I've created a .htaccess and a .htpasswd file, both using my hosting's tool, uploaded them, and I get an error when I try to view the directory. Why?

my .htaccess file:

AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/u947248131/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user

in your .htaccess file is it within
<Directory /path/to/the/directory >
AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/u947248131/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user
</Directory>

Otherwise if you can put the error log that would help
