Question

I know that there are countless threads about this, but I would appreciate a quick pointer to explain what I am missing here. I have a controller called Controller_Index_Orders which resides in /conroller/orders/index.php. It has one method action_index(). I then have the following Route code for it:

Route::set('orders', 'orders(/<action>)')
    ->defaults(array(
        'controller' => 'orders',
        'action'     => 'index',
    ));

When I go to baseUrl/orders/ or baseUrl/orders I am getting a 404. What am I missing here?

EDIT:

Controller_Orders is now in /controllers/orders.php Route as follows:

Route::set('orders', 'orders(/<action>)')
    ->defaults(array(
        'controller' => 'orders',
        'action'     => 'index',
    ));

Going to baseUrl/orders or baseUrl/orders/ still not functioning.

EDIT2:

Default Route.

Route::set(‘default’, ‘((/(/)))’)
->defaults(array(
‘controller’ => ‘index’,
‘action’ => ‘index’,
));

Your naming is all screwed up. If you have a controller called Controller_Index_Orders it should reside in classes/controller/index/orders.php. You’ll also need to specify the proper controller in your route: 'controller' => 'index_orders'. You might have to throw a directory key in there too.
