Fatal error: Class 'CI_Model' not found in

My problem is to make super model class with common functions for routines with models(findByPk, FindByAttributes and so on).

For thjs I decided to make new library that extends CI_Model class and to extend all models from MY_Model class.

So I added MY_Model to $autoload['libraries'] array.

When adding model to this array I've got error:

Unable to load the requested class: Model

But main problem is that on application start I get:

Fatal error: Class 'CI_Model' not found

CI_Model class in core folder exist. So please say What maybe the explanation "why I cant extend CI_Model class in my library with MY_Model!"

Maybe it's late, but for future readers.

before loading your library in the constructor of the controller class, load any model of your creation then load the library that extends the CI_model. check the below: 

    public function __construct() {
    parent::__construct();
    $this->load->model('User_model');
    $this->load->helper('url_helper');
    $this->load->library('session');
    $this->load->library('form_validation');
    $this->load->library('admin_auth');
    $this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
    }

as you see, that I have loaded the User_model then the admin_auth. hope this helps

Check in

  • class CI_Model which should be in ../system/core/Model.php. and your extends model name same as class name.
  • create your model in application\models\your_model.php.
  • $autoload['model'] = array('your_model');

use

$autoload['models']

for loading models automatically, instead of $autoload['libraries']
