Why do you think you have to use setBaseUrl()? There is no need to. You have to use setBaseUrl() if your url looks like this: http://tauren.dev/something/anything/news/show
By default Zend_Controller_Front will use "something" as your controller, "anything" as your action and "news=show" as request param. After setting the base url to "/something/anything/" your Front Controller will use "news" as your controller and "show" as your action. So I think you do not need to set an base url. -- Jan -----Original Message----- From: novastorm [mailto:jonyn...@gmail.com] Sent: Mon 12/15/2008 6:19 PM To: fw-general@lists.zend.com Subject: [fw-general] Why isn't this working? Hello, I'm using the ZF to build an application. I have encountered a problem that I just don't understand. I can't get hold of the host url with the setBaseUrl() method from Zend_Controller_Front. Subsequently, all my links, that are made dynamically with smarty, don't work, because they turn out like http://index instead of http://project.dev/index. But if I for instance do this: $controller = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance(); $controller->setBaseUrl('../'); .. all my url's look fine, but I get a 404 error when I click them. My apache folder structure is like this (it's on windows btw): /www (webroot for virtual host "localhost") /www/Tauren/htdocs (webroot for virtual host "tauren.dev") in /www/Tauren/ I have a httpd.conf file with the virtual host config: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName tauren.dev ServerAlias tauren.dev DocumentRoot "D:\wamp\www\Tauren\htdocs" <Directory "D:\wamp\www\Tauren\htdocs"> AllowOverride All Options All </Directory> php_value include_path ".;d:\wamp\www\Tauren\include\Zend\library;D:\wamp\www\Tauren\include;D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.2.6\PEAR" php_value magic_quotes_gpc off php_value register_globals off SetEnv APP_CONFIG_FILE "settings.ini" SetEnv APP_CONFIG_SECTION "development" </VirtualHost> and in /www/Tauren/htdocs I have a htaccess file with the rewrite rule: RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 Hopefully, some of this information might shed light on things. I'll supply more information on demand. Any feedback and suggestions are welcome at this point :-) -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Why-isn%27t-this-working--tp21017887p21017887.html Sent from the Zend Framework mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
