Problems with zend-tool reporting that providers are not valid
- by Mario
I have recently setup XAMPP 1.7.3 and ZendFramework 1.10.4 on a new computer and many of the commands that I normally use now fail.
Here are the steps I used to setup and test ZF.
First I added the ZF library folder (C:\xampp\php\ZendFramework-1.10.4\library) to the include path in php.ini.
Then I added the ZF bin folder (C:\xampp\php\ZendFramework-1.10.4\bin) to my Path system variable.
To test that everything is configured correctly I ran the command "zf show version" from the command line. The result is "Zend Framework Version: 1.9.6".
Immediately something appears to be wrong. The file that is downloaded is "ZendFramework-1.10.4.zip" and the reported version is 1.9.6. I have re-downloaded the latest version (1.10.4) and removed old copy. Still the incorrect version number problem persisted.
Having done some research there is a bug in the ZF knowledgebase that version 1.10.3 reports a wrong version number. So that may explain the version number problem.
Moving forward I tried to run some zf-tool commands and certain commands reports that the action or provider is not valid.
Example:
C:\xampp\htdocs>zf create project test
Creating project at C:/xampp/htdocs/test
C:\xampp\htdocs>cd test
C:\xampp\htdocs\test>zf create controller Test
Creating a controller at C:\xampp\htdocs\test/application/controllers/TestController.php
...
Updating project profile 'C:\xampp\htdocs\test/.zfproject.xml'
C:\xampp\htdocs\test>zf create action test Test
Creating an action named test inside controller at C:\xampp\htdocs\test/application/controllers/TestController.php
...
Updating project profile 'C:\xampp\htdocs\test/.zfproject.xml'
C:\xampp\htdocs\test>zf enable layout
An Error Has Occurred
Action 'enable' is not a valid action.
...
C:\xampp\htdocs\test>zf create form Test
An Error Has Occurred
Provider 'form' is not a valid provider.
...
Can any one provide insight into these errors and how to correct them?
