
auth" in httpd.conf, I got the exact error you mention. So it is
possible that this is the cause for your error message.
The README file in /usr/local/share/doc/mod_auth_bsd explicitly mentions
this point and states that you should have something like:
AuthBSDGroup auth
<Directory /var/www/vhosts/foo/login>
SSLRequireSSL # required by default
AuthType Basic # only HTTP Basic supported
AuthName "Foo Login"
AuthBSD On
Require valid-user # restrict to system accounts
</Directory>
Hope this helps,
Vijay
