hi any news on rc3 ?

quasiperfect

hmm i get almost the same error with rc3

Fuel\Core\Fuel_Exception [ Error ]: Database type not defined in fuel configuration

Harro

I assume that's the same error? 'dev' has been changed to 'development'...

quasiperfect

nope the same error message
the config looks like this

return array(
 'active' => Config::get('environment'),
 Fuel::DEVELOPMENT => array(
  'type'   => 'mysql',
  'connection' => array(
   'hostname'   => 'localhost',
   'database'   => 'fuel',
   'username'   => 'root',
   'password'   => '',
   'persistent' => false,
  ),
  'table_prefix' => '',
  'charset'      => 'utf8',
  'caching'      => false,
  'profiling'    => true,
 ),
 Fuel::PRODUCTION => array(
  'type'   => 'mysql',
  'connection' => array(
   'hostname'   => 'localhost',
   'database'   => 'fuel',
   'username'   => 'root',
   'password'   => '',
   'persistent' => false,
  ),
  'table_prefix' => '',
  'charset'      => 'utf8',
  'caching'      => false,
  'profiling'    => false,
 )
);

By default, it will load the database defined as 'active', which you define here as Config::get('environment'). What's defined there?

quasiperfect

in config.php i have

'environment' => Fuel::DEVELOPMENT

i even changed the db config in

return array(
 'active' => 'development',
 'development' => array(
  'type'   => 'mysql',
  'connection' => array(
   'hostname'   => 'localhost',
   'database'   => 'fuel',
   'username'   => 'root',
   'password'   => 'mypashere',
   'persistent' => false,
  ),
  'table_prefix' => '',
  'charset'      => 'utf8',
  'caching'      => false,
  'profiling'    => true,
 )
);

same problem

How do you create the database connection? When the DB class creates an instance, it will
- load the db config file
- if no named instance is loaded, it gets db.active from the config
- if no instance by that name exists, it fetches the config (in your case db.development)
- it checks if a type is defined
- if not, throw the "Database type not defined in {$name} configuration" error So assuming that your db.active is indeed correct (it contains 'development'), and you have a 'development' section in your database config defining the type 'mysql', I'm out of explainations. I suggest debugging the core/classes/database/connection class, in particular the instance() method, to see what's going wrong.

i downloaded the rc3 zip
made the settings in config.php
added the db info in the db config
configured the session to autoinit and use the db
and called $session = Session::instance(); in welcome controller
i need to autoload the db class or something like that ?

quasiperfect

solved my problem in the session config is
'database' => '' // name of the database name (as configured in config/db.php)
i was writing the actual database name
i'm a idot sorry for the trouble WanWizard and thanks for your help

Dan was planning to release it wednesday, not sure what the delay is. The current dev branch is very stable, more so than RC2(.1) even as far more bugs have been fixed.

Just switched to newest code. Why do I get this?

Fuel\Core\Fuel_Exception [ Error ]: Database type not defined in development configuration

This is my config/db.php. Edit: dev is defined! Edit #2: I don't see what he is angry about!

I'm not sure if this is your problem, but at some point the config environment was changed from "dev" to "development."

daGrevis

Thanks, Mitchell. That solved the problem. x)
