Angularfire null auth variable

Question

I'm having a weird problem with firebase. The auth variable is null. I use the simple login to log the users in:

$scope.login = function() {
        $scope.auth.$login('google', {
            scope: 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.me'
        }).then(function(user) {
            // The settings updated
            $scope.settings.user = {
                name: user.displayName,
                email: user.email,
                profilePic: user.thirdPartyUserData.picture
            };
            // save the settings to the database
            $firebase(dataBase.child(user.uid)).$set('settings', $scope.settings);
            // proceed to the next step
            $scope.initialLogin = true;
            // set the uid to local storage
            permanentStorage.setItem('uid', user.uid);
        }, function(error) {
            // Ionic alert popup.
            var alertPopup = $ionicPopup.alert({
                title: 'Something went wrong',
                template: error.message,
                okType: 'button-assertive'
            });
        });
    };

Everything is fine up to here, after saving the data to the firebase. I'm no longer able to access the data. I get this error when I try to get the data

Error: permission_denied: Client doesn't have permission to access the desired data.

And this one:

FIREBASE WARNING: on() or once() for /google:112071360789342135505/settings failed: Error: permission_denied: Client doesn't have permission to access the desired data.

And this is my security rules:

{
    "rules": {
        ".write": true,
        "$users": {
          ".read": "$users === auth.uid",
          ".write": "$users === auth.uid",
          "settings" : {
            "user" : {
              "name": {
                 ".validate": "newData.isString() && newData.val().length <= 2000"
              },
              "email": {
                 ".validate": "newData.isString() && newData.val().length <= 2000"
              }
            }
          }
        }
    }
}

Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Maybe you are running your app in file server not http server. — Bipin Bhandari

Where is the auth variable set? Nowhere in your example. For it to exist on $scope, it has to be set somewhere. What version of AngularFire? — Kato

I got this working by injecting the simpleLogin service into my all other controllers.

// simple login service
app.factory("simpleLogin", ["$firebaseSimpleLogin",
    function($firebaseSimpleLogin) {
        return $firebaseSimpleLogin(dataBase);
    }
]);
