Everything accessed above the folder a user is defined in must be public.

Your description seems to suggest that you try to use cookie authentication.

   If this is true, disable cookie authentication
   for the moment and try to access the login form directly.

   I hope you will get a browser login dialog. Cancel it.
   You should get an Unauthorized page detailing what can not be
   accessed.

   If the problem does not happen with the login form, try the same
   with the login action and the target page.
