When I uploaded this file on server it is showing the error
Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class:updatescontroller on line 97
pointing to the line
$dispatch =new $controller($model,$controllerName,$action);
Please help me determine what is going wrong.
Also the same server is also not allowing me to run the unregisterGlobals() function and showing “too many errors for undefined index”.
The complete project is running very well on my localhost server.

Answer 1

From the error message I guess you are missing an included file that declares the updatescontroller class. Maybe you need to upload the entire project?
It also seems that your local PHP configuration doesn't match the remote configuration. Try matching your local php.ini with the remote server to make local testing more realistic.
If at all possible try to match the PHP version on your local server with the remote server. There can be subtle differences between versions.
