User Authentication Class - no longer exists? - El Forum - 11-12-2012

I'm coming from CI 1.7 to 2.1 and I can't find auth library. Does it deprecated? If yes what else I can use?
Thanks

There is no built-in auth library neither for 1.7 nor for 2.x. You need to have a look here:

I had installed CI 1.7 with

No clue if it was there by default or not.

It surely wasn't included in the default installation of CI since CI ain't no CMS or alike but a framework for helping developing apps. However I'm surprised that you lost this authentication module when upgrading because - I guess - you just overrode the system files and replaced names with the same filename but did not delete any files ?!

I have a backup of it. Will try if it works with CI 2.x

You have 4 options,
tank_auth
ion_auth
community_auth
create_your_own from scratch.
I prefer the latter.

I will go with 'create_your_own from scratch' because I have already created user and permissions management. Tank_auth and ion_auth looks pretty robust but is too late. Good to know for future reference
Thanks
