Page Type Controller Problem - Can't access function via URL

Permalink March 25, 2014 at 5:15 AM

Hi there,

i'm struggeling with this issue for a long time..
So I got a pagetype "startsite.php" under /themes/llb. The controller lies under /controllers/page_types/startsite.php..

So I know that the controller works, cause the view and on_start functions are beeing called. Seehttp://cb-web.dyndns.org/llb/ (u see a text on the top " here in the onstart" which is echoed in the controller). Now i got a test-function foo, which i try to fire viahttp://cb-web.dyndns.org/llb/foo,... but that won't work. I get a 404 error.

here the controllers code:

<?php 
class StartsitePageTypeController extends Controller {
   public function on_start(){
      $this->json = Loader::helper('json');
      echo "here in the onstart";
   }
   public function view(){
   }
   public function action_foo(){
      echo "foooo";
   }
}

I'm not sure where the problem is laying, but could it be that it's a apache issue? here my apache code:

Alias /llb/ "/share/www/llb/"
        <Directory /share/www/llb/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AllowOverride All
                Order allow,deny
                allow from all
                RewriteEngine On
        </Directory>

PS: i tried naming the function foo action_foo and call it like that. it didnt make any difference though, and i heard that only is a issue for blocks..

i'm a bit further in the whole problem-solving.

if i add the page-type to the root site in the sitemap, the controller starts (echo from on_start displays). but i can't acces the "foo" function via /llb/foo..
BUT, if i add the page-type to a sub-site, like "/llb/test", i'm able to call the function via "/llb/test/foo"..

why is it not working on the root.site?
