CodeIgniter not able to instantiate controller class - codeigniter

So I'm trying to troubleshoot why CodeIgniter won't display any output (except for 404's and such). I've checked everything from error logging in php and apache and codeigniter, to the module rewriting. Everything seems to be configured just fine.
I started to dive into the CodeIgniter core files and noticed that it was crashing on the line below that tries to instantiate the requested controller class:
$class = $RTR->fetch_class();
$method = $RTR->fetch_method();
echo 'looking for class: ' . $class . '<br/>';
if(class_exists($class) == false) {
)
{
echo 'class does not exist: ' . $class;
show_404("{$class}/{$method}");
}
}
/*
* ------------------------------------------------------
* Is there a "pre_controller" hook?
* ------------------------------------------------------
*/
$EXT->_call_hook('pre_controller');
echo '<br/>after precontroller';
/*
* ------------------------------------------------------
* Instantiate the requested controller
* ------------------------------------------------------
*/
// Mark a start point so we can benchmark the controller
$BM->mark('controller_execution_time_( '.$class.' / '.$method.' )_start');
echo '<br/>before class init: ' . $class;
$CI = new $class();
echo '<br/>after class init';
This is within the /core/CodeIgniter.php file. Here is the output:
CodeIgniter.php
looking for class: servicecontroller
after precontroller
before class init: servicecontroller
Basically it's telling me that it can find the servicecontroller class, but when it tries to instantiate it, it crashes. php error logging is enabled, and display_errors is on. If I force a php error anywhere near here, I see it on the page, but not this one. Does anyone have any idea why it can't get past this line?
servicecontroller.php is arranged like this:
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class servicecontroller extends CI_Controller {
}

Okay, the root of this problem was an error connecting to the database using mysql_connect. For some reason, it would not produce any error whatsoever, nor would "or die("error..."); do anything. This was because we were using php 5.4 on the server, and mysql_connect does not seem to be supported anymore, unless you have mysqlnd installed. The solution was to switch our database driver to 'mysqli', which CodeIgniter luckily has a driver for, and then install php5-mysql with: apt-get install php5-mysql
Hope this helps anyone else.

I have solved my issue.
Open your: config/database.php
Find: $db['default']['dbdriver'] = 'mysqli';
Replace that with: $db['default']['dbdriver'] = 'mysql';
Or, enable the "mysqli" extension in PHP.

Nothing to do in core system folder.
Update system folder to the latest one
Check .htaccess file within the index.php folder
Check your config/route.php file
If in host check mod_rewrite apache module is enabled

I had this problem using Expression Engine, the issue was the database connection -- I am using Vagrant so I had to set the port in the database config file and then it worked.

/vendor/autoload.php error while running laravel

so im new to laravel, just downloaded composer, created new project through terminal in vscode, tried to run it and this error shows up
Error in localhost>public
The Code:
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
and also getting errors while compiling on these:
$response = $kernel->handle(
$request = Request::capture() //Undefined type 'Illuminate\Http\Request'//
)->send();
the illuminate code:
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
Help would be appreciated
You should have following code for autoload.php. Basically, you're trying to look for vendor directory in the public folder, whereas it is normally placed in the base directory
require __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';
Did you try running a composer update command?
Re-installed everything in the same (C) directory and its working great now
Appreciate the help, thank you, everyone!

Target class [App\Http\Controllers\welcome] does not exist. error in laravel 6

I am getting Target class [App\Http\Controllers\welcome] does not exist error in laravel 6. everything seems okay.
in routes/web.php
Route::get('/','welcome#index');
Welcome.php file everything was working fine on localhost but when I uploaded on the server getting that error.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\Constant_model;
class Welcome extends Controller
{
public function index(){
$snippets = Constant_model::getDataAllWithLimit('snippets',"id",'DESC',10);
$data = array(
'title'=>'Mytitle',
'description'=>'Hello',
'seo_keywords'=>'',
'snippets'=>$snippets
);
return view('welcome',$data);
}
}
Since your controller class is named Welcome, your route parameter should be spelled identically, including capitalization:
Route::get('/','welcome#index');
Should be:
Route::get('/','Welcome#index');
Traditionally, Unix-like operating systems treat file case-sensitively while Microsoft Windows is case-insensitive.
That's why it worked on your local environment (you probably have a Windows machine) but failed on your server (likely running Linux).

