Ok so I have user create account, create a random string, store it in the database and send the user this link:

http://example.com/login/verifyaccount/s...2829853473

User clicks on the link naturally, but when they do I get a 404 error.

Here is my controller

Code:

$string    = $this->uri->segment(3);            

$verification= preg_split('/-/', $string);

$username = $verification[0];

$security_string         = $verification[1];

$verification_array = array($username, $security_string);

$this->load->model('usersmodel');

$status = $this->usersmodel->verifyaccount($verification_array);

$data['status'] = $status;

$this->load->view('verifyaccountview', $data);

I'm not 100% sure but I don't think CI allows hyphens in the parameters or function names. Try using GET queries instead if you want to pass multiple variables.

Use the form

Code:

http://example.com/login/verifyaccount?username=someusername&code=458492829853473

Get the username and code using $this->input->get()

Code:

$username = $this->input->get('username');

$security_string = $this->input->get('code');

thanks i'll try this in a bit and get back

[eluser]jerry01[/eluser]
i thought hyphen was allowed, as per the config statement:

Code:

$config['permitted_uri_chars'] = 'a-z 0-9~%.:_\-';

@jerry01 hyphens are allowed as you showed.

@zulubanslee getting a 404 means it doesn't find your controller or method. Is your class Login and method verifyaccount?

[eluser]jerry01[/eluser]
i had a similar problem at one point. It's because i had coded my link as

Code:

www.example.com/mtcontrlr/mymthd/123545

and really the code was missing

Quote:index.php

the working link was

Code:

www.example.com/index.php/mtcontrlr/mymthd/123545

i assume that your issue is not something so simple though.

Yes it is.

[eluser]zulubanslee[/eluser]
@jerry01

I thought of that and tried it, and it still doesn't work.

[eluser]osci[/eluser]
You should check error log files.

Mind posting your controller in full?
If you don't want to, do you have any other method in Login class? Is it working?

[eluser]zulubanslee[/eluser]
The controller is called login. Here is the function.

Code:

function verifyaccount($security_code)

{

  $this->load->model('usersmodel');

  $status = $this->usersmodel->verifyaccount($security_code);

  $data['status'] = $status;

  $this->load->view('verifyaccountview', $data);

}

Also, where is the error log file;

thanks
