Cakephp 2.x Admin Login not working,login redirect as well

Question

I have done admin routing for my admin panel. Right now the url is localhost/app/admin.

Now I have 2 Tables Admins and Users.

I have created an url for the login localhost/app/admin/admins/login.

The page prompts for a username and a password.

But the Problem is when create component in appcontroller with loginredirect it is redirected to localhost/app/admin/users/login.I don't know why. I even tried changing the loginredirect path but it's nothing worked.

This is my appcontroller.php :

public $components = array(
    'Session',
    'Auth' => array(
        'loginRedirect' => array('controller' => 'admins', 'action' => 'add'),
        'logoutRedirect' => array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'display', 'home')
    )
);

public function beforeFilter() {
    $this->Auth->allow('index', 'view');
}

Even if I delete the user table, it redirects to the users login.

It sounds like your Auth component isn't working. instead of adding the auth redirects into the components variable, put them in your beforeFilter(). Your appController should be:

    public $components = array('Auth','Session');

    public function beforeFilter()
{
    $this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('action' => 'add', 'controller' => 'admins');
    $this->Auth->logoutRedirect = array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'display', 'home');
    $this->Auth->authError = 'You are not allowed to see that.';

}

Are you logging in successfully? if so, check routes.php to make sure you're routing things correctly. this could be tested by trying to navigat to example.com/admins/add manually.
