I'm having a problem with reading cookies on localhost, using MAMP and Codeigniter.
I'm trying to ude a cookie to authenticate acess to an admin area. I can set the cookie (I see it on my browser - Chrome) but i'm not able to read it after doing that to grant the acess. I've already tried lots of configurations, but none works. I really need some help on this.
Those are the essencial parts of my code:
Here I set the cookie
$cookie = array(
'name' => 'login',
'value' => 'true',
'expire' => '0',
'secure' => TRUE
);
set_cookie($cookie);
Here I redirect the user to login page if there is no cookie and to control panel if the cookie is set
function login_redirect() {
$this->load->helper('cookie');
if (uri_string() == 'admin/controlpanel') {
if ($this->input->cookie('login')) {
} else {
redirect('admin/');
}
}
if (uri_string() == 'admin') {
if ($this->input->cookie('login')) {
redirect('admin/controlpanel');
}
}
}
OBS: all this code is in the admin_model
Any tips?
Thanks and sorry about my english. I hope I've made myself clear.
