Ok I tried to follow this example.
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/taking-advantage-of-the-pages-controller
to get rid of the pages name
but my problem is I didn't know where to put this.
$Route->connect('/*', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' =>
'display'));
so i just tried to go straight to the route.php file and do this as my
last thing in the file:
Router::connect('/*', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' =>
'display'));
but when I do that i get an empty page, I mean completely empty.
so has anybody else had this issue?
I have a hunch it may have something to do with my .htaccess file but
I have not been a server admin long so I don't fully understand
modrewrite too well.
This is my web root .htacces file.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
I tried to change the last RewriteRule to say
^(.*)$ PATH_TO_MY_APP/index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
and
^(.*)$ PATH_TO_MY_WEB_ROOT/index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
and still nothing.
//this is my app htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ webroot/ [L]
RewriteRule (.*) webroot/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
//this is all that is not commented out in router.php
Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' =>
'display', 'home'));
Router::connect('/*', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' =>
'display'));
when I have
Router::connect('/pages/*', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' =>
'display'));
everything works fine but I have /pages/nameOfPage for all of my
static page.
Can anybody please help me?
for reference I have the advanced setup. (
cake in:
/usr/lib/cake/
and my apps go in:
/home/myname/CakeApps/NameOfApp
and then the webroot part :
/var/www/nameOfApp
using Apache2, PHP5 Ubuntu 7.10 Athlon64, 2 gig ram, som HD space.
logitech keyboard and mouse, old Altec Lansing speaker, on a homade
desk, with a Santa cup of Coffee made by maxwell house. if you need
any more information you are problably just being nosy.
thanks in advance.
