I used the "Using a traditional login form" tutorial from symfony.com to authentificate my users. With a simple http auth it works great.
After the login was submitted I get this Exception:
Unable to find the controller for path "/login_check". Maybe you forgot to add the matching route in your routing configuration?
Well, in the tutorial I read:
You will not need to implement a controller for the /login_check URL as the firewall will automatically catch and process any form submitted to this URL.
I defined the routes and set the firewall settings:
security.yml
firewalls:
dev:
pattern: ^/(_(profiler|wdt)|css|images|js)/
security: false
backend:
pattern: ^/backend
anonymous: ~
form_login:
provider: entity
login_path: /login
check_path: /login_check
#use_forward: true
logout:
path: /logout
target: /
routing.yml
login:
pattern: /login
defaults: { _controller: VitaSecurityBundle:Default:login }
login_check:
pattern: /login_check
logout:
pattern: /logout
The problem you are having is described here:
See http://symfony.com/doc/current/book/security.html, section "Avoid Common Pitfalls"
- Be sure
/login_check
is behind a firewall Next, make sure that your check_path URL (e.g. /login_check) is behind the firewall you're using for your form login (in this example, the single firewall matches all URLs, including /login_check). If /login_check doesn't match any firewall, you'll receive a Unable to find the controller for path "/login_check" exception.
In this example, your pattern specifies a prefix of /backend for secured paths. To work, your login check should be behind this same firewall.
So, to match the pattern which you have specified in your firewall, put login_check on a url path like this: /backend/login_check
