So, to get control over the authentication results for various errors such as no such username, wrong password, etc..  You can use this:

$result = $this->_auth->authenticate($adapter);

switch ($result->getCode()) {

case Zend_Auth_Result::FAILURE_IDENTITY_NOT_FOUND:

/** do stuff for nonexistent identity **/

break;

case Zend_Auth_Result::FAILURE_CREDENTIAL_INVALID:

/** do stuff for invalid credential **/

break;

case Zend_Auth_Result::SUCCESS:

/** do stuff for successful authentication **/

break;

default:

/** do stuff for other failure **/

break;

}

This actually help me realized that my login wasn’t logging in properly to begin with. I needed to check if a person was logged on or not, and I found out you can see if the visitor has an identity and you can even get it with the following commands:

Zend_Auth::getInstance()->getIdentity()

Zend_Auth::getInstance()->hasIdentity()

I kept getting the following error:

An error occurred
Application error

And that means nothing to me. I don’t know what is going on, so I found out you can set the following in your .htaccess under your public folder and then you will be able to see the stack trace which gives you a better idea of what is wrong.

SetEnv APPLICATION_ENV “development”
