cakephp line by line debugger?

Does anyone know of a debugging utility that can debug some cakephp code line by line?

I have a weird redirect bug in my recipe controller in my site. Accessing any action under the recipe controller while not logged in will redirect to the root of the site. I even made a new action with no code in it and it does the 开发者_开发问答same thing.

class RecipeController extends AppController {
// ... stuff ....

    function test()
    {
    }
}

Everything redirects to users/login which in turn redirects to the home page.

I'm wonder if theres a line by line debugger so I can hunt down exactly what's doing the redirection.

You could install xdebug, then i debug line by line with netbeans but you can use also other tools...

For me, being redirected seems a normal behavior if you use authentication and you're not logged in. You can allow access to some actions without being logged in, like so,

function beforeFilter() {
    $this->Auth->allow('test');
}
