Thank you so much for your useful responses. I am now loading it the right way, using localhost/outages but I get this error message: Not Found The requested URL /outages was not found on this server. I have gone through my files and made sure they are in the right places. Tayo6

For those who came here from search. In my case beforeFilter() caused this problem. See stackoverflow.com/questions/16921021/… for more info. — ᴍᴇʜᴏᴠ

It's difficult to tell exactly which URL from your description, but assuming you let localhost point directly to your webapplication, it should be http://localhost/outages

By using localhost/app you're trying to get the index of the 'AppController' (which exists, but is normally not used directly). To get a 'home' page for your app, your should use the PagesController.

Everything seems to be correct perhaps only problem is in the URL you are trying to access.

Try to access with the application root folder name which contains /app, /lib, /vendors etc.

For e.g. http://localhost/testapp

The first page to be run on browser, you can make that setting in app/Config/routes.php

Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'outages', 'action' => 'index'));
