Ok I have adopted a CodeIgniter Setup,
My route.php in config looks like this:
$route['default_controller'] = "development";
My development.php controller looks like this:
class Development extends Controller
{
function Development() {
parent::Controller();
}
public function Index() {
$this->load->view('index');
}
function show() {
$this->load->view('show');
}
}
When I go to the root folder, in my browser, it does load the index.php view, I want to make a link to show.php which is also in my Views dir. the URL I'm using is eg: my.server/test/codeigniter/ but when I go to my.server/test/codeigniter/show my show.php doesn't load. Am I doing this correctly?
I should mention I've tried public function show() also and it doesn't work, also I have no .htaccess file in the directory
Any advice would help!
Two rules are enough in your .htaccess file:
# check if the requested resource is not an existing file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
# rewrite internally to index.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]
Mod_rewrite and AllowOverride All assumed enabled.
Ken Struys comment on your question is correct. The default controller status you give a controller means that controller and the index function will load if you go to
my.server/test.
Other than that, you need to include index.php/controller_name/function_name to get to your controller functions.
Unless that is, you implement some fancy .htaccess url rewriting, which I can't help you with.
You can set it in routes.php as below:
$route['show']='development/show';

I've created one test.php file in location applications\views\test\test.php with controller in application\controller\Test.php & model in applications\models\Test_model.php.
In my routes.php file, I have added $route['test']='test/view'.
Please note there are some files present already which are working quite fine, one of which is login.php & it has value in routes.php as $route['login']='login/view'. Plus this file does have same model & controller files in likewise location.
When I try to access localhost\test, it gives me 404 error whereas for localhost\login works quite fine.
Can anybody help in routing? I'm new to codeigniter & I could not resolve this issue.
EDIT
htaccess works fine as localhost\login is loading properly along with other few files.
EDIT 2
Test_model.php
<?php
class Test_model extends CI_Model{
public function __construct()
{
$this->load->database();
}
}
?>
test.php
<div>Testing</div>
Test.php
<?php
class Test extends MY_Controller{
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('test_model');
}
public function view()
{
$this->loadHeader();
$this->load->view('test/test');
$this->loadFooter();
}
}
?>
routes.php
$route['test'] = 'test/view';
EDIT 3
When I try to access localhost\application\controllers\Test.php, it gives me an error that says Class My_Controller not found. However, when I attempt to do it with any other file let's login with with the same location, it gives me the same error.
So I guess, it's able to find the controller because it's giving an error obviously but not able to load anything else.
Is there some sort of config file in which I have to mention every new page I create or something? There has to be something. This is pretty basic & I'm not able to get to the root of it.
EDIT 4
So this is what a problem is. When I copied my test view file to pages folder, it worked. Of course in controller I edited path of the file.
Now the real question is why didn't new folder named test under views work?
Finally, the culprit was this line in routes.php file:
$route['(:any)'] = 'pages/view/$1';
I was adding other route below this so it was getting default behaviour. I put them above this line & it worked like a charm. I never thought this could be the issue.
Line number matters, now.
Create a .htaccess file and paste this code below
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|css|js|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
I am having problems with codeigniter 3, I am using netbeans as my IDE and wampserver.
I was able to browser successfully to 'localhost/ci_test/' (ci_test is the name of the project/website') and it served me the default welcome.php controller,
however I tried a 2nd controller inside the CI controller folder called 'Test.php', with the following content:
<?php
class Test extends CI_Controller {
public function index() {
echo "This is default function.";
}
public function hello() {
echo "This is hello function.";
}
}
?>
then when i tried to browse to that controller: with the following url:
http://localhost/ci_test/index.php/test
it served me my welcome.php (which is not what I wanted),
then I tried this url:
http://localhost/ci_test/test.php
and I got a response:
Not Found
The requested URL /ci_test/test.php was not found on this server.
Apache/2.4.9 (Win64) PHP/5.5.12 Server at localhost Port 80
I don't understand what am I missing here...
Note: I did not change the .htacess files that were provided by codeigniter, and left them as is(maybe the problem there).
I only changed the following things in CI:
application/config/config.php:
$config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/ci_test/';
$config['index_page'] = ''
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'PATH_INFO';
I hope someone can help here :)
EDIT:
I have read the first 4 answer's and it still doesn't work
EDIT2:
so after I decided to give up, I noticed that my apache server did not have ' mod_rewrite' ON, so i turned it on
tried again the same project and it still did not work, Then I decided to create a new project from scratch and with CI, I added new controller and everything works well now. this is lol...
Thank you very much for all those who tried to help me :)
You need to access that Test Controller directly then you need to add .htaccess file in the project root..
here is the .htaccess file for avoiding index.php in codeigniter
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
if you add this .htaccess file in the root your problem will resolved..
also don't need to add extention in your url (http://localhost/ci_test/test.php) , this is wrong
http://localhost/ci_test/test
this is enough to load your controller
welcome controller
<?php
class Welcome extends MY_Controller
{
public function index()
{
$this->load->view('welcome');
}
}
welcome view
Test Page
test controller
<?php
class Test extends MY_Controller
{
public function index()
{
$this->load->view('test');
}
}
test view
<h1>Test Page</h1>
The views must be named test.php and welcome.php and placed into the views folder.
Let us know how you get on.
Have a look at the routes.php file in the config folder
Change $route['default_controller'] = 'welcome';
to
$route['default_controller'] = 'test';
See if that works
If you get an error saying it can't find the page look at the address bar if it is like this
http://localhost/ci_test/test
try changing it to this
http://localhost/index.php/ci_test/test
Out of the box, codeigniter uses the url . com/controller/method.
You have created a Test controller called Test.php.
