I guess in your view you have to pass in the id (echo $this->Form->input('id');). This should include a hidden id field. I wonder why it works the first time (without leaving a field blank). Are you sure the user gets edited and not a new user created? Because when you save $this->request->data, the data shouldn't contain the id if you didn't pass it from the view!

Hi,

I am trying to setup an Edit User authentication action. I have authentication working fine for adding a user but when i try to edit a user i am running into a problem.

If i try to edit a user when all information supplied passes validation it works fine (URL: http://localhost/users/edit/3). If however i leave a textfield blank when i am validating it against 'notEmpty' the first time i hit the form submit button it works as expected and reloads the edit user page with the validation error displayed (URL: http://localhost/users/edit/3). If i do nothing and try to submit the form again with the blank textfield i now get redirected to http://localhost/users/edit with an Invalid User message "*Error: * The requested address *'/users/edit'* was not found on this server."

<!-- app/Controller/UsersController.php -->
 public function edit($id = null) {
        $this->User->id = $id;
        if (!$this->User->exists()) {
            throw new NotFoundException(__('Invalid user'));
        }
        if ($this->request->is('post') || $this->request->is('put')) {
            if ($this->User->save($this->request->data)) {
                $this->Session->setFlash(__('The user has been saved'));
                $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
            } else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The user could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
            }
        } else {
            $this->request->data = $this->User->read(null, $id);
        }
    }



<!-- view/users/edit.ctp -->
<div class="users form">
<?php echo $this->Form->create('User', array('action' => 'edit'));?>
<fieldset>
<legend><?php echo __('Edit User'); ?></legend>
<?php
echo $this->Session->flash();
echo $this->Form->input('firstname', array('label' => 'First Name'));
echo $this->Form->input('secondname', array('label' => 'Second Name'));
echo $this->Form->input('address_01', array('label' => 'Address Line 1'));
echo $this->Form->input('address_02', array('label' => 'Address Line 2'));
echo $this->Form->input('address_03', array('label' => 'Address Line 3'));
echo $this->Form->input('address_04', array('label' => 'Address Line 4'));
echo $this->Form->input('tel_01', array('label' => 'Telephone'));
echo $this->Form->input('email');
echo $this->Form->hidden('role', array('value' => 'customer'));
?>
</fieldset>
<?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit'));?>
</div>
<div class="actions">
<h5><?php echo __('Actions'); ?></h5>
<ul>

<li><?php echo $this->Html->link(__('List Users'), array('action' => 'index'));?></li>
</ul>
</div>



Does anyone know why i am getting redirected on the second submit?

Thanks!
