Set debug to 2 so that you can at least see if Auth is correctly
querying the DB. Also, you can check the session to see if you've been
logged in. Add this to AppController::beforeFilter():
$this->Auth->autoRedirect = false;
It's true by default. This tells Cake that you want to put further
logic in your login() method.
public function login()
{
if (!empty($this->data))
{
die(debug($this->Auth->user()));
}
}

Yes, the hashed password is one of the more annoying, and confusing,
things about Cake for me. I still don't completely understand what is
the proper way to deal with that. All I know is that I don't have the
problem anymore. What did I do to fix it? Beats me.
For one app where I'm using a non-standard model for "User" I have the
following in AppController:
function beforeFilter()
{
$this->Auth->userModel = 'Member';
$this->Auth->authorize = 'controller';
$this->Auth->fields = array(
'username' => 'email',
'password' => 'password'
);
$this->Auth->loginAction = array(
'controller' => 'members',
'action' => 'login'
);
$this->Auth->loginRedirect = array(
'controller' => 'pages',
'action' => 'display',
'home'
);
$this->Auth->logoutRedirect = array(
'controller' => 'pages',
'action' => 'display',
'home'
);
$this->Auth->autoRedirect = false;
$this->Auth->loginError = 'No matching user found.';
if (!$this->Session->read('Member'))
{
$this->Auth->authError = 'Please log in';
}
}
Member::login() contains some further logic, which is why I have
autoRedirect set to false.
public function login()
{
if (!empty($this->data) && $member = $this->Auth->user())
{
$expiration = strtotime($member['Member']['expiration']);
/* change redirect if admin
*/
if (isset($member['Member']['admin']) &&
$member['Member']['admin'])
{
$this->redirect(array(
'admin' => 1,
'controller' => 'pages',
'action' => 'display',
'admin_index'
));
}
else if ($expiration < strtotime('now'))
{
$this->Auth->logout();
$this->flash(
'Your membership has expired.',
array('action' => 'renew_expired'),
'flash_expiration'
);
}
else if ($expiration < strtotime('+14 days'))
{
$this->flash(
'Your membership will expire '. date('l, F j,
Y', $expiration),
null,
'flash_expiration'
);
}
$this->redirect($this->Auth->redirect());
}
}
Note that I have a custom flash() method in AppController.
Anyway, the login view uses my custom fields for the form elements.
<tr>
<th><?= $form->label('Member.email', 'Email') ?></th>
<td><?= $form->input('Member.email', array('label' => false)) ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th><?= $form->label('Member.password', 'Password') ?></th>
<td><?= $form->input('Member.password', array('value' => '', 'label'
=> false)) ?>
</tr>
So, it's a slightly different setup than yours but maybe you can find
something in there that will point to what's going wrong with your
app. But, first, I'd ensure that Auth is actually querying the DB and
also that your credentials are correct.
