I installed mod_auth_external for 0.8.2 on ubuntu 12.04 but it's not working. I have external_auth_command = "/home/yang/chat/testing" but it's not getting invoked. I enabled debug logging and see no messages from that mod. Any help?

I'm using the Candy example client. Here's what's written to the log after I submit a login request (and nothing in err log):

Oct 24 21:02:43 httpserver      debug   Request c295d0 left open, on_destroy is function(mod_bosh.lua:81)

Here's the config I added:

modules_enabled = {
    ...
    "bosh"; -- Enable BOSH clients, aka "Jabber over HTTP"
    ...
}

authentication = "external"
external_auth_protocol = "generic"
external_auth_command = "/home/yang/chat/testing"
