CI new default controller not working - php

Have problem with CI 3.0
if i leave default controller in routes.php file "welcome" everything is working perfectly.
BUT if I change it i.e. "main" CI starts to throw 404 error
main controller for first steps is the same as welcome. I just copied files. renamed, changed class name (ofcourse), and in index() loading view.
any suggestions?
also I forgot to tell
on wamp localhost everything is working.. but in server NOT.. :/
And one more thing...
i.e. if I try go to mydomain.com/welcome - working,
if I try go to mydomain.com/main - NOT.
even if i change routes default controller back to welcome
My main.php file:
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Main extends CI_Controller {
function index(){
$this->load->view('welcome_message');
}
}
my routes.php file:
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
$route['default_controller'] = 'main';
$route['404_override'] = '';
$route['translate_uri_dashes'] = FALSE;

As said in the comments : Your controller's file name must start with an uppercase. In your case, Main.php.
See http://codeigniter.com/userguide3/changelog.html
«changed filenaming convention (class file names now must be Ucfirst and everything else in lowercase). »

You just need to set your default controller in application/config/routes.php like
$route['default_controller'] = $this->set_directory('front/home/').'home/index';
for Ci 3.x

i stuck with this problem.
i fixed it just replacing the path.
here "site" folder is the default if you want to use CI, you have to store your all code into "site" folder. if you have not used site folder for installation it ll not work with multiple controller setting.
hence you get default controller as a workable and rest of others appeared 404.
change .htacess file in your root directory.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Removes index.php from ExpressionEngine URLs
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET.*index\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/system/.* [NC]
RewriteRule (.*?)index\.php/*(.*) /$1$2 [R=301,NE,L]
# Directs all EE web requests through the site index file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /site/index.php/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /codeig/index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
above u can see there is
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /codeig/index.php/$1 [L]
changed line for "codeig" root folder.

Try to change the function index() to Public.
If that doesnt work, then try to add in the URL: domain.com/index.php/main
and see what happens. Some times u need .htaccess in the other server to remove the index.php.

In Codeigniter 3 they are adding extra code to force the names of the files to start with an upper case letter. Here's a fix for this one.
In system/core/Router.php change the line (about 303)
if ( ! file_exists(APPPATH.'controllers/'.$this->directory.ucfirst($class).'.php'))
to
if ( ! file_exists(APPPATH.'controllers/'.$class.'.php'))
I had to remove stuff in CodeIgniter.php and Loader.php as well.

Codeigniter routing throws 404 page not found error

When I am using url as
mysite.com/index.php/user/user the method is getting called.
But when I add below line in routes.php so that I can access the function using custom url.
it is throwing me error. 404 Not Found
I want to access the method using url as mysite.com/user
$route['user']['get'] = 'user/user';
user.php is present inside controller directory
<?php
use Restserver\Libraries\REST_Controller;
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
require APPPATH . 'libraries/REST_Controller.php';
require APPPATH . 'libraries/Format.php';
class User extends REST_Controller {
function __construct()
{
// Construct the parent class
parent::__construct();
}
public function user_get(){
$this->set_response("request recieved", REST_Controller::HTTP_OK); // OK (200) being the HTTP response code
}
}
[2nd question]
how to make a route to access the controller present inside certain folders in controller directory.
suppose a controller file is present in controllers/api/v1/ directory with file name user.php
Note:
I have tried all the solutions given by users on other posts but issue was not resolved.
EDIT: Issue Resloved
Routing is working just fine now. I think the problem was, I was calling mysite.com/user , instead I should have called mysite.com/index.php/user
Second issue of index.php being in the url is also resolved.
I was making the changes in .htaccess file which was present in Application folder instead.
I created a .htaccess file in root folder then added below mentioned line of code
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
You have set your route as
$route['user']['get'] = 'user/user';
Which is directing to the user controller and the user method. But in your controller you have a method called user_get.
So the simplest fix here is to change your route to point to the correct method.
NOTE: You have no method called 'user' so why is that in the route?
So this...
$route['user']['get'] = 'user/user'; // the user method does not exist
Would become...
$route['user']['get'] = 'user/user_get'; // the user_get method does exist
Update: To remove index.php from your URL, your .htaccess might be
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
And make sure you add in your base_url in applications/config/config.php
$config['base_url'] = 'http://example.com'; // Change to your sites URL
$config['index_page'] = ''; // remove index.php

how to set homepage in Codeigniter?

I organized my controllers and views into subdirectories like this
frontend
admin
I created a Home.php in controllers/frontend
and a
home.php file in views/frontend
CI is installed in http://localhost/ci
when I access http://localhost/ci, I'd like the home view to load, but currently I can only access it via http://localhost:8080/ci/frontend/home
I'm guessing it may have something to do with my .htaccess file which is this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
I also created the following constant:
define('BASE_URL', '/');
In the routes.php the default controller is set to:
$route['default_controller'] = 'frontend/home';
In the config.php, the base URL is set to:
$config['base_url'] = BASE_URL;
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Out of the Box CI 3.x.x doesn't support what you want to do. It's strictly controller/method...
But a little digging found this - Extending the Router Class to support subfolders
This allows you to override the behaviour of the router class and use sub folders.

How do I use codeigniter in a subfolder on a server?

