CodeIgniter Extended Core Controller

I'm stumped on this one.

With my CodeIgniter application set up on a WAMP server locally, everything is fine. All of my classes extend my controller (MY_Controller)

However, when the application is on the live environment which is Linux based, it throws an error that the MY_Controller class doesn't exist.

Have I forgot about a configuration variable somewhere or something like that with a path to the application/core folder?

I've looked for other threads with the same issue across Google, found a solution that worked for most people of using parent::Controller(); instead of parent::__construct() but that doesn't resolve this for me.

Sorry for resurrecting an old post but this issue plagued me a little while ago.

I figured I'd add this link: codeigniter MY_Controller not found

Just in-case there is a poor soul who's banging their head against the table and they haven't come across the above post before.

Thanks to Maxime Morin and Phil Sturgeon:

function __autoload($class)
{
    if (strpos($class, 'CI_') !== 0)
    {
        if (file_exists($file = APPPATH . 'core/' . $class . EXT))
        {
            include $file;
        }
    }
}

Is it possible that the case of the filename is incorrect (ex: My_controller instead of My_Controller) and your online environment is case sensitive and your local environment is case_insensitive. I've had that problem a lot
