I have to use loggedIn user data in view therefore creating a variable AUTH_USER in AppController
in beforeRender
function.
82 public function beforeRender(Event $event)
83 {
84 if ($this->Auth->user('id')) {
85 $this->set('AUTH_USER', $this->Auth->user());
86 }
87 ...
88 ...
89 }
Whenever there is an error, instead of displaying actual error it shows following error without style formatting
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function user() on boolean in /path_to_app/src/Controller/AppController.php:84
Stack trace: #0 /path_to_app/src/Controller/ErrorController.php(54): App\Controller\AppController->beforeRender(Object(Cake\Event\Event))

Removing line 84 - 86
displays actual error
Edit 2
code for Auth component load in AppController initialize()
I have written the following code to load the AUTH
component.
$this->loadComponent('Auth', [
'authenticate' => [
'Form' => [
'userModel' => 'Admins',
'fields' => [
'username' => 'email',
'password' => 'password'
]
]
],
'loginAction' => [
'controller' => 'Admins',
'action' => 'index'
],
'loginRedirect' => [
'controller' => 'Admins',
'action' => 'contentList'
],
'authError' => 'Did you really think you are allowed to see that?',
'logoutAction' => [
'controller' => 'Pages',
'action' => 'home'
]
]);
