Question

I’m new to zend, so I’m working through this tutorial here. If you skip to about 1:10, he creates a new contoller, and then types the name of it in the url.
This brings up the appropriate view. All good. However, when I do it I get a big NOT FOUND and this ‘The requested URL /cube was not found on this server‘.
Any ideas on what I’m doing wrong.

Sorry if this is a little vague, if you need more details, let me know.

Here’s a few you may need:

Server: Xampp

OS: Windows Vista 32bit

Zend version: 1.11.6

Answer 1

Do you have correctly configured .htaccess file in the project’s root directory? Take a look at this. You have to have mod_rewrite enabled in Apache. This can be done by editing the httpd.conf file, which should be in the Apache installation folder. Then you should add a .htaccess file into the root folder of you project with the following content:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule !\.(js|ico|txt|gif|jpg|png|css)$ index.php

Or alternatively one can use ZF without mod_rewrite. To do so, configure front controller this way:

Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->setBaseUrl('/url/to/app/index.php')
