I actually tried that, but the key is that my username = primaryKey =
email. For whatever reason, that just didn't work for me (it certainly
could have been a misconfiguration on my part). Once I dropped a more
conventional id field in there and used email just for the username
everything worked okay.

Re: Updating a User Record
Then you just need to set the model and tell it what the primary key
is:
$primaryKey = "email";
Then $this->Administrator->id would be the the email.
You might also need to set the Auth fields to match (I do this in my
App controller's beforeFilter):
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'user_name',
'password' => 'user_password');

The latter is what I've already done, so I guess I'll add an id field and move on. -- Rob Wilkerson http://robwilkerson.org --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Re: Updating a User Record
Well its easiest to have an id field. But your right, you would set the primary key. And if that breaks auth, change the fields for the auth. http://book.cakephp.org/view/390/fields --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Therein, as they say, lies the rub. I don't have an id field in my
administrators table. I use email for the Auth username and that's
also the primary key on the table. I've already tried setting
$this->Administrator->email, but Cake didn't handle it as a primary
key and tried to insert the record. I tried telling the model that the
email field was it's $primaryKey, but that screwed up authentication.
Am I trying to push the envelope too far? Sounds like I can make all
of this work out by adding a "traditional" primary key so is that the
right way to go (read: the way I should've gone in the first place)?
Thanks again.

Re: Updating a User Record
You have to set the id first, in your case it might be:
$this->Administrator->id = $this->Auth->user('id');
$this->Administrator->save($data);
