Problem with ZF URL

GeoffreyB · #1 (**permalink**) 12-26-2007, 10:30 PM

I am a real newbie. I am having a problem with ZF URLs.

Setup: Apache has an alias to the iris/html directory in my development area. My directory structure for this application is -

Code:

iris/application/controllers
                               /models
                               /views/filters
                                        /helpers
                                        /scripts/error
                                                  /index
                                                  /user
              /html/images
                      /scripts
                      /styles
              /library

.htaccess file in iris/html reads:

Code:

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

index.php is in iris/html and reads:

Code:

<?php
/**
 * My new Zend Framework project
 *
 * @author
 * @version
 */

set_include_path('.' . PATH_SEPARATOR . './library' . PATH_SEPARATOR . './application/models/' . PATH_SEPARATOR . get_include_path());
require_once 'Zend/Controller/Front.php';
error_reporting( E_ALL | E_STRICT );

/*
 * Register an autoload() callback.  This is optional but very handy.
 */
require_once 'Zend/Loader.php';
Zend_Loader::registerAutoload();

$appDir = dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/application';
Zend_Registry::set('appdir', $appDir);

$config = new Zend_Config_Ini("$appDir/etc/config.ini",'main');
Zend_Registry::set('config', $config);


/*
 * This application uses a database, and our config file contains some
 * parameters to connect to the database.  Once we create this database
 * adapter, save it in the registry and also tell the table class where
 * to find it.
 */
$db = Zend_Db::factory(
    $config->database->adapter,
    $config->database->params->toArray()
);

/*
 * The database we're using has utf-8 characters, so encode them properly
 */
$db->query('SET NAMES utf8');

/*
 * Save this database connection in a place where other classes can find it.
 */
Zend_Registry::set('defaultDb', $db);
Zend_Db_Table::setDefaultAdapter('defaultDb');
/**
 * Setup controller
 */
$controller = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$controller->setControllerDirectory("$appDir/controllers");
$controller->throwExceptions(true); // should be turned on in development time

// run!
$controller->dispatch();

My problem is that to access the index page I have to type the full url -

Code:

http://localhost/iris/index.php

Code:

http://localhost/iris/

gives me a

Code:

400 Bad Request

Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.

response.
Like wise from the login form

Code:

<form name="form1" method="post" action="/iris/user/login">

produces the same 400 response.
Has anyone got some ideas about what I can do to fix this.

Hi Geoffrey,

Try removing one of the back-slashes in your .htaccess and see if that helps.

Also, does your Apache error log give any clues?

Thanks,
Al.

Thank you. This has fixed another issue, the /styles/style.css file is now being applied.
I can now access the index page using http://localhost/iris/index but still not via http://localhost/iris/ and likewise the other pages eg http://localhost/iris/user/login.

Apache error.log doesn't help too much

Code:

[Fri Dec 28 13:34:07 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Invalid URI in request GET /iris/ HTTP/1.0
[Fri Dec 28 13:37:29 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Invalid URI in request POST /iris/user/login HTTP/1.0, referer: http://localhost/iris/index.php

Any other ideas greatly appreciated.

Geoffrey

I have the exact same setup with an Alias and running into the very same problem. I can get to the page fine via http://localhost/alias/index.php, but getting 400 Bad Reqests on any other requests such as http://localhost/alias/ or http://localhost/alias/index/index.

Any ideas?

Of course after searching for at least an hour, I find the solution 2 minutes after posting.

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