Thread: Fatal error: Class 'Form_BugReport' not found

Hi,

I've been working though the Apress book 'Pro Zend Framework Techniques'. I've hit a point where I am trying to render the form on a view.

The form is called 'BugReport', which is located at 'forms/BugReportForm.php'; here is the contents of the file:

Code:

<?php

class Form_BugReportForm extends Zend_Form
{
	public function init()
	{
		// add element: author textbox
		$author = this->createElement('text', 'author');
		$author->setLabel('Enter your name:');
		$author->setRequired(TRUE);
		$author->setAttrib('size', 30);
		$this->addElement($author);
		
		// add element: email textbox
		$email = $this->createElement('text', 'email');
		$email->setLabel('Your email address:');
		$email->setRequired(TRUE);
		$email->addValidator(new Zend_Validate_EmailAddress());
		$email->addFilters(array(
			new Zend_Filter_StringTrim(),
			new Zend_Filter_StringToLower()
			));
		$email = setAttrib('size', 40);
		$this->addElement($email);
		
		// add element: date textbox
		$date = $this->createElement('text', 'date');
		$date->setLabel('Date the issue occurred (dd-mm-yyyy)');
		$date->setRequired(TRUE);
		$date->addValidator(new Zend_Validate_Date('MM-DD-YYYY'));
		$date->setAttrib('size', 20);
		$this->addElement($date);
		
		// add element: URL textbox
		$url = $this->createElement('text', 'url');
		$url->setLabel('Issue URL:');
		$url->setRequired(TRUE);
		$url->setAttrib('size', 50);
		$this->addElement($url);
		
		// add element: description text area
		$description = $this->createElement('textarea', 'description');
		$description->setLabel('Issue description:');
		$description->setRequired(TRUE);
		$description->setAttrib('cols', 50);
		$description->setAttrib('rows', 4);
		$this->addElement($description);
		
		// add element: priority select box
		$priority = $this->createElement('select', 'priority');
		$priority->setLabel('Issue priority:');
		$priority->setRequired(TRUE);
		$priority->addMultiOptions(array(
			'low'	=>	'Low',
			'med'	=>	'Medium',
			'high'	=>	'High'
			));
		$this->addElement($priority);
		
		// add element: status select box
		$status = $this->createElement('select', 'status');
		$status->setLabel('Current status:');
		$status->setRequired(TRUE);
		$status->addMultiOptions(array(
			'new'			=>	'New',
			'in_progress'	=>	'In Progress',
			'resolved'		=>	'Resolved'
			));
		$this->addElement($status);
		
		// add element: submit button
		$this->addElement('submit', 'submit', array('label' => 'Submit'));
	}
}

This form in controlled via the 'BugController' controller located at '/controllers/BugController.php'

Code:

<?php

class BugController extends Zend_Controller_Action
{

    public function init()
    {
        /* Initialize action controller here */
    }

    public function indexAction()
    {
        // action body
    }

    public function createAction()
    {
        // action body
    }
	
	public function submitAction()
	{
		$frmBugReport = new Form_BugReport();
		$frmBugReport->setAction('/bug/submit');
		$frmBugReport->setMethod('post');
		$this->view->form = $frmBugReport();
	}

}

And finally I have the following autoloaders in my bootstrap.

Code:

protected function _initAutoload()
	{
		// Add autoloader empty namespace
		$autoLoader = Zend_Loader_Autoloader::getInstance();
		$resourceLoader = new Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource(array(
			'basePath'		=> APPLICATION_PATH,
			'namespace'		=> '',
			'resourceTypes'	=> array(
				'form'	=> array(
					'path'		=> 'forms/',
					'namespace'	=> 'Form_',
				)
			),
		));
		
		// Return it so it can be stored by the bootstrap
		return $autoLoader;
	}

The error I am getting can be seen here: http://zend.danielgroves.net/bug/submit

Or, if you'd rather just read it: Fatal error: Class 'Form_BugReport' not found in /home/www-data/zend.danielgroves.net/htdocs/application/controllers/BugController.php on line 23

Any ideas on what I've done wrong, and so how this can be fixed?

Thanks in advance,

Dan.
