  Example of a controller action for authenticating the request from the login form

  
      public function loginAction()
      {
          // check that this is POST request
          $req = $this->getRequest();
          if (!$req->isPost()) {
              $this->_redirect('/');
              return;
          }
  
          // get the database resource
          $db = Zend_Registry::getInstance()->get('db');
  
  
          // get POST parameters
          $login = $this->getParam('login');
          $password = $this->getParam('password');
  
          // define the adapter
          $authAdapter = new Zend_Auth_Adapter_DbTable($db);
          $authAdapter->setTableName('Users');
              ->setIdentityColumn('username');
              ->setCredentialColumn('password');
              ->setIdentity($login);
              ->setCredential($password);
              ->setCredentialTreatment('MD5(?)');
  
          // authenticate
          $auth = Zend_Auth::getInstance();
          $result = $auth->authenticate($authAdapter);
          if ($result->isValid()) {
              $data = $authAdapter->getResultRowObject(null, 'password'); // without password
              $auth->getStorage()->write($data);
          }
  
          $this->_redirect('/');
      }
