error in chapter 8

Archives Agile Web Application Development with Yii1.1 and

My application was working in Chapter 8 but after I started playing around in the shell, I get this error when I load trackstar/index.php

Does anyone understand this?




CException


Property "CWebApplication.authManager" is read only.

Well, it’s giving you that you’re making a call somewhere in your code to try and change the value of CWebApplication.authManager - which is a read-only property of the web application.

Are you using CPhpAuthManager or CDbAuthManager?

It’s definitely worth taking a look at http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/65/how-to-setup-rbac-with-a-php-file/ if you’re using CPhpAuthmanager. Following that guide will (hopefully) mean you stop getting the read-only error.

Hope that helps

Please check your protected/config/main.php file and ensure you have defined the AuthManager WITHIN the components array and not outside of it. I.E.


// application components

	'components'=>array(

		...

    	...

	 	'authManager'=>array(

			'class'=>'CDbAuthManager',

			'connectionID'=>'db',

		 ),

     	...

if you have defined your ‘authManger’ outside of this components array, this could generate an error similar to what you are seeing.
