Why a new admin account get redirected to /home instead of /admin/dashboard?

[gabrielfigueroa]

Bug report

What I did:

I created a new admin user. Not the default admin account but a new user with the permission of Administrator.

What I expected to happen:

When I login I expect the exact same behavior as the admin account

What happened:

Instead of redirecting to /admin/dashboard it redirects to non-existing /home route

What I've already tried to fix it:

A lot of different things, from changing CONST HOME to trying to understand how the middleware RedirectIfAuthenticated.php works. Isn't this something that should work out of the box?

Hello @gabrielfigueroa what do you set as a "guard" is config/backpack/base.php ?

And i will need the "guard" on the "Roles" table to compare. The new user and the old adming share the same "guard"?

Thanks.

Thanks.

'guard' => 'backpack'

All records under roles have backpack as value on the guard_name field.

I fixed the problem temporarily by setting the field is_admin to 1 on the users table for said user.

So can you check if you have something special set in the method "checkIfUserIsAdmin" vendor/backpack/crud/src/app/Http/Middleware/CheckIfAdmin.php or if you overwrite this method.

Thanks.

Hello @gabrielfigueroa did you have a chance to check about that method?

Thanks.
