This is what my form looks like:
<?php echo $form->create('User',array('action' => 'login')); ?>
<fieldset class="form">
<?php echo $form->error('User.username'); ?>
<?php echo $form->input('User.username',
array('label'=>'Username') ); ?>
<?php echo $form->error('User.passwd'); ?>
<?php echo $form->input('User.passwd', array('label'=>'Password') ); ?
>
<?php echo $form->submit('Submit', array('class' => 'submit')); ?>
</fieldset>
</form>
I don't name my field to be password, because that causes problems
with MySQL, so I name it passwd instead. Maybe that is your problem?
And your login() function in the UsersController is empty, right?