Unable to get laravel/database and restler working with versioning

I have an existing website up and running, and now I want to add a REST interface to it in an api subdirectory. I'm not able to get this to work with versioning. I installed like so (no errors):
$ php ~/bin/composer.phar create-project laravel/database --prefer-dist api
$ cd api
$ php ~/bin/composer.phar require restler/framework 3.0.0-RC6
Then I uncommented the lines in public/index.php related to Restler and add a new API class that just echos a string. If I run this via php artisan serve and look at it through the localhost URL, then the method works.
Now I want to enable versioning, so I added these lines to public/index.php
use Luracast\Restler\Defaults;
Defaults::$useUrlBasedVersioning = true;
And in app/controllers I created a v1 directory and moved Test.php into that. I also added a namespace directive to the file of the format namespace A\B\v1
When I restart the artisan server and query the API, I get a 404 error. I've tried as both http://localhost:8000/Test and http://localhost:8000/v1/Test
What have I forgotten to do?
Here is how I made it to work. Note the folder where I placed the api class file.
in index.php
use Luracast\Restler\Restler;
use Luracast\Restler\Defaults;
Defaults::$useUrlBasedVersioning = true;
$r = new Restler();
$r->addAPIClass('A\B\Test');
Test.php kept in app/controllers/A/B/v1/Test.php
<?php namespace A\B\v1;
class Test
{
public function get()
{
return 'working';
}
}
Both http://localhost:8000/v1/test and http://localhost:8000/test return "working"

phpunit cannot find Class, PHP Fatal error

I get phpunit and install it as this link using the simplest way for test purposes.
I just download the phpunit.phar file, chmod & rename & move to /usr/local/bin Then, I run phpunit --version, its ok.
PHPUnit 3.7.27 by Sebastian Bergmann
I write a simple test
public function testSomething(){
$this -> assertTrue(true)
}
Then I go into the source file folder, phpunit --colors Test
It works. So, I decide write a complex demo.
My project folder structure is like this.
Project Name
--> app
--> api
--> tests
Now I write a simple class in app/api/FlyApi.php
<?php
class FlyApi {
public function makeFly(){
//do something else
}
}
Then I write another test class for FlyApi.php
<?php
class FlyApiTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase {
public function testFly(){
//new a FlyApi
$flyApi = new FlyApi();
//do something
}
}
At this line $flyApi = new FlyApi() I got the error.
PHP Fatal error: Class 'FlyApi' not found in /home/kevin/Workspace/fly/app/api/FlyApi.php on line 23
Yes, this line $flyApi = new FlyApi()
You didn't load the definition of your FlyApi class.
This solution is Laravel specific:
You should be extending TestCase rather than PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase.
Try adding your /api/ folder into your ClassLoader at app\start\global.php.
You will find this section:
ClassLoader::addDirectories(array(
app_path().'/commands',
app_path().'/controllers',
...
app_path().'/api/
));
Are you using Laravel's phpunit.xml file? It includes Laravel's (and Composer's) autoload.php file which lets you use all your autoloaded classes within it.
Finally, what's the whole error? It should (hopefully) tell you what class it's trying to load (which will give you clues if the namespace is wrong or something).

