Problem with helper function - works ok locally but not on host |
[eluser]gypmaster[/eluser]
Hi, I've got a helper function - MY_security_helper.php which I autoload like this: Code: $autoload['helper'] = array('url','form','text','date','security', 'MY_security'); it works just fine on my local wamp install but, when I upload to my web host (hostgator) and try to run my app I get the following CI error: Quote:An Error Was Encountered I've set the base url as follows: Code: $config['base_url'] = ((isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == "on") ? "https" : "http"); Anyone know why this error is getting thrown? TIA

Your WAMP runs on Windows, which has a case-insensitive filesystem. Your host most likely uses Unix/Linux, which is case-sensitive. My guess is that your helper isn't called MY_security, but MY_Security or my_security. Which doesn't work on Unix.

Yes, that's right ... my local box is windows and my hosting is linux. I've changed to Code: $config['subclass_prefix'] = 'my_'; and called the helper MY_security_helper.php, that throws the same error. I've left the subclass_prefix as 'my_' and changed the helper file name to my_security_helper.php that throws the same error. The change the subclass_prefix to 'MY_' and renamed the helper file to my_security_helper.php that threw the same error. So, is there anything else I can do to resolve this?

http://johns-jokes.com/c_shop/ I have just experienced somethng very similar. I just created the above c_cart.php controller that worked fine on my local Windows system but would not load on my Linux host unless I renamed the class to class C_Shop extends MY_controller. I have not changed the $config['subclass_prefix'] = 'MY_'; This is weird because the other controllers are all lowercase.

If your subclass_prefix is 'MY_', your file should be called 'MY_security_helper.php'. You should load it using: Code: $this->load->helper('security');

Still not working on my linux host. Here's my config: Code: $config['subclass_prefix'] = 'MY_'; The helper should be autoloaded - here's my autoload: Code: $autoload['helper'] = array('url','form','text','date','security'); function called MY_security_helper.php sits in the application/helpers folder. When I type www.mydomain.com in address bar, instead of getting my index function I still get the following CI error message: Quote:An Error Was Encountered anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

[quote author="gypmaster" date="1252930913"] function called MY_security_helper.php sits in the application/helpers folder. Unable to load the requested file: helpers/my_security_helper.php [/quote] This is a subtle hint...

Without wanting to be patronizing: what part of "If your subclass_prefix is ‘MY_’, your file should be called ‘MY_security_helper.php’." didn't you understand?
[eluser]gypmaster[/eluser]
yeah, I think I get get the 'subtle hint' - ci is looking for a file called my_security_helper.php ... and I understood all of the stuff in the post above. That's the problem - subclass prefix is set to MY_ & the function is called MY_security_helper.php but the error message refers to a function called my_security_helper.php and not MY_security_helper.php so why is theeror message being thrown? wy is it trying to load a function I can't find any reference to?
