Well, I have the same trouble... When I have the controller in a folder 2 levels down:
controllers/folder_level1/folder_lever2/
It doesn´t work!!! (a error 404 apears)
If I move the controller to the folder_level1 it works!!!!
Somebody has solves this?

Your answer is right above my last post.
You can only have 1 subfolder!
If you want to solve that, you need to modify the core to look down in more than one folder.

Actually with the help of http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/107451/#541043 you can have unlimited nested folders, view the code.
You can either use the posted code, or use mine, which I customized it to fit my needs, it may even help you.

The above post is spam. Can we delete it so we aren't indexing their Web site via Google.
Edit: The above post is not, I repeat not spam.

Fuzzy, you're post will look kind of stupid once the post is deleted, as you'll be refering to a valid post as spam lol (note to self, always quote a spammer when referencing them)

I
I have problems navigating around code that's any more than a few pages in length, so I now try to export every controller method into it's own controller, and use _remap(). So my structure would look something like this.
Code: controllers
+-admin
+-forums
| +-homepage.php
| +-delete.php
| +-create.php
| +-update.php
| +-show.php
|
+-users
| +-homepage.php
| +-delete.php
| +-create.php
| +-update.php
| +-show.php
|
+-homepage.php
+-another_controller.php
The standard CodeIgniter Router does not go more than one directory deep, so I needed an alternative.
Here's my take on the subject.
./system/application/libraries/MY_Router.php
Code: <?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class MY_Router extends CI_Router {
/**
* Validates the supplied segments. Attempts to determine the path to
* the controller.
*
* @access private
* @param array
* @return array
*/
function _validate_request($segments)
{
// Does the requested controller exist in the root directory?
if (file_exists(APPPATH.'controllers/'.$segments[0].EXT))
{
return $segments;
}
// Maybe it's in a sub-directory?
while (count($segments) > 0)
{
if (file_exists(APPPATH.'controllers/'.$this->fetch_directory().$segments[0].EXT))
{
return $segments;
}
$this->set_directory($this->fetch_directory().$segments[0]);
$segments = array_slice($segments, 1);
}
// We're out of options - is there a default controller in the current directory?
if (file_exists(APPPATH.'controllers/'.$this->fetch_directory().$this->default_controller.EXT))
{
$this->set_class($this->default_controller);
$this->set_method('index');
return array();
}
# I was thinking of also imeplementing something like this:
#// Is there a file named "index" in the current directory?
#if (file_exists(APPPATH.'controllers/'.$this->fetch_directory()."index".EXT))
#{
# $this->set_class($this->default_controller);
# $this->set_method('index');
#
# return array();
#}
# ... and/or this:
#// Is there a file with the same name as the current directory
#if (file_exists(APPPATH.'controllers/'.$this->fetch_directory().basename($this->fetch_directory()).EXT))
#{
# $this->set_class($this->default_controller);
# $this->set_method('index');
#
# return array();
#}
// Can't find the requested controller...
show_404(substr($this->fetch_directory(), 0, -1));
}
}
The last two if statements was something I was thinking of implementing, so that apps can be more portable, and not have to know what the name of the default controller is.
However, if you create a subdirectory with the same name as a PHP file that resides in the same directory, the directory will never be traversed. Blatantly obvious, but hey...
And also, it's recommended that each controller directory contains a default controller. Again, this is more to do with common sense than anything else.
Feel free to give this library a bash. It's been designed to be fully compatible with your current structure, so long as your structure works with CodeIgniter already.
Comments and questions welcome.
@Dam1an: I've edited my post above to reflect the current situation accordingly.

@Fuzzy, You should not use "View" as a controller class name, sorry about that. (see Reserved Words)
It sounds like you should be using Modular Extensions or Matchbox to manage your code.
Note: You do not need to use the HMVC components in Modular Extensions but it does allow you better organization in large applications.

I think the 'not calling a controller function view' thing only applies to PHP4
