I got the same problem on mac.

How did you solve it?

Dan

When deployed on Windows 7 with WAMP, the following error appears:

Fatal error: Class 'Router' not found in D:\private\env\Wamp\www\episode\vendors\cake\dispatcher.php on line 281

Did anyone manage to install this CMS on Windows?

Hi.

Thanks for sharing this useful behaviour. I'm having trouble using it. If anyone could help, I'd appreciate it. I have a hABTM relationship using a joiner table, and for some reason, whodidit tries to look for a created_by column in that table, even though it doesn't have its own model. It's trying a left join with this non-existant column when CakePHP tries to delete from the joiner table, causing the deletes to fail, giving me duplicate rows.

Is there a way around this? Is it a bug in whodidit, or am I just using it incorrectly somehow?

Thank you for your time,
Zoe.
Hey Zoe,

which version of CakePHP are you using?
Can you post your model relationship?
Do you use custom queries?

Daniel,

I'm new to Cake and this is my first app using Cake. This is one part of my app that I have been trying to figure out over the last couple of weeks. If this works I will be in hog heaven! My question is that I believe you said that the created_by field has to be int. Is that correct? I'm using cakes UUID and wondering will I still be able to use the behavior.
I didn't try to use UUID, but I guess it should work! Let me know!

I like this. Thanks for sharing. I am using it in my project. Although I thought "Whodunit" was a bit more clever as far as naming. Have you considered it?

It's like Sherlock Holmes. Murder mysteries. Like when good database table rows are bludgeoned to death by ill-mannered users. This behavior helps us solve the case.
Cheers for the suggestion Mike! I'm not a native English speaker.... therefore I didn't have probably the best naming idea!

Hey Jon,

you should use


var $actsAs = array('WhoDidIt');

and not


var $actAs = array('WhoDidIt');
