Cakephp ACL authentication issue - I'm locked out
- by Baseer
I've followed the CakePHP Cookbook ACL tutorial
And as of right now I'm just trying to add users using the scaffolding method. I'm trying to go to /users/add but it always redirects me to the login screen even though I have added $this->Auth->allow('*'); in beforeFilter() temporarily to allow access to all pages. I've done this in both the UsersController and GroupsController as the tutorial asked.
Below is my code for UsersController which I think will be the most relevant of all the files. Let me know if any other piece of code is required.
<?php
class UsersController extends AppController {
var $name = 'Users';
var $scaffold;
function beforeFilter() {
parent::beforeFilter();
$this->Auth->allow('*');
}
function login() {
//Auth Magic
}
function logout() {
//Leave empty for now.
}
}
?>
I think I've pretty much followed the tutorial, any ideas as to what I may be missing?
Thanks. I've been stuck on this for a while. =(
