I recently had a problem very similar to this, but it may not have
been the same. Anyway, here's my explanation and solution:
AuthComponent was not creating an instance of AclComponent to use at
AuthComponent::$Acl.
To fix this I added the following function to AppController:
function _initAuthAcl() {
if (!isset($this->Auth->Acl)) {
$this->Auth->Acl =& $this->Acl;
}
}
And call it from AppController::beforeFilter():
function beforeFilter() {
/* AuthComponent configuration */
$this->_initAuthAcl();
}
And finally when you're overriding a callback don't forget to call the
original. So, in your normal controllers:
function beforeFilter() {
parent:beforeFilter();
$this->Auth->allow('add', 'index', 'login','logout');
}
This solution was very specific to my problem, but I hope it helps.
