Re: Strange login problem

2011/7/28 castarco <castarco@gmail.com>

Hello. I'm having strange problems with the login feature... but in a
strange way, while it runs on my local installation, it doesn't work
in the production server...

What I expect of the code: the users fill the login form, click login
and then is called the login action of users controller. If the users
are logged before, then will be redirected to their dashboard, or...
in the special case that the users are not validated (the validation
is via email) then will logout automatically (once time, during the
register process). If the login data is not correct, then the variable
$cleanLogin will set to false, and the view of users login will show
an error message.

My code works perfectly in my local installation. But in the
production server I have a "little problem", when i try to login, my
app redirects me another time to the login page (and I'm not logged
in), but without any error message (then, I suppose the login is well
done, but in some point I'm automatically logged out). The production
database is a clone of the local database.

The code of the users login function:

Anyone can imagine where is the problem? Thanks in advance!

It's very strange. I've simplified the code, now I'm using the Auth->userScope variable to avoid using my own specific validation in login. In any case, even with the simplification, the problem persists in the production server, but not in my local installation.

I've logged what occurs and it's very strange! I'll tell us:

This is a part of the login function:

$userinfo = $this->Auth->user ();

if ($userinfo) {

$this->log('YA ESTABA LOGUEADO', LOG_DEBUG);

$this->redirect($this->Auth->redirect());

} elseif (isset($this->data)) {

$this->log('SET DATA!!!...', LOG_DEBUG);

if ($this->Auth->login($this->data) == 0) {

$this->log('ME LOGUEE MAL...', LOG_DEBUG);

$this->set ('cleanLogin', false);

} else {

$this->log('ALGO RARO PASO!', LOG_DEBUG);

}

} else {

print_r ($this->params);

print_r ($this->data);

$this->log('EN LOGIN (SIN + DATOS)', LOG_DEBUG);

$this->set ('cleanLogin', true);

}

the strange thing: when the login is whith incorrect data, then enters in the 'elseif' statement, but when the data is correct... enters in the 'else' statement! Cake thinks that the $this->data variable is not defined!!! Anyone knows why?

Thanks in advance.
