CakePHP : 2.4 Auth component not working

I have a table name admin_users, I am trying to use auth component here. So I have written in appcontroller bellow code 

public $components = array('Session','RequestHandler','Paginator'=>array('limit'=>4),'Auth'=>array(
        'loginAction'=>array(
        'controller'=>'adminusers',
        'action'=>'login'
        ),
        'loginRedirect' => array('controller' => 'adminusers','action' => 'index'),
        'logoutRedirect' => array('controller' => 'adminusers','action' => 'index'),
        'authError'=>'You can not access this page!!',
        ));

For set user I have written 

public function beforeFilter() {
    //$this->Auth->allow();
    $this->set('logged_in', $this->Auth->loggedIn());
    $this->set('current_user',$this->Auth->user());
     parent::beforeFilter();
        $this->Paginator->settings = array(
          'limit'=>4
    );


}

I have made a method call login() in adminusers controller 

    public function login() {
    $this->layout = 'login';
    if ($this->request->is('post')) {
        if ($this->Auth->login()) {
            return $this->redirect($this->Auth->redirect());
        }
        $this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid username or password, try again'));
    }
}

For hash password I have written in AdminUser model 

    public function beforeSave($options = array()) {
    if (isset($this->data[$this->alias]['password'])) {
        $passwordHasher = new SimplePasswordHasher();
        $this->data[$this->alias]['password'] = $passwordHasher->hash(
            $this->data[$this->alias]['password']
        );
    }
    return true;
}

This is the login.ctp 

              <?php echo $this->Form->create('AdminUser'); ?>
              <?php 
                    echo $this->Form->input('username',array(
                        'label' => false,
                        'placeholder'=>'UserName'
                        ));
                    echo $this->Form->input('password',array(
                        'label' => false,
                        'placeholder'=>'Password'
                    ));
                ?>

After used allow() mathod, I have created a user and here hash password working fine.But the problem is when I am trying to login, It is giving me "Invalid username or password, try again".

In your login.ctp you create an AdminUser. Auth uses the model 'User' as default. You need to define your own model in the Auth-Component.

 public $components = array('Session','RequestHandler','Paginator'=>array('limit'=>4),'Auth'=>array(
    'loginAction'=>array(
    'controller'=>'adminusers',
    'action'=>'login'
    ),
    'loginRedirect' => array('controller' => 'adminusers','action' => 'index'),
    'logoutRedirect' => array('controller' => 'adminusers','action' => 'index'),
    'authError'=>'You can not access this page!!',
    'authenticate' => array(
        'Form' => array(
            'userModel' => 'AdminUser',
            'passwordHasher' => 'Blowfish'
        )
    )
));
