Question

I just managed to create a project using Zend_Tool, but I am stuck on “second step” – enabling layout.

zf enable layout

leads to:

An Error Has Occurred
Action ‘enable’ is not a valid action.

This is my folder structure:

|--library
|  |--Zend         //framework classes in this folder
|
|--bin             //command line tool folder
|  --zf.sh
|  --zf.php
|  --zf.exe
|
|--zend_test       //my test project folder
|  |--application
|  |--library
|  |  --Zend       //symlink to ../../library/Zend
|  |--public
|  |--tests

The library folder is in my include_path. Checked with:

php -i | grep include_path

Note that I was able to create the project with zf create project zend_test and other actions like show work.

There are some ppl on the official Zend Framework forum with same problem, but there are no answers.

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

I solved the problem.

It was coincidence, what led to this error. At first I was unable to even run the tool because I couldn’t set include_path (because of permissions). After that there was a problem with (most likely) out-of-date php. (original question is here)

After few hours of headache I deleted the tool and left ZF for a while. Two days ago I wanted to try that on updated server, but coulnd’t find the tool so I downloaded it again. Unfortunatelly (for me) Zend released new version of framework and I extracted only the tool.

Briefly

There was a mismatch in versions of the tool (bin) and the framework (library) or possibly the library folder was corrupted.

Solution
Download and extract the whole ZF again to make sure the versions match and files are not corrupted. Also double check the include_path with php -i | grep include_path
