Question

I am using the Cake’s inbuilt auth module . Everything is working fine on my production environment . However on my local environment , I am not able to login .
I traced out that the problem is because the sessions seems to get reset on every redirect . As a result of which cake is not able to find one of it’s array ( Config) in the session variable .
I have tried setting the security level to medium/low , but to no use .

Please help.

This is what my session object looks like :

SessionComponent Object
(
    [__active] => 1
    [__started] => 1
    [__bare] => 0
    [valid] => 1
    [error] => Array
        (
            [2] => Config doesn't exist

            [1] => Session is valid
        )

    [_userAgent] => 
    [path] => /
    [lastError] => 1
    [security] => low
    [time] => 1278498179
    [sessionTime] => 1282098179

    [watchKeys] => Array
        (
        )

    [id] => 
    [_log] => 
    [host] => localhost
    [enabled] => 1
    [cookieLifeTime] => 788940000
)

Ok . I solved it . It had to do with the permissions of my folders on the local environment .
