Beginner question; 404 Page Not Found!

[eluser]cehennem[/eluser]
Hey there,

I've just set up the CodeIgniter package from its original.

But this controller shows me "404 Page Not Found" thing of code-igniter:

Code:

<?php
class Login extends Controller {

        function Login()
        {
            parent::Controller();
                        echo 'hey there';
        }
}

Nothing changed from config or routes files.

ps; I compared my controller with welcome.php, the only difference is welcome.php has a index() function that my controller hasn't. whats the use and need of index(), whats difference between index() and classname ie. Login() ?

Did you change the application/config/routes.php default controller ?

The controller defaults to calling the index function, otherwise you
need to specify it controller/method

When there is a function of the same name as the class... in this case "Login" it runs when the class is created - or in this case, when the controller is invoked... The index function is called by CI when you invoke the controller with no method name... It's what is called a default method. Since you don't have one, any call to that controller will result in a 404.

And just to make sure you get it.
You need an index() function as well if you're just gonna call the Login controller without a method (domain.com/login/).
