Ok, I found the remaining issues:
1) Mythweb was moved from /var/www to /var/www/html during the upgrade. But
the old one was left in place. That lead to a lot of confusion on my part.
I changed the myweb.conf file to use /var/www/html path in a couple places
and it executed the digest file. Then I could not login.
2) I had the wrong realm specified in the digest command. I found this in
the apache error log. I added my user to the same realm as in the config
file and all is well.

Thanks again!