I have two codeigniter installations under my public_html folder on my server. One is directly under public_html and the other is under public_html/posts_receive.
The instance under public_html is working normal but when I try to access the codeigniter controller inside public_html/posts_receive it shows:
404 Page Not Found
tried url http://www.example.com/posts_receive/index.php/dashboard
To solve this problem I have added an .htaccess file under public_html/posts_receive which contain the following:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /posts_receive
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L]
</IfModule>
My controller is named dashboard.php and contains the following:
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Dashboard extends CI_Controller {
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
$this->load->library("pagination");
}
public function index() {
$config = array();
$data['link_sel']='dashboard';
$data['stats']=$this->fetch_stats();
$this->load->view("header_inc", $data);
$this->load->view("dashboard", $data);
$this->load->view("footer_inc", $data);
}
}
?>
config.php includes:
$config['base_url'] = 'http://www.example.com/posts_receive/';
$config['index_page'] = 'index.php';
You should run both applications from one CodeIgniter base. You will have 2 sub folders in your application folder. Take a look at the documentation: https://www.codeigniter.com/userguide3/general/managing_apps.html
From there on you can create the same index.php file as in your root in your posts_recieve folder and point it to the right application directory. That is how i managed to do it. Otherwise the CodeIgniter instance in your root will think you are navigating to a controller called posts_recieve which does not exists in that application.Hope this helps. Otherwise, just ask when things are unclear.
Inside .htaccess, RewriteBase /posts_receive part is not needed.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L]
should become
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
(<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> is a server configuration condition. It means you should have mod_rewrite module installed and active on the web server for these settings to work.)
You could leave empty $config['index_page'] inside config.php:
$config['index_page'] = '';
And you can call the controller without the index.php part:
http://www.example.com/posts_receive/dashboard

CodeIgniter upgrade from 2.2.0 to 3.0.x: Only the default controller is loading

I don't usually post messages on the web to get help but I feel that I have tried everything and I am stuck.
I wanted to upgrade CodeIgniter from version 2.2 to version 3.0.3 (I tried v3.0.2 too) and I followed the corresponding guide on codeigniter.com. But now, only the default controller is loaded, no matter the url.
I have searched on the web and I have found out that it could come from:
the htaccess
the application/config/config file
the application/config/routes file
the new Ucfirst rule for the filenames (controllers, models...)
But I still don't have the solution...
The files in "applications/controllers" are all Ucfirst.
Everything was working fine before (with version 2.2), so WAMP should be correctly configured (mod_rewrite enabled etc...). Moreover, I have tried and succesfully loaded a clean instance of CodeIgniter 3.
Models, Controllers and Views are loaded correctly, I can change my default controller and it will load the correct view (with requests done by controllers and models). But it only loads the default controller, no matter what the url is (in the browser). Even if it does not exist, I never have the 404 page. Except if I specify an incorrect "default_controller" (in the file "routes.php").
It has to be a routing issue...
Here is some of the tests I have done:
Table of tests
Here is my htaccess file (I have tried other ones on the web too, the result is the same):
RewriteEngine On
#Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file,
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#Enable access to the images and css folders, and the robots.txt file
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|public|images|robots\.txt|css)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
Here is my "application/config/routes" file:
$route['default_controller'] = 'dashboard';
$route['404_override'] = 'auth/e404';
$route['translate_uri_dashes'] = FALSE;
Any help would be appreciated :-)
Thank you !
SOLUTION
$config['enable_query_strings'] was set to "TRUE" in the file "application/config/config.php". Setting it to "FALSE" solved the issue. So simple...
try putting the index method in the routes, for example instead of this
$route['blog'] = 'blog';
try this
$route['blog'] = 'blog/index';
and if that doesn't work, can you confirm you have set the correct base url in application/config/config.php ?
In codeigniter 3 wamp
I use this htaccess
Options +FollowSymLinks
Options -Indexes
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
With your error 404 over ride can not be in sub folder.
Change
$route['404_override'] = 'auth/e404';
To
$route['404_override'] = 'e404';
And on config.php
$config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/your_project/';
// You can leave base url blank but not recommended because when you try to submit forms make cause issue.
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';

Change Particular route in MVC CI

I have below Url in my sample application in PHP MVC CI
http://localhost:1234/Sample/Index.php/User/index
Here User is Controller and index is Action Method
Can I write this url like below ?
http://localhost:1234/Users
After seeing your code , main mistake you have done you have renamed index.php, which is wrong, please revert that index1212.php to index.php
Rest of the thing you can follow other answers.But this is maon, codeigniter will not run without index.php file
Edit
One more error i noticed, in routes.php,
its
$route['Users'] = 'user/';
not $routes
And access your project like this,http://localhost/Sample/Users
And as far as my knowledge, you cannot hide folder name in url.
If you would like to use custom routes. http://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/general/routing.html
You do not need to include index.php in routes.php
// application > controllers > sample > Users.php filename first letter must be uppercase. Same with class name.
$routes['users'] = 'sample/users/index'; // Lower case preferred.
// When with out function would go straight to index function
$routes['users'] = 'sample/users';
// No Need for index.php
// $routes['Users'] = 'Sample/Index.php/User/index';
Now url will be
http://localhost:1234/project/users
http://localhost/project/users
Or with index.php
http://localhost:1234/project/index.php/users
http://localhost/project/index.php/users
You may need to remove index.php here are some htaccess
https://github.com/riwakawebsitedesigns/htaccess_for_codeigniter
application > config > config.php
$config['index_page'] = '';
htaccess example
Options +FollowSymLinks
Options -Indexes
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
Note WAMP users:
If your using WAMP make sure you have rewrite module enabled.
Sample is your project dir so you can not write the route which you want you can write the route as bellow.
http://localhost:1234/Sample/Users
And your route file will look like bellow.
$route['Users'] = 'User/index';
