Re: Error on adding user with Auth component on

The $components variable has a default value which includes Session.
When you define that variable in your controller you lose this default
value, and Session becomes inaccessible. To be able to access the
session again you have to add it yourself to the component list:

var $components = array ('Session', 'Auth');
