Link to PDF

[taxast]

I'm trying to create a link to a .pdf file, but all i get is an error somewhere in kohana.php or a controller

Can someone please decrypt this error for me?

 

Here's the error code when i try to open the link:

thank you!

and this is the HTML section:

 

<a href="<?php echo url::base(); ?>assets/algemenevoorwaarden.pdf"</a>

[gwolgamott]

<a href="<?php echo url::base(); ?>assets/algemenevoorwaarden.pdf"</a>

 

run some error code. Echo that php section in a test to make sure it is getting what you want. To make sure it is in fact truly echoing what you want it to. In case you need to add a "/" to that code or something may be your issue.

I've tried that gwolgamott, but still no succes.. the strange thing however is that it works flawlessly in localhost mode..

But when i upload to the server things get messy..

 

any change that the problem lies in htaccess?

[gwolgamott]

Maybe, but I don't know truthfully. Maybe should try to using some other method of getting your url. Could be that is the issue too the the htaccess just doesn't like your method dunno. Try using some of these fucntions to see if can get what you want as well may be an easier work around instead.

cwd();
echo dirname(__FILE__);
echo dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

Ok, there's been a change in error..

 

The stack trace error is now gone, and i got this in return:

 

This text is generated by __call. If you expected the index page, you need to use: welcome/index/o/algemenevoorwaarden.pdf

 

any ideas?

[gwolgamott]

What'd u end up using to get that error?

[taxast]

changed html in:

 

assets -> more_info (given that the controllers name is more_info.php>

<a href="<?php echo url::base(); ?>more_info/algemenevoorwaarden.pdf"</a>

 

that's the only thing actually ..

[gwolgamott]

<a href="<?php echo url::base(); ?>more_info/algemenevoorwaarden.pdf"</a>

 

Ok was just curious. That error almost reads as if it's just trying to find something that isn't there or may be that it will not let you into the folder to view anything except the index page. Check that you have permissions to access that file. These errors are like the check engine lights on a car sometimes... sure something is wrong... but what ha.

 

 

Btw I see something that maybe you are taking care of with the php call. Although if not then maybe that is it. The html link tag is never closed. <a href="<?php echo url::base(); ?>more_info/algemenevoorwaarden.pdf"> Something here</a>.  That shouldn't cause your error though, just a note to make sure your link will work when this does run.
