Default Controller not working

[eluser]Marcelo Reborn[/eluser]
Hello,

My default Controller works locally, on my PC (Windows), but not on it's (Linux) server.

In config/routes.php I did set it to "Login", which is a existing class, named as Login.php, but even trying with another classes names, it doesn't works.

Code:

$route['default_controller'] = "Login";

In config/config.php I did set base url correctly:

Code:

$config['base_url'] = "http://mypage.com/projetos/aquarelaFilmes/";

Accessing http://mypage.com/projetos/aquarelaFilmes/ results in:

Code:

404 Page Not Found

The page you requested was not found.

But, it works if I try http://mypage.com/projetos/aquarelaFilme....php/Login


Is there any way that I can debug (using echo or something else) what is the class/url it's trying to load? Maybe then I can discover what is happening.


Happy new year!
Thanks in advance

If it is not working without the index.php then you need to modify your .htaccess

User Guide

Hope this helps!

It's not working with or without the index.php. Only works when I access the class.

Working:
http://mypage.com/projetos/aquarelaFilmes/index.php/Login

Not working (it's the same...):
http://mypage.com/projetos/aquarelaFilmes/
http://mypage.com/projetos/aquarelaFilmes/index.php

I'm sorry about that, I didn't understand the initial problem. In your config.php file you change

$config['log_threshold'] = 4;

then in your log files (system/logs) it should show you which controller it tried accessing

Thanks, Mike!

Now I had some advance!

Code:

ERROR - 2011-01-02 14:28:22 --> 404 Page Not Found --> login

It's trying to load "login", but I set to load "Login"!
I think CI is "uncapitalizing" controller's name.

Now I have to uncapitalize all my controller filenames and urls references.

The issue is not with CI but Linux. You will need to have filename starting with small on linux servers.

CI was uncapitalizing a string with "Login" value, set as default controller value.
Wasn't a Linux issue, because everything was working fine.

I had a file named Login.php, which as working fine through "www.page.com/Login/function".
If the default controller was called correctly by CI, it would be working fine too.

I guess you still have not read the CodeIGniter User Guide!

CodeIgniter User Guide - Controllers

Let's create a simple controller so you can see it in action. Using your text editor,
create a file called blog.php, and put the following code in it:
As you see above the filename is saved as all lowercase!

Note: Class names must start with an uppercase letter. In other words, this is valid:

Code:

<?php
class Blog extends Controller {

}
?>

This is not valid:

Code:

<?php
class blog extends Controller {

}
?>

InsideFX,

I thank you, but, did you read all posts? My problem is already solved!

And, by the way, I just made that mistake because in another topic I've created, I got confused with your post, which wrote about Library, when I was asking about controller classes.

I'm going to read all the user guide ten times today, ok? :roll:
