Greetings,
I'm new to Model Glue, have been working with it for a month or
so,have generally been lost but can appreciate it's strengths. We are
currently trying to setup Authentication by using Event Types. Dan
Wilson gave me some hints, and directed me to this group for some
additional help with my problem. Here's a quick run-down that I sent
to him that explains where I'm trying to go with this, and what is
happening. If anyone could help me to figure this out, I'd greatly
appreciate it..
I've further included my modelglue.xml, controller.cfc and login.cfm
that I'm using to make this work.
Thanks in Advance,
Clifford Moon
I've setup the secure event type, with it broadcasting the message
needsAuthenticatedUser, which tests for a session variable being set
to true. If it's not set to true, I used the event.forward and send
it to the "login" event handler which dumps the login.cfm form. I've
set the submit on that form to be checkAuthentication which is another
event, which broadcasts checkAuthentication which executes
checkAuthentication inside the controller.cfc. That then tests
against a temporary username and password "1" and "2" and if they are
true, I set the session variable to true, otherwise, use the
event.forward to again send them to the login page.
I know this is partially working because I can do a run through, and
it's correctly setting the session variable to true as it's supposed
to, and when I call my "secure" event (security is what I called it),
it doesn't display the login form, but rather goes ahead and dumps my
form that I want to make secure.
My quandary is this: When I call my app, passing in the
"event=security" to use the "secure" event-type, and I authenticate
correctly, I'm winding back up at my checkAuthentication event (and
subsequently a blank page), rather than it passing it back to the
"event=security" and me seeing my form. Somewhere, I'm missing a
step.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Cliff
