I was just starting to learn cakephp today by going through a blog tutorial.

  • 0

I was just starting to learn cakephp today by going through a “blog tutorial”. I created my blog_controller.php and then created a folder named ‘blog’ with the apps/views/ structure. The next step in the tutorial was to create the index.ctp file within the blog folder under views. In the tutorial it declares that all error messages should be gone. However, I still receive an error message:

Error: The view for
BlogController::index() was not found.

Error: Confirm you have created the
file:
/Users/trippstephens/Dropbox/cakephp-cakephp1x-348e5f0/app/views/blog/index.ctp

For the life of me, I can not figure out what I have done wrong. I am running cakephp under MAMP and it “installed” successfully. Any help would be appreciated.

    Looks like you have a couple of conventions issues going on here:

    1. Your controller should be plural: BlogsController with file name blogs_controller.
    2. Your views should exist in app/views/blogs/ (note the plural)

    Your model should be singular (Blog), but that may already be the case (you don’t include any model info).
