Question

That is my Controller Helper:

class Application_Controller_Helper_Test extends Zend_Controller_Action_Helper_Abstract
{
    public function preDispatch()
    {
        $this->_helper->redirector->gotoUrl('/index/index');
        // ...
    }

But have error, which I can’t fix:

Call to a member function gotoUrl() on a non-object

If you want to redirect from an action helper, you have to retrieve the redirector helper from the helper broker. The following snippet will redirect to index/index.

$controller = $request->getControllerName();
$action = $request->getActionName();

// Prevent redirection loop
if ($controller.'/'.$action !== 'index/index') {
    $redirector = Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('Redirector');
    $redirector->gotoSimpleAndExit('index', 'index', 'default');
}
