I'm using Symfony 2.7 and I'm having trouble logging users. I use Custom Entity and I have created a custom entity "Operator" with proper variables and methods. I use two login methods in security file. One is in_memory
and I use it for admin login which works correctly and the other one is user_db
. I use bcrypt algorithm to encrypt the passwords. When I try to log in a user, it displays "Invalid credentials" message. What am I doing wrong? Thank you!
security.yml
security:
encoders:
Symfony\Component\Security\Core\User\User: plaintext
Application\AdminBundle\Entity\Operator:
algorithm: bcrypt
providers:
chain_provider:
chain:
providers: [ in_memory, user_db ]
user_db:
entity:
class: ApplicationAdminBundle:Operator
property: username
SecurityController.php
<?php
namespace Application\AdminBundle\Controller;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\Controller;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
class SecurityController extends Controller
{
/**
* @Route("/login", name="login")
*/
public function loginAction(Request $request)
{
$authenticationUtils = $this->get('security.authentication_utils');
$error = $authenticationUtils->getLastAuthenticationError();
return $this->render('ApplicationAdminBundle:security:login.html.twig',
array(
'error' => $error,
)
);
}
/**
* @Route("/login_check", name="login_check")
*/
public function loginCheckAction()
{
}
}
"Operator" Entity and setPassword(), getPassword() methods
public function setPassword($password)
{
$this->password = password_hash ($password, PASSWORD_BCRYPT);
return $this;
}
/**
* Get password
*
* @return string
*/
public function getPassword()
{
return $this->password;
}
Solution:
All I had done wrong was the database table because the I had set the password field as varchar(25)
and the hashed password could not be fully inserted. I changed it to varchar(255)
and everything is ok now. Every user can now login.
