Hi there, I tried to implement a simple authentication using the new Auth component from CakePHP 1.2, but did not succeed. Maybe there's someone who can give me quick and dirty assistance with this?
My goal is to implement the authentication basics directly into /app/ app_controller.php rather than the users controller, as I think it could be easier then to make it "global", but any other ideas are also welcome, of course. Basically I tried this snippet that derelm pasted for me to build my authentication system: http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1369491463 ... but as I already mentioned I failed. The main problem is, of course, that I cannot log in. When trying to login it sends me directly back to the login page as given in $this- >Auth->loginAction, but as I don't know how to output the error message, I can't tell what's the problem. Maybe it's the combination of my old md5'd varchar[50] field for the password, as I don't know how the password is hashed by the component, but I don't really know. Doing a print_r on $this->Auth doesn't give me any hints too, except for the login data being posted, but nothing about the verification of it. Second problem would be, just to anticipate, that I'd had to check the user's login details in my default layout. So if you know how to talk to the auth component from there, let me know :-) Well, maybe I just need too basic details on this, but I'd really appreciate if there's someone who can help me with this :-) Thanks in advance, Arne --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