Integrating Doctrine with CodeIgniter

I have successfully installed the latest version of CodeIgniter and have basic MVC pattern working. The problem that I've noticed is that CI doesn't naturally allow for prepared statements when it comes to queries. So, I decided to download Doctrine 1 from GitHub. I'm very new to Doctrine and needed some help integrating it with CI so I followed this tutorial.
In one of my controllers, I have
$this->load->library('doctrine');
$this->em = $this->doctrine->em;
But, when I go to load the view in my browser, I'm greeted with an error reading
Message: require_once(/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/CodeIgniter/application/libraries/Doctrine/Common/ClassLoader.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory
Upon further inspection of the Doctrine download from GitHub, there doesn't even seem to be a folder titled "common" anywhere in there. I'm very new to CI and especially Doctrine. Does anyone have some advice that can help me get this working? Also, is it possible to use the MySQLi driver instead of the PDO one with Doctrine?
Downloading the Doctrine ORM straight from GitHub doesn't include the other dependencies. These are managed by Composer. If you look inside the composer.json file you can see these dependencies. If you want to install them manually, they are:
doctrine/common
doctrine/inflector
doctrine/cache
doctrine/collections
doctrine/lexer
doctrine/annotations
doctrine/dbal
symfony/console
I believe that's all of them. You will have to merge these files in their appropriate directories as they follow PSR-0 standards for the autoloading of classes.
Alternatively, install Doctrine 2 with Composer with the following composer.json file and any other dependencies will be installed automatically. Then integrate with CodeIgniter.
{
"minimum-stability": "stable",
"require": {
"doctrine/orm": "2.3.*"
}
}
Edit the index.php file of your CodeIgniter app by adding a single line to include the autoloader file before requiring the CodeIgniter core.
require_once BASEPATH.'../vendor/autoload.php';
require_once BASEPATH.'core/CodeIgniter.php';
Also if installing with Composer, use this edited version of the bootstrap as the contents of application/libraries/Doctrine.php, which is what worked for me
<?php
use Doctrine\Common\ClassLoader,
Doctrine\ORM\Tools\Setup,
Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager;
class Doctrine
{
public $em;
public function __construct()
{
// Load the database configuration from CodeIgniter
require APPPATH . 'config/database.php';
$connection_options = array(
'driver' => 'pdo_mysql',
'user' => $db['default']['username'],
'password' => $db['default']['password'],
'host' => $db['default']['hostname'],
'dbname' => $db['default']['database'],
'charset' => $db['default']['char_set'],
'driverOptions' => array(
'charset' => $db['default']['char_set'],
),
);
// With this configuration, your model files need to be in application/models/Entity
// e.g. Creating a new Entity\User loads the class from application/models/Entity/User.php
$models_namespace = 'Entity';
$models_path = APPPATH . 'models';
$proxies_dir = APPPATH . 'models/Proxies';
$metadata_paths = array(APPPATH . 'models');
// Set $dev_mode to TRUE to disable caching while you develop
$config = Setup::createAnnotationMetadataConfiguration($metadata_paths, $dev_mode = true, $proxies_dir);
$this->em = EntityManager::create($connection_options, $config);
$loader = new ClassLoader($models_namespace, $models_path);
$loader->register();
}
}
Note: Version 3 of CodeIgniter when released, will be installable with Composer, but version 2 is not.
For those looking for a tutorial to integrate Doctrine 2 with CodeIgniter, this question and others answers are outdated (for CI 2).
This is a new tutorial for CI 3 I made and I checked is working:
How to install Doctrine 2 in CodeIgniter 3
I repeat it here.
Install Doctrine
Doctrine 2 ORM’s documentation - Installation and Configuration
Doctrine can be installed with Composer.
Define the following requirement in your composer.json file:
{
"require": {
"doctrine/orm": "*"
}
}
Then call composer install from your command line.
Integrating with CodeIgniter
Doctrine 2 ORM’s documentation - Integrating with CodeIgniter
Here are the steps:
Add a php file to your system/application/libraries folder called Doctrine.php. This is going to be your wrapper/bootstrap for the D2 entity manager.
Put the Doctrine folder (the one that contains Common, DBAL, and ORM) inside the third_party folder.
If you want, open your config/autoload.php file and autoload your Doctrine library: $autoload[‘libraries’] = array(‘doctrine’);
Creating your Doctrine CodeIgniter library
Now, here is what your Doctrine.php file should look like. Customize it to your needs.
<?php
/**
* Doctrine 2.4 bootstrap
*
*/
use Doctrine\Common\ClassLoader,
Doctrine\ORM\Configuration,
Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager,
Doctrine\Common\Cache\ArrayCache,
Doctrine\DBAL\Logging\EchoSQLLogger;
class Doctrine {
public $em = null;
public function __construct()
{
// load database configuration from CodeIgniter
require_once APPPATH.'config/database.php';
// include Doctrine's ClassLoader class
require_once APPPATH.'third_party/Doctrine/Common/ClassLoader.php';
