I have a controller sub-directory named registrar and also i have a controller named Registrar.php Whenever i access the sub directory registrar and have a Registration.php i encounter a Page not Found .. example :: http://localhost/registrar/registration/register... But when i access the Registrar.php like :: http://localhost/registrar/method .. it is ok.. But when i renamed the registrar folder it works.. I just want to confirmed if it is a bug... Sample directory above... RE: Controllers sub directory have identical controller - sv3tli0 - 11-13-2015 The router will search for a class at first place and after that for dir / class.. In your case it finds class Registrar and there is no method registration so it fails.. RE: Controllers sub directory have identical controller - Jheysoon - 11-15-2015 So CI must have a fallback method for this kind of situation ..?? To search for a controllers/directory/class/method/parameters ... If it fails to find the controllers/class/method/parameters ... Thanks for the reply.. RE: Controllers sub directory have identical controller - ciadmin - 11-15-2015 Fallback? CodeIgniter has rules it applies for routing, and developers should avoid having folders and classes with the same name. This may become a non-issue with CI4, but we have to live with what we have for now RE: Controllers sub directory have identical controller - sv3tli0 - 11-15-2015 I think that the Default Searching should be as it is 1st - Controller > Method 2nd - Directory > Controller > Method Don't forget that the routing is auto create for this type of routes. You are always able to define your custom rules at the route configuration..
