I am fairly new to Zend Framework. We have been using it fairly successfully, but since we moved to a new Linux server (was on windows - no comments please) we are having issues when we add a new file, specifically a new view file.

The error is of the type:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Zend_View_Exception' with message 'script 'travel/index.phtml' not found in path (application/views/scripts/)'...

This file is there, and is referenced correctly by the controller. If we change the owner of the file to www-data, it works. When we upload the file, it is uploaded as portadmin user in the portedit group (these is a user/group we created). The www-data user is also in the portedit group as far as I can tell.

If I load a file in our Public folder not controlled by Zend, it works just fine without changing the owner.

So my question is, does ZF require the files to have www-data as the owner? If not, ny other ideas as to what may be going on?

The ownership in actuality does not appear to be defendant on the files, but on the file directory, so if the files are owned by portedit but the view/scripts directory is www-data, then the page works fine.

Try putting index.phtml as Index.phtml. I had a similar problem a few days ago. Worked locally fine (running it locally on windows with XAMPP installed), but when i put it on a linux server it didn't work. I think all your filenames are supposed to start with a capital letter?

Try it.. it might work

No, only controller and model files are supposed to be capitalized. View scripts should be lowercase.
