Zend Url and case-sensitive module name

Question

I am writing a Zend application.

I am using the zend command line tool. I created a couple of Default and User modules and marked Default as the default controller in the application configuration file. I also created appropriate index controllers / actions for these two modules.

When I look at the root of the site, everything is in order. But when I look at $site_root$/user , instead of getting information about the index controller, I get errors.

 Notice: Undefined index: user in E:\xampp\php\PEAR\Zend\Controller\Dispatcher\Standard.php on line 384 Message: Invalid controller specified (index) Stack trace: #0 E:\xampp\php\PEAR\Zend\Controller\Front.php(954): Zend_Controller_Dispatcher_Standard->dispatch(Object(Zend_Controller_Request_Http), Object(Zend_Controller_Response_Http)) #1 E:\xampp\php\PEAR\Zend\Application\Bootstrap\Bootstrap.php(97): Zend_Controller_Front->dispatch() #2 E:\xampp\php\PEAR\Zend\Application.php(366): Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap->run() #3 E:\xampp\htdocs\$project$\public\index.php(26): Zend_Application->run() #4 {main} Request Parameters: array ( 'module' => 'user', 'controller' => 'index', 'action' => 'index', ) 

However, when I browse $site_root$/user , everything is OK again. Obviously, the URL must be case sensitive in order to display the module name. I thought of something like this, like re-writing the Zend Request class. But what is the best practice of getting the lowercase module name in the url?

Edit 1: Folder structure:

Answer 1

Check the Zend class Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract in the file Zend \ Controller \ Request \ Abstract.php. If there are several modules in a ZF application, you should add ucfirst()

 public function getModuleName() { if (null === $this->_module) { $this->_module = $this->getParam($this->getModuleKey()); } return ucfirst($this->_module); } 

Answer 2

Perhaps the problem is that you are installing the default module "Default" not "Default" ? Also, the name of your folder should be lowercase, but I never used the command line, so maybe I'm wrong. Rename all module folders to lowercase.

Depending on the OS and Server, there are probably some business requirements.

For example, Windows vs linux Paths. On a Linux drive, Paths are case sensitive, and servers, such as the Apahe path structure, are based on the drive path. Any operation associated with the basic disk I / O operation requires strict definition of file names.

Also for URLS, it depends on the server implementation and possibly the plugins. For example, Apache Http is usually case-sensitive, but you can enable mod_spelling ( http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_speling.html ) to make it spell correctly in URLs, for example, in case of work .

It is always good practice to be strict in the names of file / class / method / .... It is also recommended that you use a template (native or not) to be more efficient in your code and structure.
