Issue in storing auto generated password to DB

Hi ,

I have an issue in storing auto generated to DB. Save()is unsuccessful.

Please help.

[b]ERROR

Creating default object from empty value (C:\xampp\htdocs\mylls1\protected\controllers\homeController.php:89)

User.php [/b]

// model//

public function rules()

{


	// NOTE: you should only define rules for those attributes that


	// will receive user inputs.


	return array(


	    array('email, password','required','on'=>'create'),	


		[b]array('email,fname,lname,password','required','on'=>'instant_create'),[/b]	


		//array('email','email'),		


		array('email,  password', 'length', 'max'=>256),


		array('email', 'unique'),


		array('password', 'compare'),


		array('fname,lname, password_repeat', 'safe'),


		// The following rule is used by search().


		// Please remove those attributes that should not be searched.


		array('id, email,  password, fname,lname', 'safe', 'on'=>'search'),


	);


}

// Controller Code //

                            $model2=new User('instant_create');


		   


			// Auto password creation// 





                            $length = 10;


			$chars = array_merge(range(0,9), range('a','z'), range('A','Z'));


			shuffle($chars);


			$password = implode(array_slice($chars, 0, $length));








		         $model2->attributes=$data;


			 $model2->email=$_POST['email'];


			 $model2->fname=$_POST['fname'];


			[b] $model->password= md5($password);[/b]


			 $model2->lname=$_POST['lname'];


			 $model2->save();

Side Note:

If I remove password from model and controller , I can store rest of the attributes successfully.

Could it be this rule:

array('password', 'compare'),

?

Maybe dump the errors after you do the save to see why it’s unhappy?

print_r($model2->getErrors());

There was typo

$model->password= md5($password); Should have been $model2->password= md5($password);

print_r($model2->getErrors()); is awesome…helped me pinpoint the error…+1
