I asked a similar question months ago (see How do I write Routing Chains for a Subdomain in Zend Framework in a routing INI file?), on how to write chaining rules in an app.ini format. The answer to this question worked wonderfully! Now, however, I have upgraded to the latest version of the Zend Framework 1.9.5 (I needed to upgrade for another issue) and now my subdomains no longer work!
To clarify, if I visit subdomain.domain.com, it does not recognize my rule.
However, if I visit subdomain.domain.com/somepage/ it does recognize my routing rule.
Here is my code:
;; the following is apparently being ignored, and does not work
routes.manager.type = "Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Hostname"
routes.manager.route = "manager.sitename.com"
routes.manager.defaults.module = "manager"
;; this is not being ignored and works!
routes.manager.chains.settings.type = "Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Static"
routes.manager.chains.settings.route = "/settings"
routes.manager.chains.settings.defaults.controller = "manager"
routes.manager.chains.settings.defaults.action = "settings"
So for example, if I go to manager.sitename.com, it just redirects to my default index and controller (does not access the module, $this-getRequest()-getModuleName() is blank).
However, if I go to manager.sitename.com/settings, the page comes up! This app.ini configuration works fine in ZF 1.7.8, But now since I upgraded to 1.9.5, it no longer works.
I have tried adding routes.manager.defaults.controller = "manager" and routes.manager.defaults.action = 'index" to my configuration as well, but this didn't work.
There is not much out there on the internet with chaining and app.ini dealing with Zend Framework. Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
