Authentication and reports

August 09, 2018, 12:08:33 AM

Seems when ever you enable authentication to a project you loose the ability to use the reports page. I assume this is because the logged in user session doesn't get verified in the report controller.. is there a quick work around or do I have to resort to hand coding this into the project?

You can edit the ReportController.php and change the
BaseController to SecureController.

class ReportController extends BaseController{
   /**
   * Render All Records in a Data Table
   * @return Html View
   */
   function index(){
      $this->view->render("report/index.php" ,null,"report_layout.php");
   }
}

Hi Emman,

Thanks for the suggestion, but doesn't seem to help.

With secure login enabled and report controller changed:

Quote

<?php

/**
* Report Page Controller
* @category Controller
*/
class ReportController extends SecureController{
   /**
   * Render All Records in a Data Table
   * @return Html View
   */
   function index(){

      $this->view->render("report/index.php" ,null,"report_layout.php");
   }
}

I still have the issue of page 403 message:

any help to resolve this issue will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Please also edit the "libs/PageAccessManager.php". Add access to user roles that can access the "report".
Thanks.

Thanks Emman,

That worked for now.

Code: [Select]

'administrator' =>
						array(
							'users' => array('list','view','accountedit','accountview','userregister','add','edit','delete'),
							'report' => array('list')
						)
