Hi,
This is a slightly complicated case related (I think) to the guts of
CakePHP. This is what I have:
1. A controller (Users) that uses Cookie as a component
2. There is a method in Users that uses the Cookie component to write
a cookie
3. Another controller (MyAccount) non related to the Users controller
4. A method in MyAccount that app:imports the users controller and
executes the method that uses the cookie (I'm using contructClasses in
case you're wondering)
Having this, I'm getting an error (from Security:cipher()) saying that
the 'key' is empty, this key refers directly to the key value of the
Cookie component. (Warning (512): You cannot use an empty key for
Security::cipher() [ROOT\cake\libs\security.php, line 174]).
Debugging, I confirmed that this key is not set for Cookie.
Reviewing cakephp's guts, I found that:
1. Obviously the key is taken from the configuration security.salt key
2. The key is supposed to be set when Cookie::initialize($controller,
$settings) is executed.
3. The component is not being initialized when I call App::import
('Controller','Users'), (having Cookie defined in the array of
UsersController class).
I could have fixed it defining manually the key everywhere I use it
($Users->Cookie->key = Configure::read('Security.salt')), but that
looks really bad :S.
I patched the component.php file from the cake/libs/controller/, but I
want to know if anybody has found this issue, or if I'm doing
something wrong.
Thanks!
