Hi again,
I have managed to track back what I think the problem is but I'm
having a hard time thinking this is an issue inside Cake given the
number of users who are using the on parameter. If I add $this->id =
[the id of my user] as the first line inside cake/libs/model/model.php
in the invalidFields method the validation works as intended (i.e. if
the record already exists and on = create and required = true then the
rule is skipped, if the record exists and on = update and required =
true the rule is validate.
How I'm calling the validation from inside my controller is as
follows:
// pass the posted data into the user object
$this->User->data = $this->data;
// validate the user details
if ($this->User->validates()) {
// save the user data and redirect
if ($this->User->save($this->data)) {
$this->set("successMessage",
"Your details have been updated.");
} else {
$this->set("errorMessage",
"There was a problem updating your details, please try again
shortly.");
}
} else {
$this->validateErrors($this->User);
}
I notice the $this->User->validates() has $this->id empty but when
$this->validateErrors($this->User) is called the $this->id = is set.
I suspect I'm going about something the wrong way!
Cheers
