Question

I am having problems with modules, I searched the web but I can not get this to work.

This is my directory structure

Layout
application
  configs
  Modules
    default
        controllers
        models
        views
          helper
          scripts
             index
             error
        Bootstrap.php
    Bootstrap.php
docs
library
  DoctrineORM 2.1.5
test

My application.ini

[production]
phpSettings.display_startup_errors = 0
phpSettings.display_errors = 0
includePaths.library = APPLICATION_PATH "/../library"
bootstrap.path = APPLICATION_PATH "/Bootstrap.php"
bootstrap.class = "Bootstrap"
appnamespace = "Application"

resources.frontController.moduleDirectory = APPLICATION_PATH "/modules"
resources.modules[] =

resources.frontController.controllerDirectory = APPLICATION_PATH "/controllers"
resources.frontController.params.displayExceptions = 0

resources.router.routes.home.route = /home
resources.router.routes.home.default.module = default
resources.router.routes.home.default.controller = index
resources.router.routes.home.default.action = index

[staging : production]

[testing : production]
phpSettings.display_startup_errors = 1
phpSettings.display_errors = 1

[development : production]
phpSettings.display_startup_errors = 1
phpSettings.display_errors = 1
resources.frontController.params.displayExceptions = 1

My Bootstap.php (all Bootstrap.php files are the same)

class Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap

}

All I get is an blank page.

Within a module based ZF application, there are two different types of Bootstrap files: application bootstrap and module bootstrap. This Bootstrap.php in your application directory should look like:

class Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap {}

The Bootrap.php in each module directory should look like:

class ModuleName_Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap {}

(ModuleName should be replaced with the name of the module).

It is also advisible to define the default module name and whether the default module has a namespace prefix:

resources.frontController.defaultmodule = "example"
resources.frontController.params.prefixDefaultModule = 1

This tells the frontController that the default module is example and that all classes within that module are prefixed with Example_.
