Unable to Find model?

[eluser]amw_drizz[/eluser]
Okay, here is the issue I am running into. On my windows xp development machine running Apache 2.2 with PHP 5.2.6 everything works fine. But when I upload it to my live site which is hosted with vlexo.com runing linux with apache 1.3 and suPHP 5.2.6



When uploaded, I loose the models, all the files are there. But the site doesn't work. But the same code that isn't altered much except for changing the site root / base url to the that of my live site.

But on my live site, it no longer loads, it just says unable to load model.

Please paste the code for one of the models that doesn't work.

Cut off, the full file is too long but you get the geist

What's the exact error message you're getting? Is it "Unable to locate the model you have specified: <Model Name>"?

If so, the only three things I know of that could cause the problem are:
Invalid application path in config.php
Incorrect file permissions.
The file really doesn't exist.

Try loading the model file with a simple include(), see if it works then.

Code:

include(APPPATH . 'models/MODEL_NAME.php');

My final verdict is that your file names are not lowercase like they're supposed to be. Windows doesn't care about filename case, Linux filenames are case sensitive.

Now I got
Fatal error: Class 'Model' not found in /home/jonwebv/public_html/test/system/application/models/ThemeHandler.php on line 13

[eluser]amw_drizz[/eluser]
oops, that would explain some of it, themehandler.php is actually ThemeHandler.php

[eluser]TheFuzzy0ne[/eluser]
So you've solved the problem?

[eluser]amw_drizz[/eluser]
soon as I changed all calls to lower case it now works.

Best to stick to the naming conventions spelled out in the User Guide. Glad you got it worked out
