user register page not authorized

[skywalkerx86]

trying to access the register page throws "You are not authorized to access that location." error and redirects to login.
This happens on a fresh install as soon as I extend the users entity/table/controller and set them to be used in the users config.
Following the extending the plugin documentation, even with no model overrides on the MyUsers entity and the my_users table in my database is an exact copy of the users table

Controller/MyUsersController.php

namespace App\Controller;

use App\Controller\AppController;
use App\Model\Table\MyUsersTable;
use Cake\Event\Event;
use CakeDC\Users\Controller\Component\UsersAuthComponent;
use CakeDC\Users\Controller\Traits\LoginTrait;
use CakeDC\Users\Controller\Traits\RegisterTrait;

class MyUsersController extends AppController
{
    use LoginTrait;
    use RegisterTrait;

//add your new actions, override, etc here
}

Model/Entity/MyUser.php

namespace App\Model\Entity;

use CakeDC\Users\Model\Entity\User;

/**
 * Application specific User Entity with non plugin conform field(s)
 */
class MyUser extends User
{
    /**
     * Map CakeDC's User.active field to User.is_active when getting
     *
     * @return mixed The value of the mapped property.
     */
    /*protected function _getActive()
    {
        return $this->_properties['is_active'];
    }*/

    /**
     * Map CakeDC's User.active field to User.is_active when setting
     *
     * @param mixed $value The value to set.
     * @return static
     */
    /*protected function _setActive($value)
    {
        $this->set('is_active', $value);
        return $value;
    }*/
}

Model/Table/MyUsersTable.php
namespace App\Model\Table;

use CakeDC\Users\Model\Table\UsersTable;

/**
 * Application specific Users Table with non plugin conform field(s)
 */
class MyUsersTable extends UsersTable
{
}

users.php config chunk (copied the config file from the plugin and only changed these 2 items)

$config = [
    'Users' => [
        // Table used to manage users
        'table' => 'MyUsers',
        // Controller used to manage users plugin features & actions
        'controller' => 'MyUsers',

Please paste your bootstrap.php code to load the plugin and permissions.php file. Thanks,

Hi skywalkerx86,

did you solve this issue? How?
I have the same problem and would appreciate if you could point out what worked for you.

Thanks,

Sorry, I don't think I ever sorted this out.

I had a similar issue when starting with this, the only solution I found was to extend the CakeDC classes directly. So instead of MyUserController extends AppController, I used MyUserController extends CakeDCUserController (with an appropriate use statement for the alias).

@skywalkerx86 @niel is this still an issue in current versions?

I have no idea, as I'm not using the current versions in anything.
