Hi all,
I'm having some routing problems which I don't necessarily think the
group are going to be able to answer directly, but maybe give me some
pointers as to how I may debug further.
I have developed a site on my local machine where everything is
working just fine. Yesterday I copied the site over to a second
development server for my colleagues to start reviewing. However, on
the development server I'm getting an awful lot of
Zend_Controller_Dispatcher_Exception exceptions thrown with the
message 'Invalid controller specified (<controller name>).
I say an awful lot as not every request results in this. My default
index controller works fine, as does my Book controller, but all
others fail (please note that book controller is the real thing, and
not a typical library book example file! Its part of a booking
process). My directory structure is as follows:
www/application/
www/application/config/
www/application/modules/
www/application/modules/default/
www/application/modules/default/controller/
www/application/modules/default/controller/BookController.php
www/application/modules/default/controller/ComingSoonController.php
www/application/modules/default/controller/IndexController.php
www/application/modules/default/controller/StaticPagesController.php
www/application/modules/default/views/
www/application/templates/
www/htdocs/ <- doc root
As I say, the BookController and IndexController work fine, but
ComingSoonController and StaticPagesController are not found.
During a request for /comingsoon/index the request object looks like
this:
2007-08-15T08:03:32+01:00 DEBUG (7): Zend_Controller_Request_Http Object
(
[_requestUri:protected] => /default/ComingSoon/index/
[_baseUrl:protected] =>
[_basePath:protected] =>
[_pathInfo:protected] => /default/ComingSoon/index/
[_params:protected] => Array
(
[module] => default
[controller] => ComingSoon
[action] => index
)
[_aliases:protected] => Array
(
)
[_dispatched:protected] => 1
[_module:protected] => default
[_moduleKey:protected] => module
[_controller:protected] => ComingSoon
[_controllerKey:protected] => controller
[_action:protected] => index
[_actionKey:protected] => action
)
So the correct modules, controller and action parameters are being
taken from the URL.
All the controllers are working fine with exactly the same code on a
local development machine. The only real difference being the the
development machine has a local hostname and uses Apache Virtual
Hosts, whereas the new testing server on which the site fails is
accessed over the internet via its IP address. There is no domain
registered against it.
Some relevant lines from my bootstrap:
// Get front controller
$controller = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$modules = array('default',"$modulesDir/default/controller/");
$controller->setControllerDirectory($modules);
***** NOTE THE ABOVE LINES HAVE BEEN ADDED TO TRY AND RESOLVE THE
ISSUE, THEY WERE NOT REQUIRED ON THE WORKING SERVER *********
// Add some additional routes - if we keep these they should come
from a config
$router = $controller->getRouter();
$router->addRoute('shows', new Zend_Controller_Router_Route
('shows/:event',
array('controller'=>'findashow','action'=>'showInfo')));
$router->addRoute('InsiderTips',new Zend_Controller_Router_Route
('insidertips/:article',
array('controller'=>'staticPages',
'artion'=>'index',
'article'=>'insidertips',
'category'=>'insidertips')));
$router->addRoute('whyus',new Zend_Controller_Router_Route
('whyus/:article',
array('controller'=>'staticPages',
'artion'=>'index',
'article'=>'whyus',
'category'=>'whyus')));
$router->addRoute('whybookapackage',new Zend_Controller_Router_Route
('whybookapackage/:article',
array('controller'=>'staticPages',
'artion'=>'index',
'article'=>'whybookapackage',
'category'=>'whybookapackage')));
Could anyone suggest any where I might start looking and debugging
further? Perhaps somewhere where the actual path to the action
controller is generated and an attempt is made to instantiate the
class might give me some clues as to what's going wrong?
