Yii Web Application Creation

Yii 1.1 Installation and Setup
1

when i creating the yii web application

if i give root@ubuntu:/var/www# cd yii/framework/yiic webapp s

it will shows like that

bash: cd: yii/framework/yiic: Not a directory

what is the problem???

2

For this do one thing,

Copy entire framework folder and paste it inside your application.

Then open index.php file and change framework path to :

$yii=dirname(FILE).’/framework/yii.php’;

Hope it will solve your problem… :)

i saw the framework folder there is no yiic folder…just have the yiic.php file… is it the one creatinfg the problem???

4

There is no need for yiic folder.

There must be a file named as yiic.php in the framework folder.

5

Also check the path once again in the index.php file from your application that it is pointing to the framework folder at right position.

From your first post I see you gave this command [color=#1C2837][size=2]


cd yii/framework/yiic webapp s

why?[/size][/color]

[color=#1C2837][size=2]

[/size][/color]

[size=“2”][color="#1c2837"]You don’t need to “cd” you need to run the yiic script.[/color][/size]

[size="2"][color="#1c2837"]
