Hi Im attempting to work my way thru the booklink tutorial.
Im using wamp on windows xp.

I have successfully got as far as - ./script/generate scaffold Book and ./script/generate scaffold Author
these command ran without any apparent error but when I attempt to select http://localhost/booklink/author from the tutorial I get a 404 error.

So I guess my routing isnt correct either in config/routes or my http.conf. Im a newbie at unix so I would be gratefull if someone could point out my mistake.

my http conf for booklinks contains


Alias /booklink "c:/wamp/www/booklink/public"

<Directory "c:/wamp/www/booklink/public">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

and my routes.php

<?php

// You can find more about routes on /lib/AkRouters.php and /test/test_AkRouter.php

$Map->connect('/:controller/:action/:id', array('controller' => 'page', 'action' => 'index'));
$Map->connect('/', array('controller' => 'page', 'action' => 'index'));

?>


Thank you for your time.

Hi, according to phpinfo mod_rewrite is loaded an an apache module so with my limited knowledge Im guessing that it is active.

Thu with further 'investigation' I do believe it is something to do with rewriting.
if I access http://localhost/akelos it renders the welcome screen from
http://localhost/akelos/public/index.htm

However http://localhost/booklink - displays a directory listing
http://localhost/booklink/public/ - displays index.htm

http://localhost/booklink/public/.htaccess contains

# If your Akelos Framework application is accessed via an Alias directive,
# then you MUST also set the RewriteBase in this htaccess file.
#
# Example:
# Alias /myakelosapp /path/to/myakelosapp/public
RewriteBase /booklink
.. etc.

Thanks for your help

** Edit ** - thanks for your help- I have managed to get it working now looks like the above error was due to me getting tired looks like I had missed off the public directory in the httpd alias.

Can any one recomend a simple tutorial for http conf and mod_rewrite.

Thanks
