yii bootstrap (v2.0.3) extension invalid path alias

I followed the Yii-Bootstrap installation instructions on http://www.cniska.net/yii-bootstrap/setup.html but the path alias set in config/main.php doesn't work for me:

<?php
// path alias for bootstrap
Yii::setPathOfAlias('bootstrap',Yii::getPathOfAlias(dirname(__FILE__).'/../extensions/bootstrap'));
// This is the main Web application configuration. Any writable
// CWebApplication properties can be configured here.
return array(
...

protected/extensions/bootstrap/... is my bootstrap directory.

If I want to use it in my layouts/main.php

Yii::app()->bootstrap->register();

it says "Alias "bootstrap.components.Bootstrap" is invalid. Make sure it points to an existing directory or file. "

I tried lots of stuff but can't get it to work. Any ideas?

In my case i just renamed the protected/extensions/bootstrap/components/Bootstrap.php to protected/extensions/bootstrap/components/bootstrap.php

And everything works fine.

I ran into this on my production server even though it worked fine locally.

The solution was to grant apache ownership to the yii installation:

sudo chown www-data:www-data -R /var/www/yourapp

previously ownership was root and apache couldn't see the files

Have you tried to load bootstrap automatically on you config file? Add 'bootstrap' to you preload array. Here is mine:

'preload'=>array('log', 'bootstrap'),
