Cakephp routes redirect base path

I am trying to make an URL like these: www.website.com/, www.website.com redirect to www.website.com/members/login through routes.php. I have this at the moment: Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'home', 'action' => 'index'));

How can i setup the route / to reach my desired url?

Thank you!

You can just replace the line:

Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'home', 'action' => 'index'));

with:

Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'members', 'action' => 'login'));

However, I believe you don't want to do this.

Just leave your routes untouched, and set up AuthComponent properly:

class AppController extends Controller {

    // Pass settings in $components array
    public $components = array(
        'Auth' => array(
            'loginAction' => array(
                'controller' => 'members',
                'action' => 'login',
            ),
        //[...] rest of your Auth options
        )    
    );

For further reference, see Cookbook 2.x: Authentication.

Probably you have AuthComponent somewhere and '/' is set as dissallowed. $this->Auth->allow('/') should help.
