I'm making progress. I actually got a usable UI to appear at mysite.com/acm
It had some errors about missing tables, and then missing fields. I took wild guesses that the missing fields should be varchar 32 to see what would happen. Once I stopped getting errors, I tried adding the code below to posts_controller.php (this is the blog tutorial controller). But now I'm getting a php error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: _checkaccess() in /var/www/vhosts/chriskausel.com/httpdocs/app/controllers/posts_controller.php on line 12 And here's the code, lifted straight from the documentation. I'm not sure if I was supposed to change anything or not. var $components = array('Acl'); var $beforeFilter = array('checkAcl'); function checkAcl() { $aco = $this->name . ":" . $this->action; if($this->_checkAccess($this->Session->read('User.username'), $aco)) { return; } else { //Not Allowed Action } } --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
