Hello,
I am a CakePHP newbie. I am implementing login features using
Authentication Component (User model). It works good. However I am
facing problem in Authorization and Statefulness features. Once I am
logged in I am unable to browse to other pages as user seems to be not
logged in.
This is my component variable in AppController:
public $components = array(
'Session',
'Auth' => array(
'loginAction' => array('controller' => 'users', 'action'
=> 'login'),
'loginRedirect' => array('controller' => 'users', 'action'
=> 'index'),
'logoutRedirect' => array('controller' => 'home', 'action'
=> 'index'),
'authError' => 'Did you really think you are allowed to
see that?',
'authenticate' => array(
'Form' => array('fields' => array('username' =>
'email', 'password' => 'password')),
'Basic' => array('userModel' => 'Users.User', 'fields'
=> array('username' => 'email', 'password' => 'password'))
),
'authorize' => array('Controller')
)
);
//AppController beforeFilter
function beforeFilter() {
$this->Auth->autoRedirect = false;
$this->Auth->userModel = 'User';
$this->Auth->allow('index', 'view');
}
//AppController isAuthorized
public function isAuthorized($user) {
if (isset($user['role']) && $user['role'] == 'admin') {
return true; //Admin can access every action
}
return false; // The rest don't
}
The user I log in has the role of "admin" set in DB. The user is able
to login properly get redirected to index and then I try to use the
edit feature in the UsersController for which he should be authorized
but apparently instead I get redirected to login page again with the
message "You are not authorized!"
I would be grateful if somebody could chime in and help or provide
pointers as to what I could be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
Anand
