My_Form_validation class not loading

[eluser]ChrisHJ[/eluser]
Hi,

I'm trying to use a custom validation class with custom validation rules, but for some reason the class never loads.

The set-up is very simple, so I'm just gonna give it all to you here, starting with my function (in controller 'Bruger') when the button is clicked:

Code:

public function glemt_adgangskode()
    {
        $this->load->library('auth');
        
        $send = $this->input->post('create');
        
        if($send)
        {
            print_r($this->auth->forgot_password($this->input->post('user_email')));
        }
        
        $this->load->view('form');
    }

This should bring us to the auth library, in the function forgot_password($user_email):

Code:

public function forgot_password($user_email)
    {
        $this->ci->load->library('form_validation');
        
        $this->ci->form_validation->set_error_delimiters('<li>', '</li>');
        
        $this->ci->form_validation->set_rules('user_email', 'Email', 'required|tester_valid');
        
        if ($this->ci->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
    {
    $this->data['val'] = validation_errors();
                            
    } else {
        
            $this->data['val'] = "<li>Ny adgangskode bestilt.</li>";
    }
        
        return $this->data;
    }

I have no problem with the build-in rules ('required' works), but my custom rule 'tester_valid' does not.

My test is very simple:

Code:

class My_Form_validation extends CI_Form_validation {

    public function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();
        $ci = & get_instance();
        
        log_message('debug', 'My_Form_validation loaded');
    }
    
    public function tester_valid($var) {
/* doesn't matter, the class never loads! /*
}

The function is empty for now. Like I said, the class is never found by CI, as proved by log:

Code:

Im using CI 2.1.0, and in the previous version of ci there was no problem..

The really weird part is that other classes with 'MY_' prefix loads just fine, and I can't for the world figure why this particular one doesn't.

Please help me!
