1.1 .. when was this app originally built? You should definitely not
upgrade your cake version to anything other than 1.1.x.
PHP 5.2.8 is not the same as php 5.3, I'm guessing that means you
installed wamp - which with 1.1 will almost certainly not work without
tweaks.
Cakephp is still php - meaning it's php files you can edit and put
things like debug('here'); in it (it's worrying that the concept of
debugging code seems alien).
Your main question seems to be "why does my own code redirect me with
certain input" - so why not override the redirect method and find out?
meaning:
function redirect($url, $status, $exit) {
$this->log($url, 'aname');
$this->log($this->here, 'aname');
$this->log($this->data, 'aname');
$this->log($_POST, 'aname'); // should be ~identical to $this->data
$this->log(debug_backtrace(), 'aname');
//return parent::redirect($url, $status, $exit);
debug(__FILE__.':'.__LINE__); // <- move or copy to anywhere you want
die(__FILE__.':'.__LINE__);
}
Also, why rent another server, instead of just copying your app setup
in its entirety into a (protected with a password if you want)
subfolder of your app webroot and test away yourself?
meaning:
app
webroot
testing
app
app_controller.php <- with debug code in it
...
cake
http://mysever.com/testing/ <- your 'personal' debugging space.
