Answer 1

in your User model you should canghe the function name save() with another name eg saveUser so this is not recalled by the inner $user->save() that is a normal ActiveRecord function for save.
Calling User->save() as you are doing you produce an infinite nested loop ..
.....
public function saveUser($runValidation = true, $attributeNames = null)
{
$user = new Users();
$user->username = $this->username;
$user->email = $this->email;
$user->setPassword($this->password);
$user->generateAuthKey();
if ($user->save()) {
$this->id = $user->id;
return true;
}
}
...
In your controller Action eg:action Create you should call your $user->saveUser(...)
*/
public function actionCreateForCatone2()
{
....
$user->saveUser(...);
...
}
