CakePHP Auth Deny Admin Routing Pages

I have been reading Stack Overflow questions all aftern开发者_运维问答oon trying to figure this out..

I have a users controller with index/login/logout/register functions but also has admin_index/admin_add/admin_edit/admin_delete etc.

I have Auth component enabled and in my users_controller i am trying to deny access to the admin_* pages if the Auth.User.role != 'admin', when i enable the $this->Auth->authorize = 'controller'; it denies access to the site.com/admin/users/ page and also seems to kill the logout function even tho my account has the role set to admin.

However if i type the url in i get redirected back to the main homepage.

users_controller.php

<?php
class UsersController extends AppController {

    var $name = 'Users';

    function beforeFilter(){
        parent::beforeFilter();
        $this->Auth->authorize = 'controller';
        $this->Auth->allow('register');
    }

    function isAuthorized() {
        if ($this->Auth->user('role') != 'admin') {
            $this->Auth->deny('admin_index','admin_view', 'admin_add', 'admin_edit','admin_delete');
        }
    }

app_controller.php

<?php
class AppController extends Controller {

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

    function beforeFilter() {
        $this->Auth->loginAction = array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'login', 'admin'=>false);
        $this->Auth->logoutRedirect = array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'logout');
        $this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller'=>'shows', 'action'=>'index');
        $this->Auth->autoRedirect = false;
        $this->Auth->allow('home');
    }

My Second question relates to the way $this->Auth->deny('page'); redirects the user, as far as i can tell it redirects to / but i need it to redirect back to the users controller.

Hope it all makes sense and i have provided enough info..

The root of your problem is probably your isAuthorized() method. This should simply return true or false, and indicates whether an authenticated user is AUTHORIZED to access a particular action.

It's difficult to say why you'd be redirected to the home page instead of the login page. But it's possible that you have other code somewhere that's messing things up.

Try modifying your code as below and see if that doesn't help get things working:

app_controller.php

<?php 
class AppController extends Controller {
    var $components = array('Session', 'Auth' => array(
        'loginAction' => array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'login', 'admin'=>false),
        'logoutRedirect' => array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'logout'),
        'loginRedirect' => array('controller'=>'shows', 'action'=>'index'),
        'autoRedirect' => false,
        'authorize' => 'controller'
    );

function beforeFilter() {
    $this->Auth->allow('home');
}

function isAuthorized() {
    if (!empty($this->params['prefix']) && $this->params['prefix'] == 'admin') {
        if ($this->Auth->user('role') != 'admin') {
            return false;
        }
    }
    return true;
}
?>

users_controller.php

<?php
class UsersController extends AppController {

var $name = 'Users';

function beforeFilter(){
    parent::beforeFilter();
    $this->Auth->allow('register');
}
?>

I moved all the Auth settings to the declaration in the $components variable because it seems cleaner and to make more sense to declare default values there. But this is more a matter of personal preference and it shouldn't have a real effect on the code's functioning.

Also, note that if you set autoRedirect to false, you'll have to redirect logged-in users manually in your Users::login() action, getting the loginRedirect value with $this->Auth->redirect().

I don't see any reason why you should be sent to / when you're not logged in and you try to access a blocked action, but maybe it will be easier to figure out after you fix the above. **

you should do this like...

       function beforeFilter()
        {
        if($this->Auth->user('role')=='admin'){
         $this->Auth->allow('admin_view','admin_controls');//put your all admin actions separated by comma

         }
else
{
$this->Auth->allow('home');//put your all non-admin actions separated by comma
}


    }

hope it will work... if any problem let me know....
