cakephp-2.2

I am using Cakephp framework 2.2.2. I want to create a personalized URL for the user. For example, if a user enters username=pragnesh , then they can access my site like: http://pragnesh.mylocalhost.com , same as in blinksale.com My URL: http://mylocalhost.com/test/users/front_home I want to access it at: http://test.mylocalhost.com/users/front_home My URL: http://mylocalhost.com/test/setting/pages can be accessed at: http://test.mylocalhost.com/setting/pages any URL: http://mylocalhost.com/test/xxxxx/xxxxx can be accessed at : http://test.mylocalhost.com/xxxxx/xxxxx OR URL: http://mylocalhost

I'm getting this error: Error: [CakeSessionException] Unable to configure the session, setting session.auto_start failed. I'm using Cakephp 2.2.4. EDIT It seems this guy had the same issue: Cakephp Session error on live site and using this if(!isset($_SESSION)) session_start(); inside beforefilter method of AppController fix the error. So my question is: why this happened? Everything was working fine and then suddendly this error appeared. Additionally I've realized that the folder app/tmp/sessions is empty and I have configured the session to be handled by Cake (in Config/core.php ). In PHP

What's the way to have a global variable inside a controller? I have tried to do it using beforeFilter but it is not accessible from the others functions. Can it only be done using Configure::read and Configure::write you can set variable accessible in any controller in your AppController class AppController extends Controller { public $myGlobalVar; public function beforeFilter() { //this can be anything array, object, string, etc ..... $this->myGlobalVar = "test2"; } } then in your other controller you can access variable anywhere like this class TestController extends AppController { public

I'm developing a CakePHP 2.2 site locally with MAMP. Every so often, I get one or more warnings similar to this, about not being able to write to one or more cache files: Warning: SplFileInfo::openFile(/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/mywebsite/www/app/tmp/cache/persistent/myapp_cake_core_cake_console_en-au): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/mywebsite/www/lib/Cake/Cache/Engine/FileEngine.php on line 313 The weird thing is, /tmp is 777, tmp/cache is 777, and tmp/cache/persistent is 777 (don't worry... it won't be 777 on the server!). The file itself inside tmp

I am looking to load values from my database in my /app/Config/routes.php configuration file. At the top I am using: App::uses('Option', 'Model'); And I am calling my find in my class: $this->Option->find('all'); Am I missing something? I think you have to instantiate the model before you use it: App::uses('Option', 'Model'); $option = new Option(); $something = $option->find('all'); I wouldn't put any database queries in Routes. It's not the place for them (separation of concerns etc). It will also slow down every request and the routes shouldn't be changing all that frequently. What I've

I know there are a couple of other topics about this subject, but non of them seems to fit my needs. What I have example.com/log/ LogsController.php I have LogsController instead of LogController (plural) because CakePHP wants you to have controllers in plural. But as you might know/notice, example.com/log/ will never use LogsController because of the missing 's' in the url. Now, I want to have /log/* being redirected to /logs/* . Works perfectly fine with the following code: Router::connect ('/log/*', array('controller'=>'logs')); But, when I try to access example.com/log/actions/foo/bar it
