i have routes set up to display the splash page home.ctp after
successful login.
so should it be $this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller' =>
'pages', 'action' => 'home'); ??
i don't have a controller named home, just the home.ctp from cake's
default. i just picked up
this loginRedirect thing from another tutorial.

so sorry about those comments. those were notes for me, as i grapple
on how to
make this Acl/Auth component work. i forgot to erase them before
posting.

there was nothing wrong with web host configurations.
i also tried your foo and bar functions. i did not see the same
problem, so i suspected that it was coming from Auth.
when i turned it off (not use loginRedirect), the repeated URL after
login was gone.
so i thought there was really an issue with cake's loginRedirect. i
googled some more and i found this thread.
http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/1e4b2be656586591/4c672237428cc978?lnk=gst&q=loginRedirect#4c672237428cc978
i was just so relieved to find out that others were experiencing the
same thing -- because it was beyond my skills to trace where that
weird URL was coming from.
anyway, thanks again for your help. your clarification on
allow(..., ...) and allowedActions = array(..., ..., ... ) also
explained the erratic behavior of some of my unauthorized pages
because i used them interchangeably in app_controller,
users_controller and groups_controller, not understanding the
difference.

The plot thickens. What's this controller for? And why do you not
specify an action? Do you have any routes set up for it?

The first is a class method to set the class variable (the second, above).

$auth, in this case, is simply a variable set for the view and isn't
"built in". It looks like whoever wrote the tutorial wanted to have
access to the User info while in the view. But that can be done with:
$this->Session->read('Auth.User.x');
(where x is the User field you're after)

Right. I'd forgotten to cover that. You can leave the top 2 index.php
files as they are. If things are working correctly, they'll never be
read. The one in app/webroot looks correct.
I don't know which config.php you're referring to, sorry.

Hey, thanks for that. I'm always happy to learn a few words in another

Try commenting all of that out for now. Just leave login() as an empty method.

__FILE__ means the current filename, and dirname() returns the
directory part of the path. So it amounts to the same thing. Better to
leave it as is.

The easiest way is probably with the Firebug or LiveHTTPHeaders
plugins for Firefox.

Actually, I meant, app/webroot, but anyway ...
It depends on what your DocumentRoot is set to for Apache. It looks
like yours is:
/var/www/web2/web/
But, because you do have the .htaccess file in that dir, you shouldn't
need to supply 'app/' in the URL to get a proper Cake request from
Apache. When you request http://abc.domain.com/ Apache should look at
the .htaccess file in that dir and following the rewrite rule pointing
it instead to app/webroot/index.php. It should do the same if
requesting http://abc.domain.com/app (notice those two .htaccess files
both point the request to app/webroot/index.php)
If you can edit your httpd.conf or virtual host configs, the best
thing to do is to set DocumentRoot to:
/var/www/web2/web/app/webroot
If you can do that, for performance benefits, you should also remove
(or rename) all of the .htaccess files and add both "AllowOverride
None" (to tell Apache to ignore .htaccess) and the contents of
app/webroot/.htaccess to the block in your Apache config.
Putting it all together:
DocumentRoot /var/www/web2/web/app/webroot
AllowOverride None
DirectoryIndex index.php
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
(There's other stuff you'll need that has nothing to do with this
subject, though.)
Now, any request to http://abc.domain.com/ will go to index.php by
default. Anything else you place under webroot (javascript, css, html,
images, whatever) will be served normally, as long as Apache can see
it.
The only downside to doing this is if you've got other stuff in your
DocumentRoot (stats, logs, other shared hosting stuff). If that's the
case, you can deal with it through addition of some RewriteRules in
your config, but that's beyond the scope of this post (I have to get
back to work).
(hint: if possible, set up subdomains for your stats, PHPMySQLAdmin, etc.)
Now, whether that will fix your problem, I don't know. It's been years
since I really got my hands dirty with mod_rewrite and I couldn't say
what's going on with your situation. Is this a shared hosting
environment? I'm wondering if there's something else configured that's
hidden from you. You mentioned that you're only seeing this upon
login. But, what about if you call redirect() in some o
