Re: Simplest usage of the new Auth component?
Hi Sean,
I got it working now. The only thing that avoided the whole site from
working is the buggy allow() function. You must not put login and
logout into allow() to get auth working.
But thanks anyway, any help is getting one further in learning things,
right? :-)

Re: Simplest usage of the new Auth component?
Arne,
You don't have to use the Acl component, I was just playing around
with various things and forgot to take it out :) (I'm just picking up
CakePHP myself)
If you don't have $this->Auth available, make sure you're using Auth
in app_controller.php

Hi again,
and sorry, I didnt answer your questions at all.
Yes, I made sure I had configured the right fields and salt is nulled
('') too.
Best regards

Re: Simplest usage of the new Auth component?
Hi Sean,
thanks for pasting it, but there's only one single issue that doesn't
match your config at all: You're using the Acl component... do I
_have_ to use Acl too? I though I could use it without Acl only using
the table data and such, so I did not work with Acl at all.
I did a bit debugging though and found that my users_controller->login
function doesnt have $this->Auth->user() available.
if ($this->Auth->user()) { ... } else { debug("no auth->user :-(") }
gives me the debug message, so for some reason I don't have access to
this what seems to be the point. Did I forget something?
Best regards

That's probably because the authentication is failing, or not being
checked.
Remember I don't use username and password, I use email and password.
So make sure that in app_controller.php where I have
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'email', 'password' =>
'password');
you have
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'username', 'password' =>
'password');
Did you also null out your salt in config.php?
I posted my code (login.ctp and users_controller.php) to
http://pastebin.ca/767192

Re: Simplest usage of the new Auth component?
Hi Sean,
it doesn't work the way you posted it, except for me. But I assume it
could also be something with my login view, so could you please post
an example of a working view for this?
Atm I'm doing the following:
// /app/views/users/login.ctp
create('User', array('action' => 'login'));
echo $form->input('username');
echo $form->input('password');
echo $form->submit(__('do_login', true));
echo $form->end();
?>
// end
But when submitting the form, it redirects me back to the login, pre-
filling the password field with 32 chars (assume it's the md5 hash,
but why?).
Thanks in advance,
Arne

Re: Simplest usage of the new Auth component?
I've been having similar problems myself but just haven't taken the
time to look into what's going on.
In my scenario I'm able to login and the Auth component authenticates
me but does not redirect me to the redirectLogin value. After
submitting my information I end up on the login page still, and if I
manually type in an application URL I am able to access the
application no problem.
Like I said I haven't looked into this because I know this is Alpha..
Beta.. whatever and it's not stopping me from moving forward with
other development, but I have a feeling there might be a problem in
the redirect logic??
Also another scenario I will have autoRedirect = true and on the first
submission of the login page I will just end up at the login page
again. If I re-enter my credentials and submit a second time I will
be forwarded to the URL I was requesting previously.

Re: Simplest usage of the new Auth component?
The Auth is using the sha1 (by default) for hashing. It combines you
Security.salt value and your password and hash using sha1. You can
change the hashing I think (not sure, I haven't check in the code for
a while).

Re: Simplest usage of the new Auth component?
I am having troubles with Auth component too (but after the login
step). My code is very similar, except that I'm using in
AppController:
function isAuthorized() {
// This should authorize any controller/action, even if I'm not
logged in, right?
return true;
}
But when I try to access to any controller/action I'm being redirected
to users/login.
Thanks in advance!
