    Hi Bermi,

    I am new to frameworks. I have seen your blog screencasts. It was gr8. Thanks for creating such a wonderful framework. I thought of using akelos in my new project. I started trying to install the framework. But i am unable to. Right now, i am using xampp on windows server 2003. I have seen the manual instructions(booklink tutorial). But it wasn't really helpful. Please change the manual, so that it provides different instructions for different OS like windows, linux.. etc. I have installed xampp in c:/xampp. when i tried to run the cmd (C:/xampp/php/php.exe ./script/generate scaffold) in the ms-dos, its giving an error like : could not open input file: ./script/generate. So, can i know what the problem really is?

    waiting for your reply..

    Bermi,

    thanx for your reply.

    Now I am in the process of creating the blog. I have completed till script generate blog controller using the cmd: ./script/generate controller Blog.The files were created automatically. But i didn't get any fatal error which u got in the screencast(when u refreshed the browser). later i have edited the blog_controller.php to output the 'Hello world'. when i refreshed the page (http://localhost/blog/), i didn't output(Hello world) in the browser. It still continuous to show the 'Welcome aboard' message. Can u plz help me where i went wrong?

    Hi Bermi,
    The o/p 'hello world' is not displayed when i refresh the page 'http://localhost/blog/'. But when i add one more blog to the url like: 'http://localhost/blog/blog' , then the output 'Hello world' is being displayed. The file structure is as follows:

    C:/xampp/htdocs/blog/app/views/blog/index.tpl
    The actual place of akelos is: C:/dev/akelos/app
    xampp installation: C:/xampp/htdocs

    I am able to move further only if i add a blog at the end of the url: http://localhost/blog/blog/listing/.
    Its working well if i add double blog in the url.

    Can i know y this is due to?

    C:/xampp/htdocs/blog/app/views/blog/index.tpl

    Personally, I don't like this kind of setup.

    What I do:

    1. checkout framework to a say C:/dev/akelos
    2. let akelos generate your app-scaffold (script/setup) to c:/dev/booklink_ f.i.
    3. then edit the apache-conf (C:/xampp/apache/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf)

    either for the tutorial, setup an alias

    Alias /booklink "C:/Dev/booklink/public"
<Directory "C:/Dev/booklink/public">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

    or a vhost.

    then you get your app either at http://localhost/booklink or at http://my_vhost/

    Hi,

    when i tried to compile the cmd: ./script/migrate comment install ,
    I am getting errors:
    Notice: Undefined property: Post::$comment in c:/xampp/htdocs/blog/app/installers/comment_installer.php on line 15
    Fatel error: call to a member function create() on a non-object in c:/xampp/htdocs/blog/app/installers/comment_installer.php on line 15

    This is the code:

    <?php
    class CommentInstaller extends AkInstaller
    {
    function up_1()
    {
    $this->createTable('comments', "
    id,
    body,
    post_id
    ");

    Ak::import('post,comment');

    $Post = new Post(1);
    $Post->comment->create(array('body'=>"I liked Gaudi's buildings")); //This is line 15
    $Post->save();
    }

    function down_1()
    {
    $this->dropTable('comments');
    }
    }

    ?>

    Seems you have not declared the associations in the models.

    • CommentAuthorGKSR
     
    Yes I have declared the associations in the models. Look at them..

    comment.php

    <?php

    class Comment extends ActiveRecord
    {
    var $belongs_to = 'post';
    }

    ?>


    post.php

    <?php

    class Post extends ActiveRecord
    {
    var $has_many = 'comments';

    function validate()
    {
    $this->validatesPresenceOf('title');
    $this->validatesPresenceOf('body');
    }
    }

    ?>

    Even when i add a new comment, its not showing the added comment. Its just showing the flash msg ( your comment has been added). But the comment was saved in the database.
    ?????

    it displays the default thing saying


    Getting started

    1.
    Use script/generate to create your models and controllers

    To see all available options, run it without parameters.
    2.
    Set up a default routes (config/routes.php) or edit the default controller (app/controllers/page_controller.php)
