How to load view in file error_404.php? - El Forum - 08-06-2008

Hello!
At the beginning sorry for my English, but I learn his yet.

I have small problem with CodeIgniter. I would like to load view in file errors/error_404.php. So I put in this file code:

Code:
&lt;?php

header("HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found");

$this->CI =& get_instance();

$this->data['main'] = $this->CI->load->view('404', array(), TRUE);

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

?&gt;

If i visit on page www.mysite.pl/controller/qwerty (qwerty is any string) all works good. However when I go on page www.mysite.pl/qwerty I have error:

Quote:Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_instance() in .../application/errors/error_404.php on line 4

Please help me solve my problem.

Greetings from Poland,
Paul.

Have you try with

Code:
&lt;?php

header("HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found");

$CI =& get_instance();

#$this->CI =& get_instance();

$this->data['main'] = $CI->load->view('404', array(), TRUE);

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

Missing controller 404 errors are thrown before the CI super-object is instantiated. The function get_instance doesn't exist that early in the execution cycle. There are no satisfying workarounds to this problem yet Sad

Why dont you just include the files needed, i presume it is mainly static content you'll require, and simply just including files maybe the easiest option ?

Code:
&lt;?php 

header("HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found");

require_once(path to file needed);

require_once(path to file needed);

require_once(path to file needed);

Just use native php if the system isnt completely initiated yet, also you could develop this further to send yourself an email when these errors occur with $heading and $message

remember that path to file will be relative to where index.php is placed, for example ../application/views/_global_nav.php

In 'application/config/routes.php' just specify the controller and function to be called on a 404.

routes.php
----------

Code:
$route['404_override'] = 'site/not_found';

Using the above example just put a function called 'not_found' in the controller 'site.php'.
Then just load the view you want as usual.

site.php
--------

Code:
public function not_found()

{

 $this->load->view('error_404');

}
