I added the following code in the controller user that has a method called actionUpdate and everything stopped working. I have two doubts
what error am i doing
how can i make yii display errors
public function actions()
f
return array(
'edit'=>'application.controllers.user.actionUpdate',
);
g
Iam using Yii 1.1.5
have you created and save an actionUpdate.php action class in your controllers/user folder?
i used Gii to bake my first app and in the Yii guide i found this code and added it. Isn’t this function to add alias to existing function
Where should i create this file. I can find it anywhere

i Do have view/user/update.php
I think you didnt read through the tuto… please read carefully: http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/1.1/en/basics.controller#action
You will see that by using that approach you have to include a subfolder inside the folder ‘controllers’ with the name of the controller that holds that particular action.
So, for an action declaration like this:
‘update’=>‘application.controllers.user.UpdateAction’,
it says that the update action is within a file named UpdateAction.php in the protected/controllers/user/ folder.
IMHO i suggest you stick with the normal approach on CRUD design and once you fully understand the concept move further -I did the same.
Fine i will stick to crud
Fine i fixed the iisue
Congrats…