// load the Doctrine classes
$doctrineClassLoader = new ClassLoader('Doctrine', APPPATH.'third_party');
$doctrineClassLoader->register();
// load the entities
$entityClassLoader = new ClassLoader('Entities', APPPATH.'models');
$entityClassLoader->register();
// load the proxy entities
$proxiesClassLoader = new ClassLoader('Proxies', APPPATH.'models/proxies');
$proxiesClassLoader->register();
// load Symfony2 classes
// this is necessary for YAML mapping files and for Command Line Interface (cli-doctrine.php)
$symfonyClassLoader = new ClassLoader('Symfony', APPPATH.'third_party/Doctrine');
$symfonyClassLoader->register();
// Set up the configuration
$config = new Configuration;
// Set up caches
if(ENVIRONMENT == 'development') // set environment in index.php
// set up simple array caching for development mode
$cache = new \Doctrine\Common\Cache\ArrayCache;
else
// set up caching with APC for production mode
$cache = new \Doctrine\Common\Cache\ApcCache;
$config->setMetadataCacheImpl($cache);
$config->setQueryCacheImpl($cache);
// set up annotation driver
$driver = new \Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\Driver\PHPDriver(APPPATH.'models/Mappings');
$config->setMetadataDriverImpl($driver);
// Proxy configuration
$config->setProxyDir(APPPATH.'/models/Proxies');
$config->setProxyNamespace('Proxies');
// Set up logger
$logger = new EchoSQLLogger;
$config->setSQLLogger($logger);
$config->setAutoGenerateProxyClasses( TRUE ); // only for development
// Database connection information
$connectionOptions = array(
'driver' => 'pdo_mysql',
'user' => $db['default']['username'],
'password' => $db['default']['password'],
'host' => $db['default']['hostname'],
'dbname' => $db['default']['database']
);
// Create EntityManager, and store it for use in our CodeIgniter controllers
$this->em = EntityManager::create($connectionOptions, $config);
}
}
Setting up the Command Line Tool
Doctrine ships with a number of command line tools that are very helpful during development.
Check if these lines exists in the Doctrine.php file, to load Symfony classes for using the Command line tools (and for YAML mapping files):
$symfonyClassLoader = new ClassLoader('Symfony', APPPATH.'third_party/Doctrine');
$symfonyClassLoader->register();
You need to register your applications EntityManager to the console tool to make use of the tasks by creating a cli-doctrine.php file in the application directory with the following content:
<?php
/**
* Doctrine CLI bootstrap for CodeIgniter
*
*/
define('APPPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/');
define('BASEPATH', APPPATH . '/../system/');
define('ENVIRONMENT', 'development');
require APPPATH.'libraries/Doctrine.php';
$doctrine = new Doctrine;
$em = $doctrine->em;
$helperSet = new \Symfony\Component\Console\Helper\HelperSet(array(
'db' => new \Doctrine\DBAL\Tools\Console\Helper\ConnectionHelper($em->getConnection()),
'em' => new \Doctrine\ORM\Tools\Console\Helper\EntityManagerHelper($em)
));
\Doctrine\ORM\Tools\Console\ConsoleRunner::run($helperSet);
?>
Now run this script through the PHP command-line and should see a list of commands available to you.
php cli-doctrine.php
Generate mapping classes from database:
php cli-doctrine.php orm:convert-mapping --from-database annotation models/Entities
if you get this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function Doctrine\Common\Cache\apc_fetch()
install the APC extension for PHP:
sudo apt-get install php-apc
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
For production mode you'll want to use a real caching system like APC, get rid of EchoSqlLogger, and turn off autoGenerateProxyClasses in Doctrine.php
Find the link for the doctrine integration in CI
https://github.com/mitul69/codeigniter-doctrine-integration
Please note that code igniter 2 has a little difference in its code organization. In code igniter 2 it is better to put the Doctrine folder in application/third_party folder, instead of application/libraries folder (or else it will not work!).
You can read more about it here
I had the same problem when I tried to follow this tutorial from doctrine user guide
http://doctrine-orm.readthedocs.org/en/latest/cookbook/integrating-with-codeigniter.html
This problem happens when I tried to install via composer so then I went to this web site
http://www.doctrine-project.org/downloads/ and do manually download the DoctrineORM-2.3.3-full.tar.gz version and the error was gone.
The original poster's problem seems to be an issue with autoloading. I was presented with a similar issue when trying to set up CodeIgniter and Doctrine with Composer. In CodeIgniter 3, you can enable the use of composer autoloading, which should allow you to load all Doctrine files correctly. You must point your Composer vendor dir to application/vendor for this to work. You can also do it in older versions, but then you have to include the Composer autoload file manually in your Doctrine library file for CodeIgniter.
If you want more information: I wrote a blog post describing exactly how to do it. http://blog.beheist.com/integrating-codeigniter-and-doctrine-2-orm-with-composer/
you can use this
via composer :
composer create-project rbz/codeigniter your-project
via git :
git clone https://github.com/dandisy/cihmvctwig.git
