This is done because I need to have links such as the following: www.domain.com/clients/index www.domain.com/clients/subscribe www.domain.com/clients/jobs/index I know I can just create an index controller and a subscribe controller as part of the clients module but it would be neater if I was able to create a clients controller as part of the default module that then just has actions for index and subscribe and then create the jobs controller as part of the clients module. Is it possible to configure the framework to work this way? Use a custom route to map the URLs you want to the appropriate actions in the module's index controller. Thanks Matthew, I tried setting up a custom route using a configuration file but I'm getting a strange result. Here is my configuration file content for the route: routes.clientslogin.type = "Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Static" routes.clientslogin.route = "login" routes.clientslogin.defaults.module = "clients" routes.clientslogin.defaults.controller = "index" routes.clientslogin.defaults.action = "" And here is the error message I get: Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Zend_Controller_Dispatcher_Exception' with message 'Invalid controller specified (clients)' I know that it is using the configuration setting because if I remove the module setting it throws an error message saying that the login action cannot be found on the default index controller. It seems that the module setting is being used as the controller. Many thanks, Charles Solved the problem, turns out one of my auth controller plugin was altering the request module incorrectly on the preDispatch call. Doh! Where would we be without debuggers!
