Fatal Error: Call To Undefined Method ::tablename()

Hi all, I’m still fairly new to the Yii framework but already love the way Yii works.

Wonder if anyone can help me with a recent issue. I generated all my models and controllers using the Code Generator (gii) and have had no problem until now.

I have a table called ‘tutor_schedule’ in my database with the model name ‘TutorSchedule’. However when I tried to load up anything to do with this model, I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method TutorSchedule::tableName() in ‘C:\xampp\yii\framework\db\ar\CActiveRecord.php on line 2310’

I’ve tried ‘index’ and ‘view’ (eg /index.php/tutorschedule/index) and none of them work. I haven’t changed the autogenerated code or made any changes to the DB tables so I’m confused by the error especially as all my other Controllers are working.

Many thanks!

Show the code of TutorSchedule model.

Here’s the code for the model:


<?php


/**

 * This is the model class for table "tutor_schedule".

 *

 * The followings are the available columns in table 'tutor_schedule':

 * @property integer $sched_id

 * @property integer $tutor_id

 * @property string $date

 * @property integer $day_id

 * @property string $time

 */

class TutorSchedule extends CActiveRecord

{

	/**

	 * Returns the static model of the specified AR class.

	 * @param string $className active record class name.

	 * @return TutorSchedule the static model class

	 */

	public static function model($className=__CLASS__)

	{

		return parent::model($className);

	}


	/**

	 * @return string the associated database table name

	 */

	public function tableName()

	{

		return 'tutor_schedule';

	}


	/**

	 * @return array validation rules for model attributes.

	 */

	public function rules()

	{

		// NOTE: you should only define rules for those attributes that

		// will receive user inputs.

		return array(

			array('tutor_id, day_id', 'numerical', 'integerOnly'=>true),

			array('date, time', 'safe'),

			// The following rule is used by search().

			// Please remove those attributes that should not be searched.

			array('sched_id, tutor_id, date, day_id, time', 'safe', 'on'=>'search'),

		);

	}


	/**

	 * @return array relational rules.

	 */

	public function relations()

	{

		// NOTE: you may need to adjust the relation name and the related

		// class name for the relations automatically generated below.

		return array(

		);

	}


	/**

	 * @return array customized attribute labels (name=>label)

	 */

	public function attributeLabels()

	{

		return array(

			'sched_id' => 'Sched',

			'tutor_id' => 'Tutor',

			'date' => 'Date',

			'day_id' => 'Day',

			'time' => 'Time',

		);

	}


	/**

	 * Retrieves a list of models based on the current search/filter conditions.

	 * @return CActiveDataProvider the data provider that can return the models based on the search/filter conditions.

	 */

	public function search()

	{

		// Warning: Please modify the following code to remove attributes that

		// should not be searched.


		$criteria=new CDbCriteria;


		$criteria->compare('sched_id',$this->sched_id);

		$criteria->compare('tutor_id',$this->tutor_id);

		$criteria->compare('date',$this->date,true);

		$criteria->compare('day_id',$this->day_id);

		$criteria->compare('time',$this->time,true);


		return new CActiveDataProvider($this, array(

			'criteria'=>$criteria,

		));

	}

}

Seems ok.

Can you also paste some code where this model is used? for example, index action.

The only thing I am using is the standard Controller for this model which was autogenerated:


<?php


class TutorScheduleController extends Controller

{

	/**

	 * @var string the default layout for the views. Defaults to '//layouts/column2', meaning

	 * using two-column layout. See 'protected/views/layouts/column2.php'.

	 */

	public $layout='//layouts/column2';


	/**

	 * @return array action filters

	 */

	public function filters()

	{

		return array(

			'accessControl', // perform access control for CRUD operations

			'postOnly + delete', // we only allow deletion via POST request

		);

	}


	/**

	 * Specifies the access control rules.

	 * This method is used by the 'accessControl' filter.

	 * @return array access control rules

	 */

	public function accessRules()

	{

		return array(

			array('allow',  // allow all users to perform 'index' and 'view' actions

				'actions'=>array('index','view'),

				'users'=>array('*'),

			),

			array('allow', // allow authenticated user to perform 'create' and 'update' actions

				'actions'=>array('create','update'),

				'users'=>array('@'),

			),

			array('allow', // allow admin user to perform 'admin' and 'delete' actions

				'actions'=>array('admin','delete'),

				'users'=>array('admin'),

			),

			array('deny',  // deny all users

				'users'=>array('*'),

			),

		);

	}


	/**

	 * @param integer $id the ID of the model to be displayed

	 * If creation is successful, the browser will be redirected to the 'view' page.

	 */

	public function actionCreate()

	{

		$model=new TutorSchedule;


		// Uncomment the following line if AJAX validation is needed

		// $this->performAjaxValidation($model);


		if(isset($_POST['TutorSchedule']))

		{

			$model->attributes=$_POST['TutorSchedule'];

			if($model->save())

				$this->redirect(array('view','id'=>$model->sched_id));

		}


		$this->render('create',array(

			'model'=>$model,

	}

	{

		// Uncomment the following line if AJAX validation is needed

		if(isset($_POST['TutorSchedule']))

		{

			$model->attributes=$_POST['TutorSchedule'];

			if($model->save())

				$this->redirect(array('view','id'=>$model->sched_id));

		}


		$this->render('update',array(

			'model'=>$model,

		));

	}


	/**

	 * Deletes a particular model.

	 * If deletion is successful, the browser will be redirected to the 'admin' page.

	 * @param integer $id the ID of the model to be deleted

	 */

	public function actionDelete($id)

	{

		$this->loadModel($id)->delete();


		// if AJAX request (triggered by deletion via admin grid view), we should not redirect the browser

		if(!isset($_GET['ajax']))

			$this->redirect(isset($_POST['returnUrl']) ? $_POST['returnUrl'] : array('admin'));

	}

	 */

	}

	 */

	public function actionAdmin()

	{

		$model=new TutorSchedule('search');

		$model->unsetAttributes();  // clear any default values

		if(isset($_GET['TutorSchedule']))

			$model->attributes=$_GET['TutorSchedule'];


		$this->render('admin',array(

			'model'=>$model,

		));

	}


	/**

	 * If the data model is not found, an HTTP exception will be raised.

	public function loadModel($id)

	{

		$model=TutorSchedule::model()->findByPk($id);

		if($model===null)

			throw new CHttpException(404,'The requested page does not exist.');

		return $model;

	}


	/**

	protected function performAjaxValidation($model)

	{

		if(isset($_POST['ajax']) && $_POST['ajax']==='tutor-schedule-form')

		{

			echo CActiveForm::validate($model);

			Yii::app()->end();

		}

	}

}



Hmm, everything seems ok.

Plz make sure that you have not created another class named TutorSchedule (widget etc)

According to this comment, try adding an empty tablePrefix to the config OR add a prefix to all tables and use the tablePrefix property - this is the recommended way BTW.

Also, in your models, wrap the table name in two thingy-magingies {{table_name}}


public function tableName()

    {

        return '{{inventory}}';

    }





'components' => array(

            // uncomment the following to use a MySQL database

            'db' => array(

                'connectionString' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=xxx',

                'emulatePrepare' => true,

                'username' => 'xxx',

                'password' => 'xxx',

                'charset' => 'utf8',

                'tablePrefix' => '', // HERE!!!!

                'enableProfiling' => false,

                'schemaCachingDuration' => false

            ),



Thanks for the suggestions guys.

ORey, you were right. It was giving me the error because I had added a class under the components folder with the same name. Didn’t know that would cause issues. Many thanks again.