To access it you would use...
http://localhost/ci_test/test
You Do Not put a .php on the end.
This is a rushed quick answer... If you are using WAMPServer, check that it hasn't set MultiViews in either your httpd file or the vhosts file if you are using that.
I'm new to codeigniter and I'm working on a project that is done on this framework. When I try to access a url such as "mysite.com/about", it gives me and an error
404 Not found,
I tried many .htaccess file on wamp and a live host but the result is the same.
I can Access these file by using "mysite.com/index.php/about" but I want to access as this "mysite.com/about" this not only for about page but all so very page that I try to access by using like this "mysite.com/contact-us"
.How do I fix this?
Write this code in your .htaccess file and in wamp server click on rewrite_module
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
IndexIgnore *
</IfModule>
By default, Codeigniter will call the about controller, unless a method is provided in the second uri segment, the index() method will be loaded.
If the index() method doesn't exist, it will 404.
The other way of doing it is to add a line in your application/config/routes.php file. Such as:
$route['about'] = 'main/about';
This means, a request where the url matches /about will map to main/about
Main being the controller and about being the method within that for example.
See this part of the documentation for a more detailed explaination
https://www.codeigniter.com/userguide3/general/routing.html
Hope this helps
Make sure that you have named the Class for your controller as the controllers file name. Then try to access the page as shown in the code below.
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Pages extends CI_Controller {
function about()
{
$data['title'] = 'About us Page';
$this->load->view('about', $data); //about is in views
}
}
?>
The file name should be pages.php in this case.
To access the about page type in this link mysite.com/index.php?/controllerfolder/pages/about.
If you want clean url and remove index.php? edit your htaccess. Use this link to know how to edit your htaccess
https://www.formget.com/codeigniter-htaccess-remove-index-php/.
Hope this is helpful. Thanks
This is the error that i am getting.
Please make sure the controller specified in your Routes.php file is valid.
Let me explain this.
In my application i have used HMVC. In my application folder there are two folders back-modules and front-modules.in my front-modules folder there is a folder called "home" and it has controllers,modules and views.
controllers->home.php
this is my home.php
class Home extends MX_Controller{
public function __construct(){
parent::__construct();
$this->load->helper(array('form'));
}
public function index(){
$this->template->build('home');
}
}
and this is my routes.php
$route['default_controller'] = "home";
$route['404_override'] = '';
when i try to go to the site, it gives this error
unable to load your default controller on Codeigniter.Please make sure the controller specified in your Routes.php file is valid.
this system works fine on localhost.
Someone please help me in this matter.
Typically there is a one-to-one relationship between a URL string and its corresponding controller class/method. The segments in a URI normally follow this pattern:
example.com/class/function/id/
your 'default_controller' should be:
$route['default_controller'] = "home/index";
read official CodeIgniter URI Routing Documentation
Kindly Check .htaccess file exist or not in root place of your website.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1
Some times codeigniter won't find the controller.
Go to config > routers.php
and see the value of default_controller
make a controller in controllers folder with the same value.
According to codegniter manual managing multi application
in your index.php file change
$application_folder = 'application';
to
$application_folder = 'application/home';
and make sure the controller file name starts with capital letter
controllers->Home.php
and keep Routes.php configurations
$route['default_controller'] = "home";
I'm trying to setup a blog script on a website running on the CodeIgniter framework. I want do this without making any major code changes to my existing website's code. I figured that creating a sub domain pointing to another Controller would be the cleanest method of doing this.
The steps that I took to setup my new Blog controller involved:
Creating an A record pointing to my server's ip address.
Adding new rules to CodeIgniter's routes.php file.
Here is what I came up with:
switch ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']) {
case 'blog.notedu.mp':
$route['default_controller'] = "blog";
$route['latest'] = "blog/latest";
break;
default:
$route['default_controller'] = "main";
break;
}
This should point blog.notedu.mp and blog.notedu.mp/latest to my blog controller.
Now here is the problem...
Accessing blog.notedu.mp or blog.notedu.mp/index.php/blog/latest works fine, however accessing blog.notedu.mp/latest takes me to a 404 page for some reason...
My .htaccess file looks like this (the default for removing index.php from the url):
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
And my Blog controller contains the following code:
class Blog extends CI_Controller {
public function _remap($method){
echo "_remap function called.\n";
echo "The method called was: ".$method;
}
public function index()
{
$this->load->helper('url');
$this->load->helper('../../global/helpers/base');
$this->load->view('blog');
}
public function latest(){
echo "latest working";
}
}
What am I missing out on or doing wrong here? I've been searching for a solution to this problem for days :(
After 4 days of trial and error, I've finally fixed this issue!
Turns out it was a .htaccess problem and the following rules fixed it:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
Thanks to everyone that read or answered this question.
Does blog.domain.co/blog/latest also show a 404?
maybe you could also take a look at the _remap() function for your default controller.
http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/general/controllers.html#default
Basically, CodeIgniter uses the second segment of the URI to determine which function in the controller gets called. You to override this behavior through the use of the _remap() function.
Straight from the user guide,
If your controller contains a function named _remap(), it will always
get called regardless of what your URI contains. It overrides the
normal behavior in which the URI determines which function is called,
allowing you to define your own function routing rules.
public function _remap($method)
{
if ($method == 'some_method')
{
$this->$method();
}
else
{
$this->default_method();
}
}
Hope this helps.
have a "AllowOverride All" in the configuration file of the subdomain in apache?
without it "blog.notedu.mp/index.php/blog/latest" work perfectly, but "blog.notedu.mp/latest" no
$route['latest'] = "index";
means that the URL http://blog.example.com/latest will look for an index() method in an index controller.
You want
$route['latest'] = "blog/latest";
Codeigniter user guide has a clear explanation about routes here
