You should first create Admin routing in config/core.php. Just write Configure::write('Routing.prefixes', array('admin')); (if using cake1.3) or Configure::write('Routing.admin', 'admin');

Hei,

i had make the same mistake as you and because i thought the action have to be the same as the method but it isn´t.

Wrong:
Router::connect('/admin', array('controller' => 'users', 'action' =>'admin_login', 'admin' => true));

Right:
Router::connect('/admin', array('controller' => 'users', 'action' =>
'login', 'admin' => true));

You see you call the action without the prefix 'admin_' of the method only the method name.

I hope everyone is helped out of the misery
