not sure why my controller is getting called - El Forum - 10-14-2012

Here is my route for the controller:
Code:
$route['gotopage'] = 'general/gotopage';The controller file is located here:
application/controllers/general/gotopage.php
Here is the code in the controller file:
Code:
<?php
if (!defined('BASEPATH'))
exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Gotopage extends CI_Controller
{
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
public function index()
{
this->load->view('index');
}
}
?>for some reason codeigniter is throwing the 404 page not found error.
I have no idea what I'm doing wrong...

Your route is saying "if the request is for /gotopage, send it to the general controller/gotopage method".
So, you're sending the request to the "general" controller, which doesn't exist.

Your example should be okay - it should find the controller in the subdirectory just fine. Can you access the general/gotopage controller directory (without routes)? Verify that you can do that first.
